R. F. Dagar (b.1927) has a particularly deep voice, and excels in articulating the lowest ranges with precise ornaments. The present recital is one of the most potent on the list, especially given the supposed healing properties of Raga Kedar.

The raga, with extended dhrupad proper, is presented on one long track on the CD. It opens with a short spoken benediction.

The liner notes include a transcription of an interview with the performer.
