this gandharva gyle was born and brought up here in berlin but his parents from indonesia i mean he's a star and lives between the two cultures this mix is reflected in his playing and especially in his latest album i see which is an eclectic blend of all sorts of music and sounds be talking to him in a minute but first let's hear his music. let it hit. this kind are we jaya is a musician who doesn't like to be pigeonholed musically or personally the berliner with indonesian roots is an exceptional violinist who finds inspiration outside the world of classical music a collective charismatic driven for him the music is all that matters let's. make music to touch people to move them and to reach a point where we ourselves are so touched on stage that we can move others it doesn't work any other way. to indonesia is come often visits his parents homeland appearances in commercials on t.v. shows have made him a real pop star here. back in cologne germany is wide ranging repertoire is especially focused on the works of johann sebastian bach but he also plays covers from pop stars the main ingredient is always authenticity. ai we jaya began playing the violin when he was just four. he later study violin upper limbs university of the arts and soon began collaborating with world class conductors like a. recording demos for his next album which will incorporate a colorful mix of styles the musicians are experimenting with a piece by italian baroque composer pietro antonio look at to. keep your eyes and ears open for a violinist iskhandar with giant sequoia maverick. joins me now and he just told me that he was just the last you were just in i just returned from bali beautiful. now you're a pop star in that part of the world i guess mostly playing classical music and so do they have a different attitude to classical music there is here relaxed i feel like indonesia doesn't really have the tradition of having regular classical concerts that's why i enjoy so much playing you know bach beethoven brahms over there because people are thirsty hungry for it i feel like they're sucking in every note that play and it's something so special and outstanding for them to listen to pure classical music they don't have the tradition there so if you actually play a classical piece perhaps in a different way than you might here well i myself like to challenge my audience because i feel like it gives me a special energy when i feel that the audience has hear something that they don't hear every day so whenever i'm in indonesia of course i try and reach them on a very emotional level because people over there that's the only way you can take that in touch them over here i like to give a little bit of experimental challenging programs collaborating with all sorts of different artists out of my concert comfort zone and for me this is the most interesting thing to just reach out. and it's not just musical style your image is very important to you or i get that impression you you go. to a photo shoot you're on the front of cosmopolitan tommy hilfiger. does some of your clothes if you wanted to that's very important that well sort of happens i never force it into being it's just people sort of approach me if i want to be on an issue door and i kind of i don't refuse because it's. part of the spirit of our time i believe and why i say no to it's because as artists we have to be current we have to be relevant and we have to sort of get a grip of what is what's up today isn't it i think it's very refreshing now bach is the greatest for me my really really a lot of professional musicians say this they don't say mozart or beethoven what easy it. has everything it's like we say in german the essay and the it's it's has the perfect balance of you know triggering intellect reaching people's emotions it's not pure emotional music whenever i play to people that don't know the music so much i feel like they try and just look for the emotion in the music but it's so much more and it's the more you listen to it the more you dig into the music the more satisfying it actually becomes because there are infinite layers to this music and every day i discover something new in his music i practice every day one movement of my well that's fine again and every day i can also play it in a different way and it never becomes boring this music. let's talk about the new album which has sort of so many styles on and including albums called see this is a piece that i'm not sure which to who i know lived here a billion you told me vote interviews much for you going back to london but. i feel this is a very personal record it is and it's. an album that refuses compartmentalisation as i do as an artist i. i don't know i'm a very wild mix of different races even arabian chinese indonesian because both my parents are mixed so probably all those different genes reflect into my music and this album as you said very personal. intimate. and it's a very meditative album it reflects a lot of my past my childhood my my. sense because i used to meditate a lot i lived a very spiritual life back then so this is all part of my album that was my next question you know that it feels to me a very spiritual album that's very important yeah i mean is that also i mean i know one thing you don't like being called a child prodigy all this great because it was all down to a lot of hard work well i believe a certain amount of intelligence or talent is probably necessary in order to develop artistry or become of a professional violinist but it's only a very very small percentage and the rest if it's really the mental kind of. asset and the focus that the dictation that you put into it and and the amount of hours and work and heat you're doing now and soars and keep bringing classical music to the younger generation as you do it's kind of. i got it right oh it's hard to drive traffic here are you. so much ok now the great the good of the job in film industry converging on berlin for the annual german film awards this weekend and it's not just the honor of winning alone as the prize a cold they
