When I posted the list of concerts in NY I included one
by Wasifuddin Dagar without knowing who he was. I've
learnt a little bit more since then. The NY concert is
one of a tour of concerts/workshops/talks he is doing
over the latter half of Sept through Oct. I don't have
any other details so if you are in the US and want to
catch him you'll have to check your local listings.

If, like me, you don't know of him, Raga Recordings have
a couple of MP3s:-

they are big, 16MB and 9MB. the alap is worth the
download.

WNYC has a Realaudio programme on Dhrupad music which
features WD:-

Both sites have other stuff that might be of interest.

PS sorry for the crap pun.
