Ragani

Best of Both Worlds
Blending East Indian sacred chants with world instruments in rhythm and sound, Ragani began her participation in kirtan and Indian devotional music in the late-1970s. At the age of eight, Ragani met the legendary yoga master Sri Swami Rama who later personally trained her in the sciences of yoga, meditation, and eastern music. She traveled with him to India and the Far East, and since has led kirtan in India, Malaysia, Singapore, Curacao, and the United States for the past twenty years. In 2001, she founded Milwaukee's premier East Side Kirtan event, second only to New York for the largest ongoing kirtan scene in the nation.

This is her debut kirtan CD and was released in the spring of 2003. It features Michael Kashou, who played fretless bass on Garbage's platinum debut CD.
This CD was released as a tribute to Sri Swami Rama, who left this world in 1996. Proceeds from the sale of this CD will benefit the charitable hospital in the foothills of northern India and nonprofit organizations established by Swami Rama.

Here's what others are saying about this release:

"Ragani steers clear of sappiness, infusing her music with tonal clarity and resonant devotion. The back-up musicians and production quality are uniformly excellent. Ragani's version of 'Gan Gan Ganapti' will make you want to dance around the room with a smile on your face, while her recording of 'Rama Rama' is hauntingly beautiful... If you're looking for some great music to form the soundtrack for your spiritual life, Best of Both Worlds is a winning ticket."
- Linda Johnsen, M.S., Contributing Editor, Yoga International


"There's no mistaking it, chanter Ragani and her backing crew definitely have spirit. There's pure joy being poured into the call-and-response style kirtans presented on Best of Both Worlds... It's an infectious atmosphere, you can't help but want to move with the music."
- Music Design In Review


"Beautiful... it is of such high quality, so rich, and obviously created with love. The more I listen and the more I open up to it, the deeper the music penetrates." - Richard Kenyon, former Religion Writer and Book Editor for The Milwaukee Journal, former Editorial Board Yoga International
