Top 10 for Dec

Anoushka Shankar's 'Voice of the Moon' makes Daily Times '10 tracks to hear before you die'

It is through music that we express ourselves and it is through music that we find peace in our busy lives. Most of us listen to music on our way to our universities or workplaces and we also listen to music while working or studying. Music is an important part of our lives and it is impossible to imagine a world without music because of its presence in everything around us. From the sounds of nature to the way the sun rises and sets, there is music in everything.

It took millenniums for music to evolve into its current state where it exists in diverse forms and genres. Normally people prefer one genre over another, therefore, this list is not confined to one particular genre. The aim is to bring different genres together in one place. The tracks are also arranged randomly because it is extremely difficult to compare artists whose comparison is impossible. The purpose of this list is to celebrate musical diversity.

This track by Anoushka Shankar, the daughter of the legendary Sitarist, is extremely beautiful. It was released in 2005 as a part of her album Rise which marked Anoushka's journey into new horizons of music. With this track, Anoushka evokes various emotions in the hearts of her listeners.
