Only god knows how much I LOVE Indian traditional music. I traveled to India last year and stayed at a hotel on the bank of Ganga river. Every morning they play Ganga Flute to wake you up. That felt like waking up in the heaven. Please cherish your beautiful heritage and be proud of it, my indian friends. Respect and love from China. (Edit: I’m Chinese but immigrated to Europe. My best friend here is a German-Indian! I must be an indian in my past life I think!😂😊)
To fully appreciate this, you need to know its history. In 1966, this was recorded by the greatest Sitarist alive (Ravi, Anoushka’s dad) and greatest Violinist alive (Menuhin). I have listened to that piece several hundred times in the last 14 years. Blew mind to see these women perform this 50 years later, NOTE FOR NOTE. Goosebumps.
@@kirtigupta9753 Ravi Shankar was definately a great muscian who brought indian classical music to the mainstream audiance in america and india but he was a flawed man in his personal life who ruined the career of his wife, a musical genius who never performed publically after her disputes with ravi shanker. He also cheated on his wife and then left his child, nora jones, alone. Funny enough nora ended up becoming a successful american singer herself without much support from her father and eventually, she forgave him but to this day she never credits him for any of her musical success because he was never there to support her through it and it was purely a result of her will and her mothers guidance.
@@hj2479 yes manh ! Whn I observe there people who we consider great .. at one corner has a flawed life story......no offence though . They r legends...
It reminds me of 40 years ago, when I lived in Nepal and India. The music there isn't like western music. It grows from the ancient earth. I know that sounds dumb, but I don't know how else to describe it.
Kevin Erhardt Hansen : That is true, rooted in old culture. This is one favourite, you can hear it's rooted the culture from villages deep in dark Swedish forests of old (not the best audio but with translation of lyrics): ruclips.net/video/-zopUsiiuZE/видео.html
@@assyrianbull I wish you the very best as you explore the art of the violin. You couldn't have a better roll model than Koparchinska. I had the good fortune to see her in concert here in Los Angeles. She is truly a force of nature. She received a standing ovation after the FIRST movement of the Tchaikovsky concerto.
La vida es impredecible,, miren ha miren a mis nietas regalonas...ahora se subieron al piano ...cría culecos y veras... Otro se quiere pasar de astuto...cuando.
In the seventies my father went to India to study and came back from there with shankar music and i fell in love with music when i was five years old and till now after 42 years old when I hear it l feel deep comfortable❤
Both ladies are phenomenal players; what a beautiful concert; never thought a Russian (??)violinist could play Indian music so well; their interaction is flawless;
Moldavian. (Soviet at that times.) Ravi Shankar, father of Anoushka cooperated with pleasure to Yehudi Menuhin for some music sessions, so the way has already been discovered, these two instruments can work together perfectly.
This was a fusion of western and Indian classical, a piece composed by Ravi Shankar to be played as a marriage of western classical music and Indian classical music
I had the great pleasure of hearing Ravi Shankar in 1972 at Brunel University in London. A most delightful man. It is fantastic to see the personality and musicianship continued.
I discovered Ravi when two friends and I skipped school and went to the movie "Monterey Pop Festival" in 1968. Went right out and bought an album that I still have. Anoushka is proudly carrying on her dad's legacy. Beautiful and harmonic. Funny how Ravi's facial features translate to the female form and change from his impish round face to the beauty that she presents.
What I love is that they Easterized the violin without Westernizing the Sitar. They also Easternized Patricia's dress without Westernizing Anoushka. 10/10
Anoushka's playing fills my heart to bursting and brings tears to my eyes. The pain becomes so exquisite I have to get up and dance to ease it. I'm 70 and haven't danced for years.
Never has an instrumental brought me to tears. I closed my eyes and meditated to the first half of this song - the tears were flowing. Absolutely beautiful.
Fun fact: Anoushka's dad Ravi Shankar taught Beatle George Harrison to play the sitar, and George later played sitar on the song "Norwegian Wood" from The Beatles' 1965 album "Rubber Soul."
Except that in Norwegian Wood he played the sitar like he woul an acoustic guitar. It was 2 years later with "Within you without you" that he played it more traditionally.
