Turneul va avea loc în perioada 14- 23 octombrie, în patru orașe din țară: TIMIȘOARA Concertele vor include compoziții de pe albumele "West meet East", precum și compoziții noi, ce vor CLUJ-NAPOCA fi create de artiștii implicați în proiect, în frunte cu Alexandru Tomescu.

Fained as the man who popularized Indian music in the West, his life has really been devoted to mu- tual exchange and enlightenment between all nations of the world. George Harrison dubs him the "Godfather of World Music." His 75th birthday was recently commemorated with the release of Ravi:In Celebration,a 4-CD box set spanning his ground-breaking career. He continues to perform in concert halls around the world and is currently readying his autobiography, Raga Mala. He was born Robindra Shankar in Benares, United Province, on April 7, 1920, the youngest of four brothers who survived to adulthood. His father Shyam Shankar was an eminent scholar, statesman, and lawyer but was absent for most of his childhood. The young Shankar (nicknamed "Robu") was therefore raised by his mother in some poverty. His eldest brother, the legendary dancer Uday Shankar, was already in Europe, dancing with Anna Pavolva before establishing his own Indian dance troupe.

Narong Prangcharoen and Thai Cross-Cultural Fusion in Contemporary Composition
NARONG PRANGCHAROEN AND THAI CROSS-CULTURAL FUSION IN CONTEMPORARY COMPOSITION A THESIS IN Musicology Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF MUSIC by NATHINEE CHUCHERDWATANASAK B.A.(Music), Mahidol University, 2007 M.M., Eastern Michigan University, 2009 Kansas City, Missouri 2014 NARONG PRANGCHAROEN AND THAI CROSS-CULTURAL FUSION IN CONTEMPORARY COMPOSITION Nathinee Chucherdwatanasak, Candidate for Master of Music Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2014 ABSTRACT Narong Prangcharoen (b.1973) has become one of the leading Asian classical composers since he won a number of international awards and received numerous commissions from major orchestras and individual distinguished musicians. His compositions, most of which include distinct Thai musical elements and Thai cultural influences within the guise of Western art music, are emblematic of a trend in contemporary composition that embraces worldwide influences. This thesis is a first step toward the literature of this compositional trend of Thai/Western musical fusion. It begins with a survey to different approaches of applying exotic elements into Western compositions, focusing on the fusion of Western and Far Eastern musical/non-musical elements of China and Indonesia. The focus then shifts to the cross-cultural interplay between Thai and Western elements that has appeared throughout Thai music history. The main topic of thesis ensues, with the presentation of Prangcharoen’s musical background, his creative process, and his synthesis of Thai influences and Western compositional techniques in his orchestral music. The purpose of this thesis is to be not only a principal source in iii apprehending Prangcharoen’s life and works, but also a foundation for any future study relating to Prangcharoen or other Thai composers and their compositions.

Ravi Shankar's Father, Was a Bengali Brahmin of Many Talents
RAVISHANKAR Pandit Shyam Shankar, Ravi Shankar's father, was a Bengali Brahmin of many talents. As a youth in Benares, he had studied Sanskrit and philosophy and learned to sing in a classical style; he could chant the ancient Hindu hymns, or vedas, and was also fluent in English-India having long ago been subsumed within the Brit ish Empire. He was a lawyer by training. For several years he was employed as diwan, or chief minister, at the court of the Maharaja of Jhalawar in southern Rajasthan, one of the many semiautono mous princely states within the British-Indian Raj. This position afforded him the opportunity to travel frequently to London (where, among other things, he purchased books for the royal library) and to expose his growing family to the good life and fine arts of the maharaja's palace. Born on 17 April 1920, Ravindra Shankar was the fifth and young est son of Shyam and his wife Hemangini Devi, who descended from a Bengali zamindari family. Ravi Shankar was twenty years younger than his oldest brother, Uday. By the time Ravi was born, Shyam Shankar had resigned his post in Jhalawar and left India for Lon - don, where he embarked upon a new life with an English wife. He practiced law and eventually became an amateur impresario, intro ducing Indian dance and music to Britain. Uday Shankar joined him there and studied painting at the Royal College of Art. But the rest of the family stayed behind, living in a rented house in Benares and making ends meet by drawing on the father's pension from the maharaja.

Research Journal of English Language and Literature (RJELAL) ORIENTAL INFLUENCES on the SONGS of the BEATLES
Research Journal of English Language and Literature (RJELAL) A Peer Reviewed (Refereed) International Journal Vol.3.2.2015 (Apr-June) http://www.rjelal.com RESEARCH ARTICLE ORIENTAL INFLUENCES ON THE SONGS OF THE BEATLES Dr. GAURI Assistant Professor of Music, BLM Girls College, Nawanshahr, Punjab, India ABSTRACT Across all cultures, Music is traditionally associated with spirituality. The quest for spirituality is one of the key reasons for cultural fusion. Aided by technological development, cultural fusion takes place throughout the world and such a cultural fusion is evident in music as well, particularly in the songs of the Beatles, the highly popular music band of the 1960’s. Beatles were greatly inspired by the Oriental music in both its form and content, in physical and spiritual aspects and that is why oriental element ranging from Taoist philosophy to Hindu Vedic and Puranic traditions are noticeable in the lyrics of the Beatles. The form of the Beatle’s music is more Indian than Chinese. This inclusion of the oriental element into the occidental may be attributed to the quest for spirituality or the charm and fascination for the orient or both, but the fact remains that the influence of the orient on the Beatles was considerable. ©KY PUBLICATIONS Introduction Emperor’s Classic of Medicine.
