The Indian musicians can pick all that up by ear omg!
Thats a problem and an advantage both ... when you are grammar bound you loose creativity but that integrates fairly well within a large team of co-ordinated musicians; simply because you can explain the grammar to them. For Pandit RaviJI ..music came naturally .. that was embedded deep within his blood veins ... putting a his concepts within a western grammatical framework can be an absolute nightmare for the conductor of the orchestra. God only knows, how many rehearsals this one had to go thru, to bring it to this level of perfection
So could the Beatles!( even Paul cannot read a music note- But he can hear a “ d” , or “ c”)--( same with John) ( most don’t know this)-- and think of all the musical instruments Paul can play- this is how he taught his wife Linda to play- and his children-- the Beatles were geniuses!!!
@@annmcneal7804 I believe that was predominantly the influence of RaviShankar on the team. Bear in mind George (along with others in Beatles) and RaviShankar were very close associates and they exchanged musical ideas and concepts very often. So very likely, this concept of "playing by the ears and not by your textbook" was imbibed in the team via Ravishankar. Point to note here, is that one of the fundamentals of Indian music system is that it trains your ears first, over and above anything else. If you school with any Indian classical music "guru", the first thing he/she teaches is "keep your copybook aside, close your eyes and listen". Once you have acclimatized your ears, improvisations will automatically flow in".. as an artist that how your inherent creativity grows...
@Gunne_r r I would refrain from exercising phrases like "much more than western music", cause I dont think so. Each music has its own flavor, and I find it extremely difficult and awkward to compare the two. I cant say "Lasagna is much more than the Ravioli", personally speaking I like both Lasagna and Ravioli, cause both has different flavors and taste.
Yes they can pick it up by ear but I'm sure they can read music in a western style, as well. That's a bit of a sweeping generalization, by the xylophone player, to say "all the Indian musicians, they don't read music." Well how does he know that? Did he personally interview every single one of them? Maybe I'm generalizing here but only off of my past experiences… That's a rather classical thing to say. Because western classical music has every little inflection written in the music. They don't know how to come to life on their own necessarily. Not everybody is the same though…the Indian musicians read music likely, but they don't have a way of writing down every emotion, ornament and inflection possible…I mean, you know these Indian musicians; they're so gifted & taught from a young age, on so many styles of music, formally. Ravi Shankar's daughter Anoushka is a star sitar player, but she also plays classical piano. I mean look at her half sister Norah Jones! 🎹🪗🎶
I play Irish music on the fiddle 🎻🇮🇪🍀and whistle. While it's true a lot of it is by ear, I can read music too, I just never really have to. Depending on the piece of music I'm learning, there may not be any sheet music available, online, or anywhere. So it's up to me to "speak" the language of Irish music and be able to sing it, bc if you can sing it, you could play it. Like jazz or improv in a sense if you can vocalize and verbalize the melody, to a degree, it develops from there. Having a good ear, it takes listening to what you wanna play like, obsessively. When people ask myself and other Irish musicians how to play what we played, our answer is always start listening! Find the bands you like, the recordings you like and the tunes you like and just get it in your head - then you can sing it and hum along and, eventually, play.
Playing by ear is a bit of a broad statement to me... it just helps you get the inflections and the dynamics that you can't put into the music when it's written down. To hear a classical violinist play an Irish tune from sheet music is honestly painful, and hilarious, at the same time. Because it's so devoid of any life. We don't normally notate every ornament and improvisation that are possible. So the music written down is the bare bones. The same is true of this Indian music too.
The way Dhani just casually walks in and sits on the floor(not on chair) is a subtle way of seeing how much he respects the Hindu culture. His dad has really grown up a cultured kid.
Fun Fact. Dhani's name means "rich" both spiritually and economically. Also is the union of Dha and Ni, 2 notes of traditional Swaripi notation (old classical Indian music).
No hindu. Indian culture.
Hare Krishna.
Who's dhani
@@patrick4510 George Harrison's son.
The Beatles + India = HEAVEN😌
Hallelujah, Hare Krishna.
This shows how learning by ear is best
Not exactly that. Whatever suits you is all. If it works for you, then that's it. It's best for you.
Anoushka working with her father to paying tribute to Harrison is so wholesome
When Dhani said, "Do you know who would have really loved this?, DAD." It brought tears to my eyes. George really was a wonderful human being.
I always think of George when I go to the Krishna temple in London. Hare Krishna.
You are not the only one with tears. He looks almost identical to George.
@@misterree1443 in soho or neasden?
FUN FACT - Dhani is one of the Raagas from Indian classical music. I think that's how he named him.
RAVI SHANKAR..THIS MAN IS A LEGEND AND A GENIUS...,HIS MUSIC CAN HEAL BECAUSE IT COMES FROM HIS SOUL
I completely agree. Completely. Astounding beauty intention and presence.
100%
When East meet West. 😲😍
6:08
Shankar and clapton together
Gods of string !
100%
8:00 George must be smiling up there in heaven ❤️
He did make some really good friends, they really showed how much he meant to everyone.
