Music for the soul: Pt. Ravi Shankar - Dec 16, 2012

"After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music" - Aldous Huxley This week has been a particularly sad one because of the unfortunate events of violence in the Connecticut elementary school. Our heart goes for the victims and their families. Our deepest condolences. In today’s show let us soothe our souls and ponder over a little with the life and music of sitar maestro Pt. Ravi Shankar. Pt. Ravi Shankar has been attributed with introducing Indian classical music to the western world. He created great music with stalwarts of Indian music Ustad Allah Rakha Khan, Ustad Ali Akbar Khan and many more. He also collaborated with and inspired great western musicians like Yehudi Menuhin, George Harrison, Philip Glass and John Coltrane. He left behind a legacy of music which will be cherished and remembered by the generations to come. May his soul rest in peace.