Raag Piloo is so deeply enchanting, it invokes a complex range of emotional vibrations in the heart chakra. Impossible to describe in words. The soul delights in pure bliss.
The way they play off each other, the emotion in their expressions, the ebb and flow of the raga...it is the musical embodiment of life, divinity, all that is, has been and ever will be...transcendence itself
“Child’s spirit” you better not say specific things like that. It could insult the musician. They may think you are insulting them and calling them a “child”
I'm not sure if they were looking to portray fast music, if so, violin can be played faster than this. It's the essence of the piloo raag itself to be played as if a child is running through a garden behind a butterfly in awe. Once you are immersed in their playing, you hear the child's footsteps through the garden and there's a scenario created in your mind. Props to Pandit Shankar for this composition as well.
@@therockstar5027 Depends on the person picking it up really, I've known people playing violins for 10+ years and still not mastering it. I've known people taking up sitar and mastering it really quickly and vice versa as you've mentioned. You can't categorize an instrument into a specific learning years.
This is one of the greatest things I've ever seen in my life. The amount of love for music one must have to execute that so incredibly well and with such vigor. This is a feat of humanity.
I think you should watch the Bollywood movies songs like Morey Piya , Dola re Dola , Kahe Chhed Mohe , Maar Daala , Silsila Ye Chahat Ka...! Nd also Kathak dance nd Bharatnatyam and other Indian classical Dance.... Thank U 💫
@@dhruv.1.2 Are you serious? You want to recommend bollywood music to someone who's smitten by the instrument? Get a life, dude. You have literally insulted the 100s of Pandits, Ustads, Samragnis who spent their entire lives devoted to Carnatic music. What an idiot.
This style is called Carnatic music, and its spread across dozens of various beautiful instruments, stringed, wind, and beat. Check out Pandit Vikku Vinayakram, Ustad Zakir Husain, Pt Kadri Gopalnath, Niladri Kumar, Pt Ravishankar, Pt Bhimsen Joshi, Smt Kaleeshabee Mohammad, TM Krishna, Pt Rakesh Chourasiya, Pt Hariprasad Chaurasia, Pt Balmuralikrishna, if you want to explore the Beauty that Indian Carnatic music has. And do see Anoushka Shankar live if you get an opportunity.
Love how Patricia is playing this beautiful raaga on Violin! clearly not very easy for her and she's gone out of her comfort zone to excel this! Sitar is always so beautiful to listen to, top it up with Violin and it's like cheese flowing over pizza! Love it !
Just sublime and most rewarding to be still in this world to enjoy such magical sounds Thank you ,long life to these great great artists Nalen Mauritius
Both musicians are in my opinion forces of nature. I've had the good fortune to see PatKop (as her friends call her) in concert. She embodies your statement of what it takes to be a real musician.
It's a very beautiful piece. Like what the comments has stated before. I love the fact they have a two distinct stringed instruments, techniques and expressions but can sing together in tandem. Many people don't know that the tanpura is the foundation to creating ragas but all the instruments are equally important. I love the fact they are having fun and showcasing a very intricate piece. Very beautiful to show homage and tribute to your father on many occasion and never disappoint with your interpretation of what you feel. Again, beautiful piece.
Are you kidding? This is one of the best musical duets of any style of music that I have ever heard and seen! All I can say is WOW! Two musical goddess geniuses taking it to great heights of ecstasy and performance collaboration!
Listen to Indian Hindustani Classical music by the greatest violinist of India, Dr.N.Rajam whose violin can make the coma patient come out of coma (Really!!)
Tears in my eyes will never end. Thanks to Anushka, she showed us Patricia. And Bose Ji, what can I say. In my first poetry book I wrote a poem about Ravi Ji and Yahudi Ji. In my future books, I'm writing about Anushka. Now, near the tail end of my life, I feel heavenly good that I experienced such beautiful folks.
No matter what race, ethnicity, nationality, color or gender - Music is a universal language we ALL speak and it is something that should bring us all together!
It’s January 2020 and I am still listening. Listening It Takes me back to my village as a happy kid who had everything Tall mango trees, lazy river and sugarcane fields. Beautiful sunsets and amazing sunrise. Never ending festivals and games..can someone please make a time machine to go back to past
I remember listening to the original vinyl record and watching my dad play his tabla in our living room. He kept up with the record beat for beat. Watching this makes me realize just how good he was at playing the tabla. His was a very special father. Enjoyed listening to this version very much.
