Today is the day:
Anoushka Shankar, Ravi Shankar's daughter and sitar master as well, will perform for the first time in Chile. My father (80 years old) saw Ravi in 1973 in a sold out Theater in Santiago. He told me that a lot of people smoked weed during the show that night: The venue was full of smoke, so, Ravi said to the crowd in the middle of his performance: "stop smoking please or I'm leaving" 🤣
Today I go to this show with my wife and my dad, as a gift for him; a tribute to his musical history and the direct influence he had on me to finally become a professional musician; on my love for music, and my interest in new fascinating sounds from all over the world.
I'm quite excited! Go!

La sitarista, hija del legendario Ravi Shankar, alista su debut en Chile tras su sorpresiva colaboración con Damon Albarn para el último disco The Gorillaz. En sus dos shows presentará el cierre de una trilogía marcada por la intuición, la sanación y un presente creativo en expansión. "El mundo necesita un reinicio”, asegura.
Ended the weekend and welcomed the weekend with Duets by Ravi Shankar & Ali Akbar Khan, Alla Rakha, released by His Master's Voice as part of their Music from India series in 1965.

#RaviShankar (1920-2012)
Je pense que mon public de musique classique indienne avait l’impression que je les trahissais en collaborant avec George Harrison ; je suis devenu connu comme le “cinquième Beatles”. En Inde, ils pensaient que j’étais devenu fou.
