RAVI SHANKAR - GEORGE HARRISON Collaborations im Auftrag: medienAgentur Stefan Michel T 040-5149 1467 F 040-5149 1465 [email protected] RAVI SHANKAR - GEORGE HARRISON Collaborations Eine 3CD plus DVD-Box ehrt Ravi Shankar zum 90.! Die legendären Alben „Shankar Family & Friends ”und „Music Festival From India”(1976) sind nach 30 Jahren wieder erhältlich und erscheinen erstmalig am auf CD! „persönliche und musikalische Freundschaft zwischen Ravi Shankar und George Harrison ist seit Jahrzehnten bekannt und wurde ausgiebig dokumentiert. Sie war stark genug, einen großen Einfluss auf das musikalische Leben am Ende der sechziger, Anfang der siebziger Jahre auszuüben, und bis heute hallt sie unüberhörbar in vielen Projekten ” (Philip Glass) Schon als Mittzwanziger galt der Sitar-Spieler RAVI SHANKAR als der berühmteste indische Musiker, der die faszinierende indische Musiktradition in der ganzen Welt bekannt machte. In den Sechzigern traf er unter anderem auf Yehudi Menuhin, aber seine Bekanntschaft mit dem Beatles-Mitglied GEORGE HARRISON sollte zu einer jahrzehntelangen Freundschaft und einer einzigartigen Zusammenarbeit werden. Zu seinem 90. Geburtstag, den SHANKAR schon am 7. April 2010 feierte, ehren Dark Horse Records/Rhino den Meister der Sitar mit einer aufwändig gestalteten Box mit drei Alben, die von HARRISON produziert und zum Teil mit eingespielt wurden, und einem bisher nicht erhältlichen Live-Auftritt aus dem Jahre 1974! RAVI SHANKAR - GEORGE HARRISON: Collaborations besteht aus den drei legendären Alben „Shankar Family & Friends“ (1974), „Music Festival From India“ (1976) und „Chants Of India (1997)“sowie der 1974 in der Londoner Royal Albert Hall mitgeschnittenen Performance von „Ravi ’ Music Festival From India“im DVD 5.1-Format. Sämtliche Aufnahmen waren seit Jahren vergriffen, zwei von ihnen erscheinen nun zum ersten Mal auf CD! Im Jahr 1973 unterschrieb RAVI SHANKAR bei HARRISONs Label Dark Horse Records. Das erste gemeinsame Projekt in diesem Rahmen entstand im Jahre 1974, trug den Titel Shankar, Family & Friends und brachte klassische indische Musiker wie Ustad Alla Rakha, Lakshmi Shankar und Shivkumar Sharma mit westlichen Jazz- und Rockgrößen wie George Harrison, Ringo Starr, Tom Scott, Klaus Voormann, Jim Keltner und Billy Preston zusammen. Die erste Seite des Album enthielt Instrumentals und Songs, die zweite die Musik zu einem Ballett, das nie aufgeführt wurde. Das Album war 30 Jahre lang vergriffen und erscheint in der Box erstmalig auf CD! Noch im selben Jahr trat SHANKAR mit HARRISON und einem 17-köpfigen indischen Orchester in der Royal Albert Hall auf Anlass von HARRISONs Material World Charitable Foundation mit der Performance „Ravi ’ Music Festival From India“auf. Unter anderem bot SHANKAR ein atemberaubendes Sitar-Solo, bei dem er vom Tabla-Spieler Alla Rakha begleitet wurde. Das Konzert wurde gefilmt und jetzt für die DVD auf den heutigen Stand der Technik gebracht. In der Collaborations-Box ist es zum ersten Mal der Öffentlichkeit zugänglich. 