The Sounds of India is an album by Ravi Shankar which introduces and explains Hindustani classical music to Western audiences. Released by Columbia Records in 1968, it was influenced by Ali Akbar Khan's The Sounds of India, and recorded and produced by George Avakian in 1957 at Columbia's New York studio. It is regarded today as being of historical interest for showing both Shankar's musical skills and his interest in teaching the West about classical Indian music.

Mantram is Ravi Shankar's effort to set Sanskrit chants from ancient Hindu scriptures to music, and the result is a captivating mix of chant and music. Produced by George Harrison, this collection of mantras and prayers from the Vedas, Upanishads, and other scriptures powerfully transports the listener to a place of peace where it's possible to be one with the universe. This is a wonderful spiritual album and will delight fans of Ravi Shankar sitar music.

As India's greatest 20th century musical ambassador to the world, Ravi Shankar is to be commended for having conscientiously produced an album devoted to the master drummers of India as well as this marvelous collection of classical and folk ensembles featuring the North Indian bamboo flute, known as the bansri or bansuri. This instrument has six finger holes; the South Indian venu has seven or eight. The album features master flutist Vijay Raghav Rao, with accompaniments by tabla master Alla Rakha and various unnamed sitar players. It feels like an ethnomusicological field recording, and some of the tropes bring to mind the music and culture of Southeast Asia. This is a reminder that India resounds with musical elements from regions as diverse as Persia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Tibet, Nepal, China, Burma, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam.

Dark Horse Records issued the album Ravi Shankar's Music Festival from India in February 1976 (March in the UK), a year and a half after the recording sessions. The cover features a group photo of all the participants taken by Arrowsmith under a large cedar tree in the grounds of Friar Park Dark Horse produced a promotional film for the album

India (East Syrian ecclesiastical province). Ravi Shankar (IPA: ; 7 April 1920 – 11 December 2012), born Robindro Shaunkor Chowdhury, his name often preceded by the title Pandit, was an Indian musician and composer who was one of the best-known exponents of the sitar in the second half of the 20th century as a composer of Hindustani classical music. Shankar was born to a Bengali family in Benares, British India, and spent his youth touring India and Europe with the dance group of his brother Uday Shankar. He gave up dancing in 1938 to study sitar playing under court musician Allauddin Khan
