  • ICICI Bank Organizes 'Spandan'- a Fusion Music Night
    ICICI Bank Limited ICICI Towers Bandra Kurla Complex IIICC Bank Mumbai 400 051 Press Note August 3,2002 ICICI Bank organizes ‘Spandan’- a fusion music night. Exclusive music evening for its corporate clients ICICI Bank, India’s largest private sector bank, today organised ‘Spandan’, an exclusive evening of fusion music for its corporate clients in Mumbai. ‘Spandan’, which means Heartbeat in Sanskrit, was a melange of five different musical performances by well known artistes like Shankar Mahadevan as the vocalist, Anandan Sivamani on the drum, Niladri Kumar playing the sitar; Vikku Vinayakram on the Ghatam; V.Selvaganesh on the Kanjira; Fazal Qureshi on the Tabla and Bhawani Shankar on the Pakhawaj and Tabla. Together they promise to blend the world of music with the pulse beats of every individual present there. The programme started with the invocation prayer followed by an enticing Madhalaya performance. The tempo of the music slowly increased to a breathtaking percussion item followed by a Jam session. The highlight of the concert was the grand finale, a symphony of sound that left audience asking for more. The programme, organized in Mumbai, attracted a wide audience of industrialists and top executives of the corporate world and noted celebrities including Javed Akhtar, Bhupendra and Mitali, Roopkumar and Sonali Rathod, Raageshwari, and Dipti Naval. Said Mr. Nachiket Mor, Executive Director, ICICI Bank, “It was a pleasure to see so many of our clients enjoying the performance and having a relaxed time this evening.

  • Born in a Family of Musicians, Music Is a Divine Blessing to Pravin
    ! ! GURU AND EARLY TUTELAGE: Born in a family of musicians, music is a divine blessing to Pravin. He hails from Dharwad, a place which has given to the world many great musicians like Pt Bhimsen Joshi, Gangubai Hangal and Pt Kumar Gandharva. He is fortunate to have his father Pandit VENKATESH GODKHINDI, an eminent vocalist and Bansuri arCste of the country, as his first and only Guru for Flute. Pravin started toying with a small flute at the tender age of 3 and since then it has been his best companion. His passion for Flute could hardly be matched with anything else even during his childhood. With such a passion blended with early hours of rigorous Riyaz under the able guidance of his guru, Pravin started exhibiCng the glimpses of a genius in the making. Pravin gave his first public concert at the age of 6 years and held the audience spellbound. His quest for deeper knowledge about LAYAKAARI brought him to his Guru, Vidwan ANOOR ANANTH KRISHNA SHARMA a reputed Mridangam arCste who is providing able guidance to Pravin on the deeper aspects of LAYA and LAYAKAARI. TWO DIFFERENT STYLES OF PLAYING: His father has taught him Hindustani BANSURI in KIRANA GHARAANA GAYAKI STYLE. But Pravin added the GATKAARI or TANTRAKAARI STYLE by his own efforts and succeeded in it. He is adept in both the styles. Sonorous blowing, control over the breath, elaboraCons of Raga with its aestheCc appeal, extraordinary and skillful rendiCon of Layakaari are but a few salient features of his flute recital. He has been ably balancing both tradiConal and creaCve music.

  • JBH the Art of the Drum
    THE ART OF THE DRUM: THE RELIGIOUS AND SPIRITUAL DYNAMIC OF DRUMMING AND DRUM CRAFTING IN FIJI, JAPAN, INDIA, MOROCCO AND CUBA JESSE BROWNER-HAMLIN THE BRISTOL FELLOWSHIP HAMILTON COLLEGE WWW.THEARTOFTHEDRUM.BLOGSPOT.COM AUGUST 2007 – AUGUST 2008 2 In the original parameters of my Bristol Fellowship, I aspired to investigate the religious and spiritual dynamic of drumming and drum crafting in Fiji, Japan, India, Morocco, the Dominican Republic, and Trinidad and Tobago. As any academic will attest, field research tends to march to beat of its own drum, if you will. The beauty of my fellowship was that I could have conducted the research in just about any country in the world. Music is everywhere; and moreover, drums are the oldest instrument known to man. Along the way, I modestly altered the itinerary: in the end, I conducted research in Fiji, Japan, India, Western Europe, Morocco and Cuba. It truly was a remarkable experience to have full autonomy over my research: I am infinitely grateful that the Bristol Family and Hamilton College (represented by Ginny Dosch) gave me the freedom to modify my itinerary as I saw fit. To be successful while conducting field research, you need to be flexible. While several of my hypotheses from my proposal were examined and tested, I often found myself in unscripted situations. The daily unpredictability of the fellowship is what makes it such a profound and exciting experience, as every day is an adventure. With the blessing of technology, this fellowship was carried out in “real time.” Because I actively maintained a website, www.theartofthedrum.blogspot.com, my research and multimedia were posted almost instantaneously, and thus, my family and friends back in the States could read about my experiences, see my pictures and watch my videos.

    INDIA DAY MAGAZINE 74TH INDIAN INDEPENDENCE DAY CELEBRATION I N S I D E Youth Contributions Guest Columns Photography, Art, Art credit: Recipes and more.. Java Joshi VIRTUAL EVENT AUGUST 15TH, 2020 YouTube and Facebook Live 6:30 PM EDT EDITOR'S NOTE IAGB kicked off annual India Day celebration in style by hosting ten standup comedians over two Friday nights, a first of its kind of entertainment. The comedy acts were hosted live via Facebook and YouTube media. Again a first of its kind under Civic Engagement, IAGB moderated a panel of four individuals from the community, two of whom were strongly left leaning and the other two right leaning in their political philosophy. While the two sides disagreed on all important matters, the discussion was kept strictly civil and each side respected the other’s viewpoints. IAGB is an apolitical organization and does not endorse any political party or its leaders. The idea here was to simply bring the important policy issues to the forefront and each individual listening in to this discussion will then form their own opinion based on their interests. On Aug 9th IAGB hosted Dr. Rik Mehta, the first Indian American GOP primary winner for Senate race in New Jersey. Another first is in relation to the actual India’s Independence Day celebration. IAGB and its volunteers will be hoisting flags in thirty six towns across New England. This will be followed by a dazzling array of celebrations with artists performing here in US and in India. For the first time we will be have sitting governor, senator and congressman and other high profile individuals on the IAGB platform during the India Day celebrations.

There are no jewels made of pearls nor are there glittering gold ornaments. There are no necklaces studded with precious stones like emeralds and diamonds. But there is one garland around his neck.
