The instrumentation is different from tradition (both tone-wise and the fact that he's using a double violin for Aberi), but for the most part the melodic and structural elements are fairly representative. The feel of the raga is definitely conveyed accurately.

That said, the pieces you mentioned are heavily focused on the improvisational elements like the alaapana and the kalpanaswaram. There are also more structured and lyrical songs and keerthanas that you'll see a lot of recordings of.