Magnifique !!! Merci à tous les artistes, à Anoushka et à cette très grande 🎻. Toujours merveilleuses !!! Du travail et de belles productions et de qualités !!! BRAVOOO.....ET merci. BenjWaganFay/ SÉNÉGAL / AFRIQUE
What can a musician say about this ? So fantastically beautiful and brilliantly performed.The lovely Indian culture Thanks so much for posting . This is a treasure.
There may be no proper way to thank the poster for uploading this. 25 years ago, I saw Anoushka and her father play Symphony Hall, Boston. This was my favorite piece from her father's legacy, and is a spectacular performance from all parties. The violin here is blazing. I remain confident this will stand as my "Post of the Year" (even though I'm finding it 7 years late.) Simply awesome. Upvoted, with reverence, awe, and soaring joy.
I have recently started listening to classical music. Anushka you make all of us proud and so does Patricia. One of the greatest challenges, today is to be positive in a world negativity abounds and classical music helps us in building a fortress of positivity around us, Agree?
East meets west is a cliche -this is where music meets music, soul meets soul. Such a meeting can only take place when you have mutual respect and understanding for each other.
While Anoushka's playing is truly amazing, I cannot help but marvel at the equally masterful and emotion evoking violin playing of Patricia.....Simply amazing..and so are the percussionists....overall, indeed a treat to ears and eyes.....to watch and hear this music in all it's resplendent glory.
A girl grown up in western world [most part of her life] playing sitaar and raga originated 100's of year back from hardcore Indian tradition and she is making the era alive ............I can't believe this. How is it possible. Impossible presentation..........speechless.
agan Listening to Ravi Shankar in the Spring of 1967 In Vietnam . I was 20 and possibly the only one in my company that did so . ( I was asked to use "Headphones" while Listening) I am 74 at this point in my Life and still the Joy in my Soul remains for His music and now His Beautiful Daughters music . She is on my Bucket List . I am hoping she comes to America soon . Anoushka are you Listening .
Your comment just made me cry, you pulled out something out of my heart, which was deep down there somewhere trying finding its way out, and you guided it.
The way their fingers dance on the strings , the body expresions and faces full love, love to what they are creating. No words, my heart dance and my eyes cries... you cant hide emotions while listening this piece. That's where East meets West in the most beautiful way.💚
Patricia Deserves a Salute for being able to play and perform in front of a legendary representative of Indian classical music. Patricia performed graciously and deserves huge respect and recognition in india. Lots of love and Respect to these great artists.. ❤️❤️
Actually, I was thinking the violin part did not really venture outside the discipline of Western musical tradition... which is not to say it did not fully embrace the Indian. I think the composers wrote this in the common ground of both traditions.
@@preetikushwa7032 Thank You! I think I am at the beginning of a big journey into Indian music (ignited by a love I have always had for the sound of Tabla) I have spent many years immersed in Western classical, Renaissance to 20th Century, Chamber, Orchestral, Choral, Opera, Jazz and Rock... now I hear Indian music like I have never heard it before.
@@markwilding3828 thank you for replying. Do listen to the composition of Tansen, the pioneering father of Hindustani classical music. If you want to know more about the musical heritage of India,i will suggest the 'epified channel' and the 'epic channel', they have good videos on the history indian music. Thank you again.
Amazing....not to bragg, but I saw Anoushka live at UCR and I remember that the music was better live than I ever could've imagined, and I remember that after each song Anoushka would laugh. It was an amazing night. I told her later that she sounded wonderful. She stared past me and said thank-you. She was so beautiful.
What a dream come true, I had the original vinyl records of West meets East. I have the cd. I always wanted to see this preformed live. You can close your eyes and hear it note for note, Anouskha played with the same mastery as her father and Patricia played at the same level as Menuhin. Couldn't take my eyes off them. Watching them play together was a shear delight. Thank You for sharing this Treasure with all of us. 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Aside from the video, which cannot be described in words, the comments on this video make me cry with joy. There should be some kind of "thumbs up" weighting system on RUclips given the outpouring of positive vibes associated with the likes this video has. I had the honor of seeing Anushka and Ravi perform together many years ago. It changed my life.
