Lakh Khushian, by Harjinder Singh (Srinagar Wale), features Sikh Keertan, or devotional songs. The language is Punjabi but the musical appeal is universal. The singing and the accompaniments are dignified but also light and cheerful. The tabla is crisp and bouncy. The harmonium, which is played in an uncomplicated style, has a rich and soothing tone.
This album is recommended in the Pregnancy category, partly because it is melodic, with simple, steady rhythms. I was listening as I was working on a version of this web page. Onto track four, out of five, at this point. I felt very good. Cool and meditative.
