  • Anoushka Shankar Thursday, May 2, 2019 at 8:00Pm This Is the 939Th Concert in Koerner Hall
    Anoushka Shankar Thursday, May 2, 2019 at 8:00pm This is the 939th concert in Koerner Hall Anoushka Shankar, sitar Ojas Adhiya, tabla Pirashanna Thevarajah, mridangam Ravichandra Kulur, flute Danny Keane, cello & piano Kenji Ota, tanpura Anoushka Shankar Sitar player and composer Anoushka Shankar is a singular figure in the Indian classical and progressive world music scenes. Her dynamic and spiritual musicality has garnered several prestigious accolades, including six Grammy Award nominations, recognition as the youngest – and first female – recipient of a British House of Commons Shield, credit as an Asian Hero by TIME magazine, an Eastern Eye Award for Music, and a Songlines Best Artist Award. Most recently, she became one of the first five female composers to have been added to the UK A-level music syllabus. Deeply rooted in the Indian classical music tradition, Shankar studied exclusively from the age of nine under her father and guru, the late Ravi Shankar, and made her professional debut as a classical sitarist at the age of 13. By the age of 20, she had made three classical recordings for EMI/Angel and received her first Grammy nomination, thereby becoming the first Indian female and youngest-ever nominee in the world music category. She is also the first Indian artist to perform at the Grammy Awards. In addition to performing as a solo sitarist, her compositional work has led to cross-cultural collaborations with artists such as Sting, M.I.A., Herbie Hancock, Pepe Habichuela, Karsh Kale, Rodrigo y Gabriela, and Joshua Bell, demonstrating the versatility of the sitar across musical genres.

  • Anoushka Shankar: Breathing Under Water – ‘Burn’, ‘Breathing Under Water’ and ‘Easy’ (For Component 3: Appraising)
    Anoushka Shankar: Breathing Under Water – ‘Burn’, ‘Breathing Under Water’ and ‘Easy’ (For component 3: Appraising) Background information and performance circumstances The composer Anoushka Shankar was born in 1981, in London, and is the daughter of the famous sitar player Ravi Shankar. 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. Her main collaborator was Utkarsha (Karsh) Kale, an Indian musician and composer and co-founder of Tabla Beat Science – an Indian band exploring ambient, drum & bass and electronica in a Hindustani music setting. Kale contributes dance music textures and technical expertise, as well as playing tabla, drums and guitar on the album.

  • David Pontbriand and Brian Shankar Adler
    music presents David Pontbriand and Brian Shankar Adler Saturday, March 20, 2021 Live-Streamed from the Olin Concert Hall 7:30 pm About the Concert Sitarist David Pontbriand and percussionist/composer Brian Shankar Adler perform an evening of pieces and songs connected (in one way or another) to India. Unusual settings of sitar with vibraphone, drum set, and bomba legüero, engage in textural dialogue with the more customary duo of sitar and tabla. The program includes improvisations, original compositions, and folk songs, as well as works by Ellington/Strayhorn and Lennon/McCartney. Program Introduction Drone (Adler) is inspired by the subtle, hypnotic hum of the tamboura, a plucked string instrument from India. In this piece, I am seeking to create a similarly meditative effect through the use of weaving rhythms that stretch and contract; a palindrome, with no fixed beginning or ending. –BSA Alaap is the name for the exploratory opening section of a raga performance, where the raga theme is gradually unfolded and developed, in free time. In the Indian classical tradition, ragas are melodic frameworks based on one or more modal scales, each with specific conventions of phrasing that suggest a distinct melodic shape, or flavor. Within this framework, the artist creates a unique spontaneous composition with each performance. My alaap is an original conception, for sitar solo, combining melodic elements from two different raga forms with elements of free improvisation, in a “stream of consciousness” series of episodic variations. The vibes provide an atmospheric envelope, gently framing and supporting the melodic variations. –DP Gat is a composition for sitar and tabla, where the themes developed in the alaap are further explored in a rhythmic framework called tala.

He was strict but, unlike his guru, he was sweet about it.” Although Anoushka has clearly benefited from her father’s teaching, Norah Jones’ success suggests nature is as important as nurture. Ravi separated from Sue Jones when their daugh- ter was eight and he didn’t see Norah for 10 years after that. “I wish I had not lost out on those years with her, but by God’s grace all is well and I am so happy to have got her back,” Ravi says. “I had no chance to teach her Indian music, but with her tremendous talent and unique voice, she is what she is today.” Today she is the most successful female artist of the past decade, having sold more than 36 million records. In 2007, Jones collaborated with her half-sister on a song for Anoushka’s album Breathing Under Water. Anoushka says her father, who has been criticised for straying outside Indian classical traditions to collaborate with Menuhin, Glass and Harrison, has been supportive of such experiments. “I think traditional music isn’t necessarily frozen and static,” she says. “I’m always very curious and fascinated by experi- menting within traditions because to me that is a valid way to keep it alive, if it keeps moving and keeps growing.” But Anoushka is also aware of the burden of being her father’s daughter.
