    The provided link for downloading the 2 ragas broadcast on All India Radio doesn't work any more. Unfortunately, I found this site too late. Is there any other way I can get these 2 ragas? An audio CD perhaps? I know that Darbari Kanada is available on video at rudraveena.org, but I'd like to get the audio version. Any help would be greatly appreciated (if possible, could you please send me a short message to: tajjalan@yahoo.com?
