Starbucks surprise!

Starbucks surprised me this afternoon. I'm sitting here working away on my laptop listening to whatever music is being played... and I almost jumped out of my skin when a Carnatic piece started playing! I mean... really! A very nice one too, with beautiful soft violin and all. It felt so strange! This was followed by an English song which had some alaap in a male voice, Sarod accompaniments (!) and then a female voice with a quality and style much like Shobha Gurtu-ji's.

I'm done with my post, for I need to get up and find out what on EARTH that album was all about!
