Anoushka Shankar in the Festival tonight, with a great band including Tom Farmer and the irrepressible Arun Ghosh.

It was a really enjoyable concert - the band got a real groove going! The understanding and interaction between the musicians was remarkable - and they really seemed into each others' solos!

A brilliant evening.

Easing into Tuesday with some music from a master Indian musician I'd not really explored, Ustad Vilayat Khan. Found this 1969-era compilation, an Indian pressing on EMI/Odeon, at a garage sale in Sacramento last month.

She is one of India’s most well-known sitar players, and she likes to bend genres, merge classical Indian music with pop, jazz, and other styles and genres.

In 2003, Anoushka Shankar was the youngest nominee in the GRAMMY’s “World Music” category; now, at 41, she has released ten studio albums and played with artists like Sting, Lenny Kravitz, Thievery Corporation, Nitin Sawhney, and on Herbie Hancock’s collab album “The Imagine Project” with Chaka Khan and Wayne Shorter.

Also, she is the daughter of Ravi Shankar, the most famous sitar players of all times (who was 61 when she was born and gained worldwide recognition in the late sixties when playing with Beatle George Harrison and classical violinist Yehudi Menuhin), and by that connection also half-sister of Norah Jones.

Here’s “Bright Eyes”, which, according to genius.com, “is the first track on Anoushka Shankar’s 2020 EP ‘Love Letters.’ This highly personal EP is an artistic expression of her pain and sadness after her husband left her for another woman. ‘Bright Eyes’ specifically finds her wondering whether her husband will use his old pet name for her for the woman he is with now. This track features singer Alev Lenz, who sings on four of the EP’s six tracks.”

Bei dieser Anzeige rätsele ich schon eine Weile, was da vor sich geht. Eine zusätzliche Mechanik am Hals kennt man von Banjos, aber hier sind es viele. Und deren Saiten werden zwischen andere Saiten umgeleitet. Auf anderen Fotos sieht man einen Resonanzkörper wie bei einer Sitar und die Aufschrift "made in India". Ist das eine handelsübliche ?

The “Rosetta Stone” for benefit concerts. Indian player and guitarist organized a 1971 which was recorded and filmed. Proceeds were administered by to aid refugees impacted by a complex intersection of political and military turmoil and atrocities, destruction caused by a cyclone, torrential rain and floods, and ensuing starvation and outbreak of disease.

Who fingered rock and roll? Well, Cornershop of course! Who knew mixing the sitar with melodic pop would yield such good results? auditorymusings.net/judy-sucks

I'm glad you liked it! Yeah, my tastes in music are literally all over the map. I love hip hop, reggae, jazz, J-pop and others, but plucked string Instruments are so soothing as you said. For some reason, I prefer these four over piano or acoustic guitar:

Brazilian acoustic folk + + fuzzed out + + trance ragas. Features the great Luka Cortes (who also contributed to the cover art). Notaro plays a "tricordio" that he made, which sounds something like a cross between a and a

"What do you call the ashes of a girl, if not sacred?
--
Remember her. Remember every girl like her, who was lost to us. Every girl that prayed to a god that abandoned her.

Call your rage something holy."