1976 wurde die Studio-Version von „Ravi ’ Music Festival From India“ veröffentlicht, die ebenfalls lange nicht zu bekommen war und nun erstmalig auf CD erhältlich ist. 1997 erschien das gemeinsame HARRISON/SHANKAR-Album „Chants Of India“auf dem SHANKAR die Musik zu traditionsreichen Sanskrit-Chorälen schuf und sich der Herausforderung stellte, die Authentizität der Verse zu erhalten. Das Album wurde ein zeitloses Werk vedischer Texte, die das Wohl des Individuums und der Menschheit beschwören. Auch dieses Album ist seit mindestens fünf Jahren nicht erhältlich gewesen. RAVI SHANKAR - GEORGE HARRISON: Collaborations erscheint in einem limitierten und durchnummerierten Box-Set, zu dem ein 56-seitiges Booklet mit Original-Liner-Notes von SHANKAR und GEORGE HARRISON und mehr als 50 persönlichen Fotografien aus dem Archiv HARRISONs gehören. Das Vorwort schrieb der Avantgarde- Komponist Philip Glass, sämtliche Aufnahmen wurde neu gemischt und remastert RAVI SHANKAR - GEORGE HARRISON: Collaborations wird auf Dark Horse Records im Vertrieb von Warner Music/Rhino Records am 15.10.2010 veröffentlicht. http://www.georgeharrison.com/ RAVI SHANKAR - GEORGE HARRISON: Collaborations (3CD + 1DVD Edition) UPC/EAN-Nr.: 8122-797921 VÖ-Datum: 15.10.2010 Coverabbildung ist bei mir erhältlich www.medienagentur-hh.de medienAgentur Hamburg, im August 2010 Bitte denken Sie an ein Belegexemplar, wenn Sie Ihre Rezension veröffentlicht haben, danke. .

  • Los Beatles De Liverpool a Hamburgo
    CATHARUM Revista de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades del Instituto de Estudios Hispánicos de Canarias · nº14, 2015 Los Beatles De Liverpool a Hamburgo Adrian McGrath Esta presentación es la historia del nacimiento de los Beatles dentro del contexto de un viaje de Liverpool a Hamburgo: desde sus comienzos humildes en el Liverpool de la segunda guerra mundial hasta su visita a Hamburgo en agosto de 1960, la primera de las cinco que hicieron a la ciudad alemana. Cuatro meses después de su última visita a Hamburgo en diciembre de 1962, tres miembros del grupo, Paul McCartney, George Harrison y Ringo Starr, aterrizaron en el aeropuerto de Los Rodeos en Tenerife para pasar, casi desapercibidos, sus últimas vacaciones tranquilas antes de hacerse famosos. Los Beatles en Tenerife. Ringo, George y Paul Quisiera destacar los momentos clave ocurridos durante este viaje además de los per- sonajes que desempeñaron un papel importante durante esta etapa fundamental en las vidas de los Beatles. «Cuatro chicos que sacudieron al mundo». Estas palabras aparecen en una estatua dedi- cada a los Beatles en Mathew Street enfrente del mítico Cavern Club. A la hora de pensar en los Beatles la mayoría de la gente recuerda sólo a estos cuatro chicos: John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison y Ringo Starr. A menudo los fans preguntan quién fue el quinto Beatle. Se barajan los nombres de George Martin, Brian Epstein, Klaus Voormann, Billy Preston…, pero durante esta etapa de la vida del grupo ya había habido no sólo un quinto, Stuart Sutcliffe (bajista original), sino también un sexto Beatle: Pete Best 13 CATHARUM Revista de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades del Instituto de Estudios Hispánicos de Canarias · nº14, 2015 Los Beatles, con Pete Best.

