Ravi Shankar & Yehudi Menuhin-Prabhati

[ritupm]

Lifelong Fav ! TABLAS @ 2:19 leading to YEHUDI MENUHIN "VIOLIN" to Melt to ! Especially from 2:59 ! Violin Music to Surrender to ! ( I lost my heart @ 2:59 even as a young kid! :)

Gosh the Violins so intense like of Yehudi Menuhin, Prem Joshua can create a tempest WITHIN better than those thunder clouds, Bansuri & Sitar Music that invigorate & make me lose my heart to ! (..as Sitar strings in rain, can almost make one "feel" the breeze of cool fragrant monsoons in lush open nature! :)

Absolutely Mesmerizing ! :) & Nostalgic. :) Reminds me WHY I melt to the touching strings of the VIOLIN in particular & though not much featured here, the awesome SITAR ! :) &, JUST as especially the TABLAS ! :)

"SWARA KAKALI" too is among my all-time favorite "Jugalbandi" of Ravi Shankar's Sitar, & awesome Yehudi Menuhin's Violin from this 1967 "East Meets West" Concert. :)

This Violin clip should've been longer than 111 seconds, from where I start to really LOVE it, @ 2:21 LOL! :)

Heavenly sound

This is incredibly captivating. The visual makes the music and the music makes the visual. The only thing I would've asked for was that it was a computer generated motion picture rather than be still, maybe of the Big Bang or something.

Aesthetics of Music take us to places where the mind cannot reach.

A masterpiece of music!

[Silverlin212]

@josyula547 Music is produced by the Mind, and where music takes us is to a place where the mind CAN reach, but only if it is to let go everything consuming it, as to embrace it's essence.

[Fusion2222]

this is awesome!

Violin is well suited to Indian classical music because it has no frets and microtones are easily expressed. As with all musicians, Yehudi Menhuin brings his culture to his interpretation of the Raga. Although faithful to the rythym and scale, there is a distinct Jewishness to this piece. Remember that Ragas are 90 % improvisation. Wow! Vedic Klezmer! Also India and Israel are not that far apart...

[Lukecash12]

A big part of the raga is injecting one's self into it.

[Lukecash12]

But, of course, This isn't a raga.

Weltklasse! Zwei wunderbare Instrumente, zwei großartige Musiker - ein geniales Stück!

Bendita sea la Paz Espiritual en el Amor y Sabiduría de nuestra madre La Creación:

La Creación es mi compañera, y no desearía a nadie más.

La Creación me alimenta con su verde pradera y me conduce al agua fresca.

La Creación restaura mi psique y me conduce en el camino correcto,

En su nombre.

[JavierVMaldonado]

También, si vago en el oscuro valle, no temo ninguna desgracia,

Porque tú, Creación, estás junto a mí, tú me confortas.

A través de la Creación, la bonanza y misericordia me siguen toda mi vida

Y podría permanecer en la Casa de la Creación por siempre.
