5 out of 5 stars Mesmerizing mix of Indian classical&smooth jazz.......2007-01-23

I first heard Shweta Jhaveri on Putumayo's now out-of-print "Gardens of Eden." While "To a Beloved" is in a shortened version on that compilation,I purchased this album&savored the entire song.

"Anahita" is a marvelous mix of Indian classical and smooth jazz;though it has an Eastern flavor,it was recorded in San Francisco with Bay Area jazz musicians."Invocation" opens the album in a devotional mood."To a Beloved" is a lilting,hypnotic love song."Amidst a mist" is mysterious and almost melancholy."To the Spring" is joyous."A Nosy Dawn" is serene and beautiful,despite its odd name.

"Anahita" is perfect for those who enjoy Indian music and smooth jazz!

5 out of 5 stars Mind-bending.......2006-01-05

I have had this CD since it first came out five years ago and it just grows in power. A sympathetic collaboration between the classical Hindi singer and a modern North American acoustic-electric jazz combo with a psychedelic edge. Spacious and evocative of the seasons, the tracks tingle the spine and allow one to look out the window at the natural world with wonder and awe. Sacred and profane.