  • KLOS Harrisongs B'day 2015
    1 Three hours of GEORGE HARRISONGS – With and without the Beatles to celebrate his birth which took place this week 72 years ago. PLAYLIST Feb.22nd 2015 2 OPEN/9am George Harrison – Apple Scruffs - All Things Must Pass ‘70 This was a salute to the girls (and sometimes boys) who stood vigil at Apple, Abbey Road and anyplace a Fab was to likely to be. Upon recording the tune, George invited the “Apple Scruffs,” into the studio to have a listen. The Beatles - I Want To Tell You - Revolver (Harrison) Lead vocal: George The backing track was recorded in five takes on June 2, 1966. George Harrison's third song on “Revolver,” was, he later said, "about the avalanche of thoughts that are so hard to write down or say or transmit." Once again Harrison had no idea what to call his composition. The band briefly kicked around random ideas, and the song was recorded under the working title “Laxton's Superb,” a type of apple. It later became known as “I Don't Know,” which was George’s answer when producer George Martin asked whether Harrison had come up with a title. By the day of the final mix (June 6, 1966), Harrison had settled on the title “I Want To Tell You.” Contains the first bass overdub on a Beatles record. Paul had his bass recorded on a different track really allowed for more options when it came time to mix the song. On U.S. album: Revolver - Capitol LP 3 The Beatles - Blue Jay Way - Magical Mystery Tour (EP) (Harrison) Lead vocal: George Written by George Harrison on August 1, 1967 while vacationing in a rented house in the Hollywood Hills above Los Angeles.

  • US Apple LP Releases
    Apple by the Numbers U.S. album releases From the collection of Andre Gardner of NY, NY SWBO‐101 The Beatles The Beatles Released: 22 Nov. 1968 (nicknamed "The White Album") In stark contrast to the cover to Sgt. Pepper's LHCB, the cover to this two record set was plain white, with writing only on the spine and in the upper right hand corner of the back cover (indicating that the album was in stereo). This was the first Beatles US album release which was not available in mono. The mono mix, available in the UK, Australia, and several other countries, sounds quite different from the stereo mix. The album title was embossed on the front cover. Inserts included a poster and four glossy pictures (one of each Beatle). The pictures were smaller in size than those issued with the UK album. A tissue paper separator was placed between the pictures and the record. Finally, as in every EMI country, the albums were numbered. In the USA, approximately 3,200,000 copies of the album were numbered. These albums were numbered at the different Capitol factories, and there are differences in the precise nature of the stamping used on the covers. Allegedly, twelve copies with east‐coast covers were made that number "A 0000001". SI = 2 ST 3350 Wonderwall Music George Harrison Released: 03 Dec. 1968 issued with an insert bearing a large Apple on one side.

  • Mantras and Sacred Chants
    1 Peace Mala Mantras and Sacred Chants Mantras or sacred chants are often written in Sanskrit which is an ancient sacred language from India. Many of the holy books linked with Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism are written in this language. The word ‘mala’, is from the Sanskrit language and means ‘garland of flowers’. In the East a mala is a string of beads used in meditation or prayer as each bead or ‘flower’ focuses on a prayer or mantra. You can see mala beads in this photo where the Buddhist practitioner is about to chant mantras to Medicine Buddha. Copyright © Pam Evans 2011 (revised 2020) www.peacemala.org.uk “Creative education that empowers and embraces all Uniting the World in Peace” “Addysg greadigol sy’n grymuso ac yn cofleidio pawb Uno'r Byd mewn Heddwch” 2 The word ‘mantra’ is also from the Sanskrit language and describes a sacred sound or group of words used in chanting. Mantras are repeated in order to focus the mind or consciousness. The oldest mantras composed in Sanskrit are at least 3000 years old. Some teachers refer to mantras as ‘mind protection’ or ‘secret speech’. This is because concentrating on mantras, and counting mala beads at the same time, helps to block out distracting thoughts. Western scientists are beginning to discover that the chanting of mantras has health benefits and helps to calm the mind and nervous system. The word ‘mantra’ can be broken down into two parts: ‘man’, which means mind, and ‘tra’, which means transport or vehicle. In other words, a mantra is an instrument of the mind—a powerful sound or vibration that you can use to enter a deep state of meditation.
