Depuis, maintes fois décrite comme une terre de diversité, de contrastes et de paradoxes aux richesses infinies, l’Inde n’a cessé de fasciner. Sa culture musicale, fortement imprégnée d’une ancestrale pensée religieuse, a su préserver un héritage prestigieux tout en s’enrichissant régulièrement d’apports exogènes. La musique jouée au XIIIe siècle à la cour du Sultan de Delhi était alors essentiellement importée d’Asie centrale. Par un lent processus d’intégration et d’assimilation 2 réciproques, des générations de musiciens iraniens, turcs et hindous développèrent une culture musicale syncrétique, issue des mondes persan et indien. C’est ce formidable métissage qui permit aux instruments, aux formes et aux répertoires de s’enrichir mutuellement, en donnant corps à une culture hindoustanie qui allait devenir en Occident, dans le courant du XXe siècle, l’ambassadrice des « musiques du monde ». ’Inde du Nord - Traditions hindoustanies Traditions - ’Inde du Nord L Jeudi 20 mars - 20h Salle des concerts Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia, flûte bansuri Subhankar Banerjee, tabla Bhawani Shankar, pakhavaj Rupak Kulkarni, flûte bansuri 3 programme jeudi 20 mars - 20h Durée du concert : 2h Avec le soutien de l’Ambassade de France en Inde et de l’Indian Council for Cultural Relations Hariprasad Chaurasia Né en 1939, Hariprasad Chaurasia aurait dû, en bonne logique, reprendre le métier de son père, qui était lutteur.

Political activist, actor, playwright and poet, Safdar had been deeply committed, like so many young men and women of his generation, to the anti-imperialist, secular and egalitarian values that were woven into the rich fabric of the nation’s liberation struggle. Safdar moved closer to the Left, eventually joining the CPI(M), to pursue his goal of being part of a social order worthy of a free people. Tragically, it would be of the manner of his death at the hands of a politically patronised mafia that would single him out. The spontaneous, nationwide wave of revulsion, grief and resistance aroused by his brutal murder transformed him into a powerful symbol of the very values that had been sought to be crushed by his death. Such a death belongs to the revolutionary martyr. 6 PUBLICATIONS Safdar was thirty-four years old when he died.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles FIND THE TRUE COUNTRY: DEVOTIONAL MUSIC AND THE SELF IN INDIA’S NATIONAL CULTURE A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology by VIVEK VIRANI 2016 © Copyright by Vivek Virani 2016 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Find the True Country: Devotional Music and the Self in India’s National Culture by Vivek Virani Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology University of California, Los Angeles, 2016 Professor Daniel M. Neuman, Chair For centuries, the songs of devotional poet-saints have been an integral part of Indian religious life. Countless regional traditions of bhajans (devotional songs) have been able to maintain their existence by adapting to serve the contemporary social needs of their participants. This dissertation draws on fieldwork conducted over 2014-2015 with contemporary bhajan performers from many different genres and styles throughout India. It highlights a specific tradition in the Central Indian region of Malwa based on poetry by Kabir and other Sants (anti- establishment poet-saints) performed by lower-caste singers. This tradition was largely unheard- of half a century ago, but is now a major part of Malwa’s cultural life that has facilitated the creation of lower-caste spiritual networks and created a space for those networks to engage in discourse about social issues. Malwa’s bhajan singers have also become part of India’s popular ii religious and musical life as certain performers have attained celebrity status and been recognized at the national level as living bearers of the Sant tradition. This dissertation follows performers and songs from Malwa into new contexts and explores the processes by which performers and audiences in diverse styles and contexts use Sant bhajans to construct understandings of the self.