George is definitely smiling from heaven, look at his son brother. I see a lot of George in him. He must be really proud of Dhani.
George was smiling...smiling THROUGH them
World is suffering with corona pandemic. Watching George Harrison tribute full concert can bring peace of mind and light up the world with hope and joy. Please upload full concert. Many thanks for your kind courtesy...
During 2013 the idian part of Concert for George _ "Arpan" (35min) was on TH-cam & downloadable & then, I downloaded the video. To upload, now, it may have copyright issues.
It's available on Spotify
Just buy the DVD, you cheapskate.
@@priyagupta6272 can you post the link here? i cant find it
George would've been 75 today.
We miss you George.
This Pedro guy I saw him in Yanni concerts where his flute playing is simply sensational and out of this world. I did not know he was the disciple of Ravi Shankar. Kudos!
Same!
his duduk sound in 'prelude'
@@omw2fub559 indeed!
i just know he is disciple of Ravi shankar. thank you
i remember him from there, he's a really beautiful musician.
First time I saw George Harrison son. He is spitting image of his dad.
george's son looks exactly like him!
I was thinking the same thing! Just showed that part to my twin sons (also musicians.)
What a beautiful tribute to George! 🕊💐
I had the privilege of seeing Ravi and Anoushka perform together. I have to separate it from every other concert/performance I’ve ever been to because it was on some other level. It was completely overwhelming in a most positive way!
George always loved classical music 😍
If you are thinkning "da-da- da, ra ra ra" is something is made up. This just for your info. Just like tabla in Sarod(not sure abour sitar) da and ra ar two syllable(bol like tabla) meaning down stroke and up stroke respectively.
So who ever playing/ following that instruction is following three things
1. Tal of the tabla
2. The notes(sargam)
3. Bol of the instrument(da da ra ra)
tal
RIP Ravi Shankar
Namaste🙏
No rest in peace for Hindus. Re incarnation is a fact for Sanatana Dharma.
@KaNaK Rest in peace means that someone is going somewhere but the Hindu say this is wrong, after death, there is birth until ultimately one realises that there is no birth, no death.
General, Do you have nuclear weapons?

Watching this brought tears to my eyes. If we, as a species, can do this, why then, oh why, do we still have wars, slavery, cruelty, exploitation, etc?
Very well said sir. In the end Music is the only source which can unites us. Roots level
Land,money,power....
Even chimps are extremely aggressive, it’s in our nature unfortunately.
@@greendash8765 Sadly, you are quite right; our cousins the chimps and we have evolved from an aggressive common species. I suppose it is the other side of the coin of high intelligence (e.g. Orcas), but perhaps we can, in time, rise above it.
@@greendash8765 Not in everyone's nature. Some have seen the suffering caused by ignorance and actively avoid it. Others don't. Some deliberately cause problems. Great point as it is in our nature. I got knives in my drawer but I just use them on vegetables very gratefully! Hare Krishna.
Guess who would've loved this?
DAD :(
Blissful! ❤️❤️❤️
Ok
@@buzzlightwork ok
This is so heart-touching! Impossible not to get emotional. This is divine. Fantastic.
I completely agree. Pure organic love power energy.
Thanks universe for bringing George and Ravi Shankar together
Deeply deeply sad that the full video is taken away. Kind request to TH-cam or producers of this concert kindly upload back or release DVD of this world masterpiece. This is the best fusion of all Indian instruments and world music lovers deserves to hear them..
Please show mercy. Thanks. ERIC Clapton performance and Tom petty lovely song.. missing it so much..
Do agree.
6:34!! Kya baath hai! Wow this is the spirit of music. What a beautiful legacy George Harrison has left.
I was at this show, and I regret now not paying more attention to the Indian music section. I clearly remember Anoushka playing however. And as I know much Indian music is improvisational, I was impressed they were able to reproduce George's song _The Inner Light_ so faithfully. It was a fantastic night for so many reasons. At the beginning, Ravi said, "I feel George's spirit is here with us". 🥲
I am from Uzbekistan. Listening Master sinse i was 17, or 18. Now, at 65, love listening
George deserves all the love in the world ❤️
Miss you my sweet lord ❤️
Wow.. have no words to describe this video. Thank you!! 🙏🏽
9:39 I can see Pandit Vishwa Mohan Bhatt as well.
So beautifully heart touching. More than words can say...
Dang. I’m adopted from Hungary and am 100% Roma (Lovarj and Romungro). Like, I’m actually Romani and as a result am over 1/3rd South Asia (mostly Indian). I’m so proud of my ancestry. It’s funny because all I do is improvise on guitar and bass, so it’s good to know that it’s a potentially
cultural thing.
Love it, bro. Much love to my Romani brothers. You should visit India with friends and enjoy a nice vacation there, dipping your feet in the Ganges and enjoying your motherland. Welcome.
:o mind blown.
More power to you bro, long live romani people🙏🙏
Yes we are blown away and blessed
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
"nothing to say" This BEAUTIFUL.
The way the violin was shredded at 6:34 made the Indian guy in the background say “Kya Baat” (What a beauty!). Even I was dumbfounded by the maestro in Ravi ji. 🙏🙏
I never knew that was Anoushka's mother singing! Amazing!
