Sukanya Shankar comments: “The centenary celebrations for my husband by the ​ ​ Southbank Centre will bring back some of the magic I have experienced at all the concerts of this amazing musician!” Anoushka Shankar comments: “I feel deeply grateful to be able to begin celebrations of my ​ ​ late father’s centenary year with a series of special events at London’s Southbank Centre, before we continue the celebrations in various cities worldwide. It feels ambitious to the point of being unrealistic, to somehow put together anything that can fully showcase all the varied aspects of his incredible career, creativity, musicianship and humanity. However with the multiplicity of events that Southbank Centre is putting on, we may stand a chance!” Akram Khan comments: “Pandit-Ji is one of the most iconic artists to have come out of ​ ​ India, and one that has truly inspired many generations of music and dance lovers all around the world. “As a child, I remember being entranced by his music, to the point where it had left a deep impression in me, and it still resonates with me today. The way I approach music, the way I hear music, has very much the echo of his influence on me. “And to now bring back Kaash – which was my first full-length ensemble work that premiered ​ ​ at Southbank Centre so many years ago – not only feels like a full circle, but feels deeply connected to my admiration and respect that I have for Pandit-Ji, who in hindsight, was the early architect of my emotions in the dance I dance.” Gillian Moore CBE, Director of Music, Southbank Centre, comments: "From his debut ​ ​ Royal Festival Hall performance in 1958 to the premiere of Symphony in 2010, Ravi Shankar ​ ​ shared the power and energy of his musicianship with countless listeners here at Southbank Centre. It is a huge honour to present Shankar 100, a year celebrating this great artist and ​ ​ human being and his incomparable contribution to the world." Ravi Shankar’s daughter, Sitar player and composer Anoushka Shankar, takes a central ​ ​ role in celebrations as a new Southbank Centre Associate Artist. Her dynamic and spiritual musicality has garnered 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, and a Songlines Best Artist Award. On the anniversary of Ravi Shankar’s birth (7 Apr 2020), Anoushka Shankar and her sister, ​ ​ ​ ​ the nine time Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter & pianist Norah Jones, lead a gala ​ ​ event spanning their father’s multi-genre work, including Indian classical music, East-West collaborations and songs from films. They are joined by friends and special guests including Nitin Sawhney and Olivia Harrison, with more names to be announced. ​ ​ ​ Anoushka Shankar returns later in the month for a performance of Ravi Shankar’s Symphony, reuniting with London Philharmonic Orchestra 10 years after they gave the ​ ​ ​ world premiere of the work in 2010 (22 Apr 2020). She also joins forces with the BFI to ​ curate a selection of films scored by Ravi Shankar which will be shown at the BFI Southbank in April 2020. London Philharmonic Orchestra features earlier in the anniversary year, when they present a semi-staged performance of Ravi Shankar’s final work, his only opera Sukanya, inspired by ​ ​ his wife and stories from the Indian epics. With libretto by Amit Chaudhuri, Sukanya, ​ ​ ​ ​ featuring Susannah Hurrell in the title role, is conducted by David Murphy, who worked ​ ​ ​ ​ closely with Ravi Shankar and completed the opera with the help of Anoushka Shankar. Direction is by Suba Das with Gauri Diwakar as choreographer (15 Jan 2020). The ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Orchestra is then joined by conductor Zubin Mehta and Anoushka Shankar for a ​ ​ ​ ​ November concert; more details to be announced in the new year. 2020 also marks 20 years since Akram Khan co-founded his eponymous dance company, ​ ​ and the return to Southbank Centre of his work Kaash. The original piece premiered in ​ ​ ​ Queen Elizabeth Hall in 2002 and marked the Company’s first full-length production: Akram Khan enlisted visual artist Anish Kapoor and composer Nitin Sawhney to create a work inspired by “Hindu Gods, black holes, Indian time cycles, tablas, creation and destruction”. It was then reborn five years ago as Kaash (Revival), and returns to the QEH as part of the ​ ​ ​ ​ Shankar 100 centenary celebrations for an exclusive four-show run (22-25 May 2020). ​ In September 2020, Darbar returns to Southbank Centre and curates SitarFest, a three-day ​ ​ festival showcasing today’s finest sitar masters, inspired by the legacy of Pandit Ravi Shankar. Alongside the performances, Shankar 100 features free events across the public spaces. ​ ​ These include: an archive exhibition showcasing rarities from Shankar’s rich history of ​ ​ Royal Festival Hall performances alongside original items from the Shankar family archives, revealing glimpses of the man behind the music (RFH Archive Studio, from 7 April 2020); a specially-commissioned film featuring archive footage and interviews with contemporary ​ artists who have been influenced by Ravi Shankar’s work; and a Schools Day comprising ​ ​ interactive music workshops and performances for primary schools (9 June 2020). The centenary of Ravi Shankar’s birth will also see the publication of Oliver Craske’s ​ biography Indian Sun:The Life and Music of Ravi Shankar (published by Faber on 2 April ​ ​ 2020). Further events for Southbank Centre’s Shankar 100 celebrations to be announced in the ​ ​ new year. #ENDS# Tickets for Ravi Shankar Centenary and Kaash will go on sale to Southbank Centre ​ ​ ​ ​ Members on Wednesday 13 November and to the general public on Thursday 14 November at www.southbankcentre.co.uk / 020 3879 9555. ​ ​ Press Images available to download HERE ​ For further press information and interview requests please contact: Naomi Burgoyne, Senior Press Manager [email protected] / 020 ​ ​ 7921 0919 OR Alexandra Shaw, Press Officer [email protected] / 020 7921 0676 ​ ​ For press ticket requests, please contact: Alex Kemsley, Press Assistant: [email protected] / 020 7921 0888 ​ ​ ​ Join the Conversation: @southbankcentre #shankar100 NOTES TO EDITORS About Southbank Centre Southbank Centre is the UK’s largest arts centre, occupying a 17 acre site that sits in the midst of ​ London’s most vibrant cultural quarter on the South Bank of the Thames.

