it was i thought it's so different my whole musical world has been turned upside down. for me it's like yeah i said to the film music and with great resistance from germany as. before the guy goes oh the experience is amazing . i. really do i feel so inspired here it's a foreign country and a foreign culture and the music is unfamiliar i'm sure but it's still inspiring and fun to delve into. possible and if you do so and so told. i think it feels great to have an exchange with the germans musicians that don't win percussionists. i. also can compose a bellhop ship is powder is running on workshop in. five young german musicians are here to get a feel for indian music they'll present what they learned at a special concert in barga i thought oh no i get it i didn't count the comma. key elements of indian music include rhythmic clapping and the vocal percussion arts known as corner chord it's a challenge to learn. disc sikorsky it's a large scale project. for trying to bring these cultures together in a concert format from others of course the workshop is part of the project but what comes out of it should be more than just a workshop presentation that's. previously known as bombay is a metropolis of twenty million people on india's western coast a city full of contrasts it's a lounge and demanding a financial holiday and the epicenter of the bollywood industry. is here because this man is alive through them here at first it seems just like white noise but it's so exciting this was soundscape the traffic the people the language also interesting to find. the german guests spend their second day touring the city and exploring this mysterious unfamiliar world. you're going to but i'm so impressed by the diversity the different architectural styles the different smells and. there's something new at each turn of the physical don't know where to look first or where you're allowed to. go and it's quite overwhelming but in a positive way. rich and poor side by side. neighborhoods next to not sure is high rises. visit to a hindu temple it's there for. first encounter with india's religious music. as evening falls on wind with some fresh coconut milk. while they're excited to meet their indian counterparts kind of master tom the musician and teacher you think of it also i think the exchange with cyrus cheney and his students will be an exciting and completely new experience has been small is that what i'm looking forward to the most is that in the cultural exchange we'll teach them something they'll teach us something i expected to be very inspiring. the next day the indian professional song bill arrives three tabla players and two dances in india dancers are considered musicians their instruments or their feet which they used to produce complex rhythms it's known as custom. just six stuffed say where up to one hundred fifty bells on each ankle. of. the indian tabla drums on like small kettle drums covered with kate skin they produce a haunting sound. in. the indian musicians a well versed in the complex clapping unspoken cannot call rhythms up that. and the germans they seem to be picking it up quite well. these are traditional indian songs that can help chimp asparagus has a range for tabla cuttack dancing and western percussion instruments. it's. just say. indian music involves a lot of improvisation it doesn't really have written a change of melodies and rhythms upon stone from teachers to their students it's a rich tradition. and it's here in indiana to topple a concert is like that and that's the thing. and the audience has their hands in the air because they're celebrating the music it's all in spanish you have it for les paul in india its. emissions. you can really tell this is the music of the people who seek the light to. alongside the tablas and the cataract on first is a drum set from aruba and the set of chimes the question brings them all together. but their ambitions aim is to create a productive dialogue between traditional indian and european music not such a mission impossible after all. both sides are curious about each other's music and instruments. they're. liable to go back and look and speak and when you board four of them in the woods different to me like you're just one. and then you put the second one taken by putting it like this and you're the second one but when you're in there they're going to get all three of you and you put it under you know what you know you do you turn it around. cost of the workshop they all enjoy a well earned meal music brought them together but they'll leave with so many more impressions. tomorrow they're expecting a very special visit from the guru banhart first met when he was sixteen that he then went on to study with him for three years. and how we can get off from want to know i'm not so many have his radiance around him and it was the first time i'd met a real master someone who doesn't just know how things should be but who also embodied it and this is a difficult and the century old tradition behind it he always said. if you insist then you will be able to do this and do it this and this and this especially so we end it was like going through a big gate with the promise that there's a whole world waiting behind it that would enrich you. but that didn't speak. any but i can. he see a seventeen year old should actually tell by a count the amount of the guru you know she went down how did leaving a show called. his message will result clapping and the question like which could of course all belong together. later the. pace is picking up the guru is a demanding teacher the indian musicians still have an advantage but the germans are catching up. aside from learning new rhythms they're also learning the philosophy behind this music. written. down to live music we put a beeper. we're going to music. the ultimate becomes a problem you have how. they did this. movie the mollies also they did it to communicate also what. is really again. it comes through you had a hard. look at one one. one one. one one well. she. i think it will be. good if. conor paul is like a spoken language and it's quickly becoming the musician's shared way of communiqué . when europeans really become immersed in these complex indian systems of sound and rhythm it's a question sort of crowd has been asking for years. before i thought this i was like a big experiment could i a western musician who plays