Stephen Slawek, sitar with Shyam Kane, tabla | Raga Multani
This is a recording of the first concert I performed after joining the faculty of the then Department of Music at the University of Texas at Austin. The concert took place in the spring of 1985. I played a lengthy exposition of Raga Multani, full alap and jor followed by vilambit and drut gats in tin-tala. I shared the evening with Kathak dancer Anjani Ambegaokar, who performed the second half of the concert. Shyam Kane, an early disciple of Ustad Zakir Hussain, accompanied on tabla.

This performance took place on March16, 1991 at the East-West Center in Honolulu, Hawaii. The sitar I used in this concert was made by Radha Krishna Sharma Co. in 1970. Radha Krishna himself worked on the instrument a number of times, once to add a cleat across the tabli to prevent further sinking and later to reset the neck. While the instrument was open he reduced the thickness of the cleat h...

This is the final item in the March 25, 1995 program. Khansaheb introduced the raga as originating with Lord Shiva, as his wife Parvati is also known as Bhairavi. Khansaheb elaborated that he would range over the various incarnations of the raga as it had evolved throughout time. He concluded his rendition with a short episode of saval-javab.

This is the concluding item of the jugalbandi I performed with my guru-bhai, Partho Sarothy. The balance of the instruments appears to be best in this item. It took the recording tech a while to get the sarod and sitar volumes to match. The sound in the hall was balanced. I could have used the original video with the sound in the hall, but decided to go with the cleaner recording done simultane...

มุมมอง 3584 ปีที่แล้ว
Raga Puriya is a difficult raga to present on the sitar. It is also a good example to demonstrate that a raga is not simply a collection of notes in a scale. Puriya is usually discussed along with Marwa and Sohini, as these three ragas share the same hexatonic pitch collection: a flat-2nd, raised 4th, and no fifth scale degree. Puriya and Marwa are comparable in that they are both ragas that le...

      I think it might be D.V. Paluskar's famous LP recording of Shree in jhaptal that has led to several performances of that raga in jhaptal. However, I know gats in tin-tala for Shree and Abhogi, and gats in jhaptal and rupak for Abhogi.

    Ed McMahon had a TV show in Philly before the tonight show. I was told he would have Joe on the show and introduce him as the greatest guitarist in the world. That seemed like hype at first, but being an older fellow myself now, and having heard a lot of players through the years, I'm totally willing to entertain the possibly that what Ed said was not really hype at all. What a time to be privileged to live through! Live on my three teachers and friends: Joe, Dennis, and Joe Federico, and the many other seminal shapers of the an electric guitar Florence, Philadelphia.