I had the great joy, also, of seeing Anoushka perform with her father, in May 2005. So profound to experience his pride in her carrying on his tradition so expertly; she outshone him in virtuosity and as an old man who had helped her have that ability (from genetics to instruction) he seemed very content to be able to basically accompany her and let her shine. He received an extended standing ovation in Seattle's Benaroya Hall (5/14/91).
Such a beautiful musical rendition. I wonder why some 1.3k grumpy souls would dislike the celestial delivery of music from the beautiful souls of light.
Absolutely phenomenal collaboration. They all played with so much skill and passion. Hats off to Patricia Kopatchinskaja for playing in a style which was completely out of her comfort zone . She has described it as one of the happiest days of her musical career and it shows in this performance. A delight to watch and listen to
It was just magic and Ms. Kopatchinskaja's talents are just supreme. It's not at all surprising to me that she might feel that way as Yehudi Menuhin had said the same thing about his collaborations with Ravi Shankar - that they were some of the true high points of his musical life.
You may not like Indian music… you may not like classical music… but to hear and see Anoushka Shankar and Patricia Kopatchinskaja play together is spellbinding. Their musicianship is un-parraleled. As the piece builds, you see the passion and respect for each other though the music.
I was fortunate enough to witness a performance by Anoushka many years ago at Northwestern University north of Chicago IL. I have always loved traditional Indian music too! Especially the tablas! Stars: I echo your respect and love for Indian music and culture - from the USA.
Listen to Indian Hindustani Classical music by the greatest violinist of India, Dr.N.Rajam whose violin can make the coma patient come out of coma (Really!! It has happened once, you can read about it in the news)
I have only played European classical music (Vivaldi, Mozart, Paginini, etc) on the violin. But, as an Indian, it extremely amazing to see Patricia play the Raag so beautifully, along with the most talented Anoushka Shankar. I am deeply touched. I have put this video along with other sitar classical music videos on a loop.
I have never seen such a melodious harmony between sitar and violin. Both Anoushka and Patricia are really great! As somebody commented, it is heavenly music!!!
Much love from USA this is mother nature's melody's, I know if I'm ever upset to play this and look at the sun and the sky, and the earth around us and slip into a trancelike meditation state🙏🏻👍🏻
Expressions of Divinity. Both souls speak through their instruments... and their gift to us is as pristine as the most luminous and uplifting Light of love that a human being could experience...
Talentosíssimas! Anoushka sempre me deixa boquiaberta com seu imensurável talento! E sobre Patricia Kopatchinskaja: performance perfeita, extraordinária! Meu Deus, que talento extraordinário tem a Pako!!!
If you watch the whole thing from start to finish without any interruption, there's no way you're not going to cry with tears of joy at the end. Magic of Indian classical music.
In my 55 years as an avid connoisseur of music, I have finally reached the zenith of my listening experience, with the witnessing of this remarkable performance. Congratulations Anoushka, Patricia, Tanmoy and the other members of the ensemble. However, a thumbs down to RUclips, for inconveniently slotting in an ad midstream, to disturb and disrupt the flow of the music.
I only found this video by searching Patricia's name so it's very funny to me to see her referred to as "the lady on the violin". FWIW the lady on the sitar seem very poised.
Entendo ser um clássico indiano ...lamento não entender melhor, com profundidade o tema... só sei que achei lindo, a melodia, o talento dos músicos e sua dedicação e vontade...viveram a melodia, a arte...que lindo! Gratidão 🙏
Popular music which I thought was therapeutic to my spiritual soul cannot hold a candle to this. This music replicates the rhythm of our souls. It holds me where I am breathing better and do not want to let go.
It's amazing how Menuhin the British Jewish violinist and Shankar, the sitar player from India found one another and performed such music together. Thank you for this new performance!!
Love this! Can't get enough. I play tanpura and wonder: why are tanpura players always so staid? I'd be grinning from ear to ear at the sheer brilliance of the latter half of this performance, especially knowing the historical backstory of the raga.
Saraswati Mata Devi Avatara Jaya jaya Jaya!!! Tiene el mismo tempo, exacto, que su padre...una luz hecha sonido...y la violinista una maravilla... Alla Rakha Schooll!!