This whole concert is wonderful - if you haven't got it, you really must get it and listen.
Her Morher is better than Ravi shanker. her name is Anna purna devi.She is the daughter of the guru of ravi.
What a melting point of all the maestros!!! Blessed are the people who watched it live.....once in a lifetime
the percussionists are on another level
It's a world of difference from classically trained musicians who can read, play, and write pretty much any kind of music in the standard western world, and Indian music which is just way off the charts different. It's sort of like making a square peg fit in a round hole. In fact you can - with plenty of plaster, tools, ingenuity, and patience. And when it fits it's a wonderful thing!
So beautiful
I so enjoyed seeing what took place before the performance. I've listened to, watched and enjoyed Arpan many times, and to see all of what is shown here makes me appreciate it on an even higher level.
6:33 shows how much respect indian artists have for other musicians in that room for improvising on the spot
If clapton claps for you my friend you have achieved it.
I have the DVD of this entire concert, and it is my most prized possession. I shall never part with it.
Please share some part of it
😵woah. What's the DVD called?
@@samisthasinha3975 it is all available on TH-cam
@@subtanna no full concert is not available
Do you still have that? My humble and cordial request you to.please share with us in youtube..i have been searching for so.long but can not find
Just amazing and sublime
Wow... What a group... And Pedro.... I wish Yanni and Ravi Ji could have a colab
What a beautiful voice she has! @9:45 onwards
mr. clapton was there.....
glad to see him ❤️❤️
What if we have a world where legends live forever and every generation get to meet them.
The fact that all the players sitting on the floor are legends themselves and yet listening to Pandit ji like obedient students says a lot about Indian culture.
The Beatles were not readers of music notes- but knew notes by ear- people had no idea how crazy great the Beatles were... !!💕✌🏼
In Indian classical we don’t have a concept of written down sheet music nothing is written not even tabs or some other short cut. It’s pure pure pure technical music theory knowledge and on the spot improvisation
OMG This has made me emotional .
International ❤️- George made it international-the Beatles made it for Bangladesh- but since they did that of course it went worldwide!💕✌🏼( give peace a chance).
Love you George & Ravishankar We Saab☺️❤️🙏🏻🇮🇳❤️
He's fantastic, reminds me alot of Jorma Panula with his style!
Que pena que sacaron el concierto completo,sus arreglos están extremadamente formidables, ni siquiera puedo usar una palabra para describirlo, no tengo ese álbum tampoco 😪😑 así que disfruto aquí lo que permiten, maravilloso concierto Sr Clapton, Ravi, Ringo, Paul, Jeff, Dhani caramba gracias a todos estos grandes.
Perdón por no mencionar a todos 😍😍😍😍😍😍
This is so beautiful I love it! From one musician to another
Il pezzo che hanno eseguito è una delle cose più belle che io abbia mai ascoltato in tutta la mia vita.
Amazing- just notes by words of mouth!! Wow!!
Great name of Indian music Ravishankar ji🌺🌺🌺🙏🌟
Eric Clapton watching that mandolin guy and thinking I suck
Well he's a great blues guitarist himself but since he's not into indian classical music so he might not be able to produce micro tonal sounds like the mandolin guy but then again Clapton use of vibrato & sliding technique is really phenomenal too.
I've started listening to classical & indian classical music as well in 2013 when i was in 7th grade & Ravi Shankar works are 🙌🏻.
This video always gives me a sense of nostalgia 😍. Love this
There's no need really to insult a legend. Ask that mandolin guy and I'm sure he holds very high regards for Eric. You are a fool if you think Clapton can't play something like that. If Yngwie Malmsteen comes to this stage he'll blow away every other musician with his shredding. Everyone is unique in their own way.
There's no need to mock people who specialise in different areas.
The great guitar maestro Eric Clapton sitting with the maestro pandit Ravishankar 🙏🙏🙏🙌🙌
Great documentary! Thank you for sharing!
Shankar was a good man and a great master RIP
This is amazing.
I can't find the Indian part of the concert anymore !! Why did they take it away ? I love Indian music so much !
Even I've been searching for the Indian part since long. I used to play it all the time years back

Just Awesome :))
Great man 🙏🌹
Good video!
I had the good fortune of meeting them at The Ravi Shankar Centre ❤️
Genius!
Lovely ❤️
Incredible
Can you imagine reading notes off a page then suddenly Ravi wants to ad lib right in the middle?? No, he would wait for a solo, obviously. That's a lot of players to get on the same page but I would be nervous listening to Ravi recite 16th note melodies I'm supposed to remember hours later.
Is that Clapton??😯(2:18)
Clapton organised the concert. Why the surprise?
No no... I m not surprised.... I'm just feeling blessed to see so much of legecy in a single frame.... Clapton n pandit ji
so cool
Hermoso
wow.This is so awesome . Pt. Ravi shankar is amazing . Pedro eustache is here also .. awesome . i have seen Pedro play with Yanni
Pedro Eustache, clearly in trouble! everyone here is very talented!
