She was brought up in London, Delhi and California, where she attended high school. She studied sitar with her father from the age of 7, began playing tampura in his concerts at 10, and gave her first solo sitar performances at 13. She signed her first recording contract at 16 and her first three album releases were of Indian Classical performances. Her first cross-over/fusion album – Rise – was released in 2005 and was nominated for a Grammy, in the Contemporary World Music category. Her albums since Breathing Under Water have continued to explore the connections between Indian music and other styles. She has collaborated with some major artists – Sting, Nithin Sawhney, Joshua Bell and George Harrison, as well as with her father, Ravi Shankar, and her half-sister, Norah Jones. She has also performed around the world as a Classical sitar player – playing her father’s sitar concertos with major orchestras. The piece Breathing Under Water was Anoushka Shankar’s fifth album, and her second of original fusion music.

  • Classification of Indian Musical Instruments with the General
    Classification of Indian Musical Instruments With the general background and perspective of the entire field of Indian Instrumental Music as explained in previous chapters, this study will now proceed towards a brief description of Indian Musical Instruments. Musical Instruments of all kinds and categories were invented by the exponents of the different times and places, but for the technical purposes a systematic-classification of these instruments was deemed necessary from the ancient time. The classification prevalent those days was formulated in India at least two thousands years ago. The first reference is in the Natyashastra of Bharata. He classified them as ‘Ghana Vadya’, ‘Avanaddha Vadya’, ‘Sushira Vadya’ and ‘Tata Vadya’.1 Bharata used word ‘Atodhya Vadya’ for musical instruments. The term Atodhya is explained earlier than in Amarkosa and Bharata might have adopted it. References: Some references with respect to classification of Indian Musical Instruments are listed below: 1. Bharata refers Musical Instrument as ‘Atodhya Vadya’. Vishnudharmotta Purana describes Atodhya (Ch. XIX) of four types – Tata, Avnaddha, Ghana and Sushira. Later, the term ‘Vitata’ began to be used by some writers in place of Avnaddha. 2. According to Sangita Damodara, Tata Vadyas are favorite of the God, Sushira Vadyas favourite of the Gandharvas, whereas Avnaddha Vadyas of the Rakshasas, while Ghana Vadyas are played by Kinnars. 3. Bharata, Sarangdeva (Ch. VI) and others have classified the musical instruments under four heads: 1 Fundamentals of Indian Music, Dr. Swatantra Sharma , p-86 53 i. Tata (String Instruments) ii. Avanaddha (Instruments covered with membrane) iii. Sushira (Wind Instruments) iv. Ghana (Solid, or the Musical Instruments which are stuck against one another, such as Cymbals).

L'ARTE DI INTERAZIONE MUSICALE: NEW MUSICAL POSSIBILITIES THROUGH MULTIMODAL TECHNIQUES JORDAN NATAN HOCHENBAUM A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE VICTORIA UNIVERSITY OF WELLINGTON AND MASSEY UNIVERSITY IN FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN SONIC ARTS NEW ZEALAND SCHOOL OF MUSIC 2013 Supervisory Committee Dr. Ajay Kapur (New Zealand School of Music) Supervisor Dr. Dugal McKinnon (New Zealand School of Music) Supervisor © JORDAN N. HOCHENBAUM, 2013 NEW ZEALAND SCHOOL OF MUSIC ii Abstract Multimodal communication is an essential aspect of human perception, facilitating the ability to reason, deduce, and understand meaning. Utilizing multimodal senses, humans are able to relate to the world in many different contexts. This dissertation looks at surrounding issues of multimodal communication as it pertains to human-computer interaction. If humans rely on multimodality to interact with the world, how can multimodality benefit the ways in which humans interface with computers? Can multimodality be used to help the machine understand more about the person operating it and what associations derive from this type of communication? This research places multimodality within the domain of musical performance, a creative field rich with nuanced physical and emotive aspects. This dissertation asks, what kinds of new sonic collaborations between musicians and computers are possible through the use of multimodal techniques? Are there specific performance areas where multimodal analysis and machine learning can benefit training musicians? In similar ways can multimodal interaction or analysis support new forms of creative processes? Applying multimodal techniques to music-computer interaction is a burgeoning effort.

    Newsletter Archives www.dollsofindia.com Veena and Other Ancient Musical Instruments of India Copyright © 2016, DollsofIndia Music of Life India, one of the oldest civilizations of the world, is also one of the most populated and most diverse countries on the planet. Indian culture; which the Western world often perceives as somewhat mystic and mysterious; is an amalgamation of various religions and rituals, diverse spiritual and tantric practices and different schools of philosophical thought as well. The above-mentioned factors have always had a heavy influence on Indian art, dance and music and have verily shaped the very fabric of this culture. The deeply spiritual nature of India reflects in the dance and music of this country. While the rich variety of folk dance and music adds color and vibrancy, the traditional classical art forms; which is personally passed on from acharya (preceptor) to shishya (pupil) and spanning across several years of training; brings with it a sort of dignity and royal feel to the art itself. What sets apart Indian dance and music from that of the rest of world, is that they actually mirror the land's religious and spiritual heritage - most of them even have close links to Indian mythology. Musical Instruments of India This time on Dolls of India, we bring you a post on some of the most ancient musical instruments of India - many of which hold a high degree of spiritual significance and feature in tales of Indian mythology as well. Owing to the sheer number of such musical instruments, we will be splitting the article into two parts; also listing only the most popular instruments.