@@rodolforamirez4237 ¿Te refieres al Maestro Menuhin? Murió en Berlin en 1999 tras una glorioss carrera. Uno de los violinistas más grandes de la historia... curioso que preguntes.
This is a lovely version of a composition that came from a collaboration between the violinist Yehudi Menuhin and Ravi Shankar in the 1970s. Nice to see it lives on!
One thing i have learned, music have no barrier and it is an unique language that only felt by heart. I am Crying!! Lots of love and respect. From Calcutta, India.
What beautiful heavenly music, I started to like traditional Indian music through listening to the Beatles as a kid especially George Harrison With the Great Ravi Shankar, so thank you for sharing this with us.
Truly amazing melts your heart, gets your eyes wet. I’m not much of a believer but this is ultimate peace, this is heaven if there is one. Wonder why there’s so much war and hate in this world when the heaven is right here, why do we look for heaven through religion?
I looked at Patricia's dress and smiled. I love my first thoughts of why she chose that dress. She sacrificed so much to study music and become a very accomplished violinist growing up. Never learned to sew and do other things. That's what I see, and I love the idea. So play on Patricia with one of the most accomplished sitar players in the world. Show them how much you've learned!
Patricia is an inspiration. I m a listener, not an expert (visharad seems to be more appropriate) but I am everytime I hear her it is transcendental. I m just just so glad that three of my favorite musicians are on this video. Can't stop listening to this on continuous loop. I don't need heaven if I have this.
I don’t know why, it just made me cry. Seeing them move like that with so much joy as if they don’t care about anything other than what they do made me happy and very very sad.
Brought tears of heavenly bliss! GOD bless all the divine musicians here. I don't have enough words to express the range of emotions that I experienced as I was listening to these Gandharvas creating divine music.
This is amazing... my guess is that Patricia is well grounded in folk traditions from her native land and this kind of playing comes naturally. She is clearly having a great time in the dance between the performers. Anouchka is a stunning woman and awesome performer. Wow!

I don't know who "they" are. Patricia probably chose her own dress, like 99% of performing artists ^^
Anoushka's playing fills my heart to bursting and brings tears to my eyes. The pain becomes so exquisite I have to get up and dance to ease it. I'm 70 and haven't danced for years.
Please dance if able to and dont care who is watching... even yourself!! dont mind the steps and just move with your intuition with music...

Ah the exquisite pain of bursting back into the dance!
You are such a poet! Bless you💖

Raag Piloo is so deeply enchanting, it invokes a complex range of emotional vibrations in the heart chakra. Impossible to describe in words. The soul delights in pure bliss.
Hats off to Kopatchinskaja, it's really difficult for a violin to keep up with the sitar. And she did a splendid job. Great violinist.
Yes.....you should sometimes listen to violin from Dr.N.Rajam or Kala Ramnath too.
Appreciate. Yet I am sure that you might have listened to Carnatic musicians such as Lalgudi Jayaraman, Kunnakkudi Vaidyanathan, L krishnan and all
Sitar , an instrument smuggled through heaven.
I think it took that trip quite willingly.
What about veena then?
I would say tanpura too, it's very good for mediation
Heaven another name is Planet Earth
Perfect thought
The way they play off each other, the emotion in their expressions, the ebb and flow of the raga...it is the musical embodiment of life, divinity, all that is, has been and ever will be...transcendence itself
My dear lord, I never heard of Patricia before, but she plays the violin absolutely flawlessly! The tone she produces is AMAZING!
She's a fascinating musician -- check out her other stuff!
Classical Indian music is amazing. Artists have such humility and devotion and respect for the music.
one of the finest performances I have ever seen. I"m 68.. seen a LOT!
Patricia looks like she is possessed by a child's spirit. love watching her play.
😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇
👍 yo right
Very beautiful music ❤❤❤❤
“Child’s spirit” you better not say specific things like that. It could insult the musician. They may think you are insulting them and calling them a “child”
Its natural for a Sitarist to play fast.... But, what Patricia did with a violin is just unbelievable...
True
I'm not sure if they were looking to portray fast music, if so, violin can be played faster than this. It's the essence of the piloo raag itself to be played as if a child is running through a garden behind a butterfly in awe. Once you are immersed in their playing, you hear the child's footsteps through the garden and there's a scenario created in your mind.