drums but not tabla learn the system up to speed this is and then bring my own musical traditions to the instrument of the sick put it in the agony but it's what i call. the. serenity is really a pioneer of indian music you can use issues call him ocean of rhythm with them in a way he's very traditional at the top of it he does traditional teaching he believes in the old guru shishya system of teachers and disciples that's been in india from malaria get thousand people that he thought to teach us and his disciple now with teacher himself the perfect bridge between two cultures to get. to joe's. more. important mission. where would you value. your more knowledge of something but. it's a crash course for the german percussionist a lot of new information and background in a short space of time. but just one day with a rich g. has had a big impact on their playing. the german percussionist have come to this new. nicol instrument shop to learn about the tabla the famous indian drum with a remarkable sound range i think yeah yeah that put in for the think a high pitch that. this typical circular black eye on top is known as a shiny it's made from a dried hard paste and to determine the turn and pitch of the top it's just still. getting your attention has to be adjusted precisely using the wooden sections between the body and the straps. says. that. it's day four of the workshop and just the second day with the guru but he's already won everyone over. there and. i think that. this is. although there aren't any written notes numbers and letters can help people learn this plenty of space to improvise within certain strict rules. a guest has come to visit virtual so flute player blackish child us year he and downhearted composing a piece commissioned by george vaillant that these musicians will have formed for the first time at the beethoven festival involved. well for me it's really winter because i've not done this before things in this whole first thing working with pretty big thirty five or forty years of orchestra so it's a big. i think for me and i'm going to do any grammar experiment in music because. music needs to be express day by day. they have to learn fast and they're all giving their best on the long stay of the workshop in india everything has to run smoothly the next time they meet will be in pawn in a few months shortly before the concert was up to. that fact that. they are going from there the current gen only has a very rapid teaching pace it's really hard for us to keep up sometimes. to challenge the ones i was but it's a lot of fun and we've been learning so much because it will. be six six. hundred years for the indian musicians have learned not to see. the usual thing. and be these are not new but i think the length. of their culture and. the. difficulties of being. so difficult i don't think there was any other anything difficult it was a small joining really had a great experience and i'm going to judge these three d. as i said the n.c.p. or photo for the long. the next day that will to mumbai. five months later on a late summer's day by the river rhine the indian musicians arrive in bonn a few days ago. in addition to their daily rehearsals they want to experience the country everyone has stayed in touch since the workshop in mumbai. i think it's a very healthy mix we're like a family and we share this love of music regardless of which continent or from continents. and over i think we musicians meet friendships blossom straight away to get along since it's. been rehearsing for five days than how to interact have a name to a piece commission for the beethoven festival she's met. our guest mark is a beautiful composition we have the. highlight of that is the flute mr is to join us yeah it's kind of early was it out blame us because the puzzle piece is great it's so intriguing the way these two worlds melt together so perfectly. this month as has been a very special piece to all of us and it's the first time that we're performing at the beethoven festival so curious excited and looking forward to. the final rehearsal before their debut performance there are several other pieces written in mumbai that will be on the program tonight as well. as always there are some last minute changes. i want everything goes one octave higher from forty six on that one octave higher. than now they're also being accompanied by a symphony orchestra the german use orchestra has been rehearsing kismet with the percussionist and rockers showed us the master of the bun sori flute for a week. yes in the meantime banhart and the rhythm section perfect the school and the sound. system for you guys have been doing a great job so far of it. only home it seems we spent the first three days tuning the orchestra is ok that's what took two now i have to change the composition a little composites on the piece in tune and moves very effective contests on the cost of the space and the string section of it overstuffed i don't think you can play any quieted doesn't make sense for you to play piano when everyone else is playing for ten years we just need to thin you out a bit in fact the phone for ten most of. the article once again cannot color becomes the common language to time each instrument if it was in. as opposed to the r. and for any six. piece to going on with the pace of off the arms and off the arms. of the. bomb. it's a premier in every sense of the word there's never been a bunch an indian bamboo. in a symphony orchestra before. you know nation and experimentation to chill composers are in good company when you fall far from class i mean it was clear from the start what would beethoven do you know maybe not indian music but he would certainly try something new. that he would do something no one's ever done before something that interests him that he would try to push the boundaries so. he would have been your he would have loved it. but hopefully. the indian music and the western classical has a very real blend to each other so that i think that's an innovation and in the music because i think it's not happened before at classical john are adding up to symphony orchestra. his moods evening premiere in the bomb congress center will be young musicians be up to the challenge of trying to just one week of a hassle it's. just me means fate and fate is the most of the twenty eighteen beethoven festival. play play. play . let's. play. a
