The Hanuman Chalisa (a 40-verse Sanskrit hymn to the Monkey God, Hanuman) is an epic verse in Hindu mythology, and is one of the most widely performed pieces in the kirtan canon. While the song has been played in many different styles by many different artists, perhaps none have done it with the same charm and pure vibrant energy as Brenda McMorrow, a rising talent on the kirtan scene.
Brenda's truly original take on this revered chant – "Hanuman Chalisa (Windblown Version)" – melds devotion and fun into a dance-inducing whirlwind.