Props to Pandit Shankar for this composition as well.
sitar is the toughest instrument to play .. it takes years n years of experience . .violin u can excel in 3 to 4 yrs
@@therockstar5027 Depends on the person picking it up really, I've known people playing violins for 10+ years and still not mastering it. I've known people taking up sitar and mastering it really quickly and vice versa as you've mentioned. You can't categorize an instrument into a specific learning years.
Not a correct analogy
This is one of the greatest things I've ever seen in my life. The amount of love for music one must have to execute that so incredibly well and with such vigor. This is a feat of humanity.
OMG. It's my frist time listening this style of music and seeing this instrument. Simply AMAZING!!!! 🇧🇷 Thank you for the opportunity!
I think you should watch the Bollywood movies songs like Morey Piya , Dola re Dola , Kahe Chhed Mohe , Maar Daala , Silsila Ye Chahat Ka...!
Nd also Kathak dance nd Bharatnatyam and other Indian classical Dance....
Thank U 💫

@@dhruv.1.2 Are you serious? You want to recommend bollywood music to someone who's smitten by the instrument? Get a life, dude. You have literally insulted the 100s of Pandits, Ustads, Samragnis who spent their entire lives devoted to Carnatic music. What an idiot.
This style is called Carnatic music, and its spread across dozens of various beautiful instruments, stringed, wind, and beat. Check out Pandit Vikku Vinayakram, Ustad Zakir Husain, Pt Kadri Gopalnath, Niladri Kumar, Pt Ravishankar, Pt Bhimsen Joshi, Smt Kaleeshabee Mohammad, TM Krishna, Pt Rakesh Chourasiya, Pt Hariprasad Chaurasia, Pt Balmuralikrishna, if you want to explore the Beauty that Indian Carnatic music has. And do see Anoushka Shankar live if you get an opportunity.
Love how Patricia is playing this beautiful raaga on Violin! clearly not very easy for her and she's gone out of her comfort zone to excel this! Sitar is always so beautiful to listen to, top it up with Violin and it's like cheese flowing over pizza! Love it !
Just sublime and most rewarding to be still in this world to enjoy such magical sounds
Thank you ,long life to these great great artists

Love your analogy!! Both women are absolutely amazing. Every time I listen to this piece , I am literally in heaven.
I don't disagree, but most jarring simile ever! Like raita on your shashlik, surely?
Stud Kumar?
@@6piyushc Ji Maalik!
Both of them, shredding their instruments. I'm glad there's still some real music somewhere. Respect from the USA.
Both musicians are in my opinion forces of nature. I've had the good fortune to see PatKop (as her friends call her) in concert. She embodies your statement of what it takes to be a real musician.
It's felt like two instruments were having conversations. Amazing
It's a very beautiful piece. Like what the comments has stated before. I love the fact they have a two distinct stringed instruments, techniques and expressions but can sing together in tandem. Many people don't know that the tanpura is the foundation to creating ragas but all the instruments are equally important. I love the fact they are having fun and showcasing a very intricate piece. Very beautiful to show homage and tribute to your father on many occasion and never disappoint with your interpretation of what you feel.
Again, beautiful piece.
Again, just beautiful ❤️ and a wonderful tribute to your late father who would be so proud of you! ♥️
Are you kidding? This is one of the best musical duets of any style of music that I have ever heard and seen! All I can say is WOW! Two musical goddess geniuses taking it to great heights of ecstasy and performance collaboration!
Listen to Indian Hindustani Classical music by the greatest violinist of India, Dr.N.Rajam whose violin can make the coma patient come out of coma (Really!!)

Tears in my eyes will never end. Thanks to Anushka, she showed us Patricia. And Bose Ji, what can I say.
In my first poetry book I wrote a poem about Ravi Ji and Yahudi Ji. In my future books, I'm writing about Anushka. Now, near the tail end of my life, I feel heavenly good that I experienced such beautiful folks.
Wishing you a prolonged healthy life.

No matter what race, ethnicity, nationality, color or gender - Music is a universal language we ALL speak and it is something that should bring us all together!