    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.

  • Sukanya an Opera by Ravi Shankar
    Sukanya an opera by Ravi Shankar Royal Opera House London Philharmonic Orchestra BBC Singers Ravi Shankar was one of the most influential musicians of all time. He inspired people from all walks of life and musicians from all genres of music. These included legendary names such as George Harrison, Yehudi Menuhin, John Coltrane and Philip Glass. Ravi Shankar’s music rapidly spread throughout the world, crossing all cultural and generational boundaries. Ravi Shankar envisaged Sukanya as a truly ground-breaking piece of musical theatre which will explore the common ground between the music, dance and theatrical traditions of India and the West. Ravi Shankar was in a unique position to visualise the common ground between East and West. He was steeped in the ancient musical and dramatic traditions of India through his guru Baba Allaudhin Khan and he also gained a deep knowledge of the music and drama of the west from a very young age. And yet he lived in an age where jet travel, radio, television and recorded music opened up the world and introduced him to musicians from across the globe that he could share and learn music with. As a young man Shankar experienced the reaction of Westerners to hearing Indian music for the first time: although many found it exciting he realised that it needed to be presented very carefully for the untrained Western ear to realise its depths. Thus, Ravi Shankar became the first Indian musician to explain these concepts to his audiences. Shankar had a vision for Sukanya that would break the mould of traditional opera: a truly ground-breaking work which will explore the common ground between the music, dance and theatrical traditions of India and the West.

  • 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.

The Occasional Publication series is published for the India International Centre by Cmde. (Retd.) R. Datta. Designed and produced by FACET Design. Tel.: 91-11-24616720, 24624336. Pandit Ravi Shankar—Tansen of our Times Pandit Ravi Shankar died a few months ago, just short of his 93rd birthday on 7 April. So it is opportune that we remember a man whom I have rather unabashedly called the Tansen of our times. Pandit Ravi Shankar was easily the greatest musician of our times and his death marks not only the transience of time itself, but it also reminds us of the glory that was his life and the immortality of his legacy. In the passing of Robindro Shaunkar Chowdhury, as he was called by his parents, on 11 December in San Diego, California, we cherish the memory of an extraordinary genius whose life and talent spanned almost the whole of the 20th century. It crossed all continents, it connected several genres of human endeavour, it uplifted countless hearts, minds and souls. Very few Indians epitomized Indian culture in the global imagination as this charismatic Bengali Brahmin, Pandit Ravi Shankar. Born in 1920, Ravi Shankar not only straddled two centuries but also impacted many worlds—the East, the West, the North and the South, the old and the new, the traditional and the modern.
