URL : http:// journals.openedition.org/ethnomusicologie/2446 Article L.111-1 du Code de la propriété intellectuelle. ENTRETIEN ALI AKBAR KHAN, LE MAÎTRE DU SAROD INDIEN* Huib Schippers En 1936, un jeune joueur de sarod fit ses débuts à la All India Music Conference de Allahabad. Ce premier concert en solo d'Ali Akbar Khan marqua le début d'une phase importante de l'histoire de la musique instrumentale indienne. Jusque là, aucun joueur de sarod n'avait su atteindre pareille maîtrise technique et artistique. Ce fut le début d'une carrière remarquable, couvrant maintenant plus de cinq décennies. Des milliers de concerts et d'émissions de radio, ainsi que de nom- breux enregistrements commerciaux ont affirmé la renommée du khansahib comme le digne dépositaire de la gharān ā de son père Baba Allauddin, et comme l'un des meilleurs musiciens du vingtième siècle. Mais l'importance d'Ali Akbar Khan va au delà de ses qualités artistiques. Sa vie reflète les changements sociaux et musicaux que l'Inde a connus tout au long de ce siècle : le déclin des cours royales, le rôle de la All India Radio comme nou- velle protectrice de la musique classique, l'avènement du concert de masse, le dé- veloppement de la musique enregistrée et la propagation de la musique indienne en Occident.

Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin December 2008 Acknowledgements I would like to briefly thank a few individuals for making this project possible. The first are my parents, Tom and Kay Grimes, who have supported me emotionally and, as necessary, financially through the dissertation writing process (and earlier, as well). Next, I would like to thank my mentor and dissertation supervisor Dr. Stephen M. Slawek. All that I know of Indian music (even the things he didn’t teach me directly) is due to him, both as my academic adviser and as my long-time sitar Guru. Especially crucial for the current project, though, has been his unwavering moral and intellectual support. Dr. Slawek encouraged me from day one to pursue the work I wanted to pursue, and I cannot be more grateful for this. All of his advisees that he has shepherded through the process of writing a report or dissertation, I am sure, would say the same.

    Ravi and Anoushka Shankar, sitar Friday, September 19, 8 pm, 2003 Zellerbach Hall with Tanmoy Bose and Arup Chattopadhyay, tabla Tonight’s program will be announced from the stage. Ravi and Anoushka Shankar record for Angel/EMI. ICM Artists, Ltd., New York City Lee Lamont, chairman emeritus; David V. Foster, president and CEO This performance has been made possible, in part, by the Friends of Cal Performances. Cal Performances thanks the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation and the Zellerbach Family Foundation for their generous support. Cal Performances receives additional funding from the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency that supports the visual, literary, and performing arts to benefit all Americans, and the California Arts Council, a state agency. Ravi Shankar (sitar), the legendary virtuoso sitarist, composer, teacher, and writer, is renowned throughout the world for his pioneering work in bringing Indian music to the West. He has been a cultural influence in the West for more than three decades as India’s most recognized and esteemed musical ambassador. The youngest son in a Bengali family, he was born in 1920 in Varansi (Benares), the holiest of Indian cities. At the age of 10, he accompanied his elder brother with his company of dancers and musicians to Paris, where he attended school. He spent several years in the West absorbing different kinds of music, but returned to India in 1938 to begin his career. Shankar combined his concert performances with his work for All India Radio (1949–56), where he established the National Chamber Orchestra. As word of his virtuosity spread throughout India—and then Europe, Asia, and the United States—Shankar embarked on one of the most extraordinary careers in the history of contemporary music.
