CONCERTS
Mumbai Jazz Mumbai Jazz is a spectacular jazz/raga mix-up matching fusion legends Larry Coryell (guitar) and Ned McGowan (flute) with India’s foremost bansuri player, Ronu Majumdar. Percussionist Rajesh Rajbhatt completes the line-up on the rarely heard pakhawaj, a two-headed drum offering a deeper, rootsier alternative to the tabla. Larry Coryell guitar, Ronu Majumdar bansuri (Indian flute), Ned McGowan flute, Rajesh Rajbhatt pakhawaj (percussion)
All four musicians are accomplished performers and composers in their own right: Coryell just about invented jazz-rock and Majumdar has worked with Ry Cooder and George Harrison. This brilliant collaboration has resulted in powerful new works exploring the melodic richness of raga and dynamic rhythmic interplay common to both Indian classical music and jazz. Join us for an evening guaranteed to sound like nothing you’ve heard before!

Gitanjali ‘ I was tired and sleeping on my idle bed and imagined all work had ceased. In the morning I woke up and found my garden full with wonders of flowers.’ he celebrations of Tagore’s 150th birthday continue with our T production of Gitanjali, a specially commissioned audio-visual concert of poetry, music and dance.

CONCERTS The Vedas are an ancient body of texts written in Sanskrit which were considered to contain ‘sacred knowledge’ handed down over the centuries. They form the fundamental basis for what is now Hinduism, and had a vast influence on philosophies including Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism. Among the most ancient religious texts still in existence, they give a unique view of everyday life in India more than four thousand years ago. Their subject matter is vast and their language as elegant and uplifting as the thoughts contained in them. Sanskrit scholars from India will recite passages from the Vedas and explain their meaning and validity in the twenty-first century and beyond.
Vedic Recitations and Haveli Sangeet 14
Haveli Sangeet is a tradition of music often considered a precursor to dhrupad. Associated with the Vaishnav movement, it is traditionally sung in temples dedicated to the deity Krishna, including the Srinathji temple at Nathdwara in Rajasthan and the temple dedicated to Sri Govardhan Nath ji in Indore.

An evening of Beijing and Kunqu Opera
Come and meet them in this vignette showcase.

We take you into the inner worlds of four very different women in mesmerising opera scenes, presented by the Asian Music Circuit in association with London Jing Kun Opera Association. An auspicious Lion Dance will lead the way from the foyer.

Hari will be presenting Maa, a new work commissioned especially for this concert. ‘Maa encapsulates the message of the mother’s love through melody. It is a journey of lullabies from various cultures around the world. This unique collaboration between the veena and other classical stringed instruments proves that the underlying thread from these different cultures is that their mother tongue is simply music’.

Seminar and Q&A: How old is Dhrupad? Short film on the ‘Art of Dhrupad’ followed by a lecture by Professor Richard Widdess (School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London): ‘How old is Dhrupad?’ The assumption that Indian music, and especially the dhrupad style, is ‘old’ will be re-examined in this lecture. What is the evidence on which this belief is based? Are the ‘origins’ of dhrupad to be found in the Vedic period, in mediaeval theoretical texts, in the Mughal court, or in nineteenth-century vocal lineages (gharana)? Or has dhrupad been re-invented in the post-Independence era? Can music be both old and new at the same time? Richard Widdess is a Professor of Musicology at the Centre of South Asian Studies, SOAS. He focuses on classical and religious music traditions of northern India and Nepal. Prof Widdess teaches aspects of transcription and analysis, historical ethnomusicology, organology, cognition and meaning of music. Wednesday 13 April 2011, 17:45 AMC’s Museum of Asian Music, Bradford Road, London W3 7SP Free to course participants. Open to the public at a cost of £3, payable on entry.