Wise words
I agree
It’s January 2020 and I am still listening. Listening It Takes me back to my village as a happy kid who had everything Tall mango trees, lazy river and sugarcane fields. Beautiful sunsets and amazing sunrise. Never ending festivals and games..can someone please make a time machine to go back to past
This, my friend is the Time Machine !!
I remember listening to the original vinyl record and watching my dad play his tabla in our living room. He kept up with the record beat for beat. Watching this makes me realize just how good he was at playing the tabla. His was a very special father. Enjoyed listening to this version very much.
How wonderful a memory that must be!
Magnifique !!!
Merci à tous les artistes, à Anoushka et à cette très grande 🎻.
Toujours merveilleuses !!!
Du travail et de belles productions et de qualités !!!
BRAVOOO.....ET merci.

Anoushka and Patricia are a wonderful pair. This raga couldn’t be made better.
I hope that we can have them one day in Denmark. I love them.
Everyone put in a stellar performance.
One of them is Pedro Eustache, right?
And the 'Master' at tabla- Tanmoy Bose.
GREAT INDIA with there philosophy and music NAMASTE from Portugal i play Portuguese guitar but i think i am going to buy and learn Sitar!!!!
Namaste...
Sir try another instrument,,That's called Saraswati Veena...
Thank you .
Why don't you learn indian ragas and try them on guitar.
You are most wellcome.......
I love when she looks at the tabla player and goes "do it"
made me smile outwardly while my heart smiles inside.
What a beautiful performance!
Oh my God. Some people are a gift to the rest of us mere mortals. Superb
What can a musician say about this ? So fantastically beautiful and brilliantly performed.The lovely Indian culture Thanks so much for posting . This is a treasure.
There may be no proper way to thank the poster for uploading this. 25 years ago, I saw Anoushka and her father play Symphony Hall, Boston.
This was my favorite piece from her father's legacy, and is a spectacular performance from all parties. The violin here is blazing.
I remain confident this will stand as my "Post of the Year" (even though I'm finding it 7 years late.)
Simply awesome.
Upvoted, with reverence, awe, and soaring joy.
Do you want hear best of all sitar music?
I have recently started listening to classical music. Anushka you make all of us proud and so does Patricia. One of the greatest challenges, today is to be positive in a world negativity abounds and classical music helps us in building a fortress of positivity around us, Agree?
Totally gagiyaji
Absolutely right !!
East meets west is a cliche -this is where music meets music, soul meets soul. Such a meeting can only take place when you have mutual respect and understanding for each other.
I come back to watch this video frequently!! I love their dynamic playing together and the non verbal communication 👏 ❤️
I feel one with the universe after listening this... lots of love from Canada...
I saw your comment on last video too
😘😘😘😘 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💋💋💋💋💋💋💋❤️❤️❤️😘😘🥰🥰😍😍😍😍❤️❤️💋💋💋💋💋💔💔💔💔
While Anoushka's playing is truly amazing, I cannot help but marvel at the equally masterful and emotion evoking violin playing of Patricia.....Simply amazing..and so are the percussionists....overall, indeed a treat to ears and eyes.....to watch and hear this music in all it's resplendent glory.
A girl grown up in western world [most part of her life] playing sitaar and raga originated 100's of year back from hardcore Indian tradition and she is making the era alive ............I can't believe this. How is it possible. Impossible presentation..........speechless.

She is on my Bucket List . I am hoping she comes to America soon . Anoushka are you Listening .
If you understand and appreciate something like this then you have passed through many filters to experience something so precious.

Your comment just made me cry, you pulled out something out of my heart, which was deep down there somewhere trying finding its way out, and you guided it.
Like filtered coffee.
Too proud to born in this culture.
A comment not everyone will understand the depth of it..
The way their fingers dance on the strings , the body expresions and faces full love, love to what they are creating. No words, my heart dance and my eyes cries... you cant hide emotions while listening this piece. That's where East meets West in the most beautiful way.💚
Patricia Deserves a Salute for being able to play and perform in front of a legendary representative of Indian classical music. Patricia performed graciously and deserves huge respect and recognition in india. Lots of love and Respect to these great artists.. ❤️❤️
Not only mastered Indian music but Patricia has even adopted the Indian gestures and head shakes when playing bravo!
Yeah... that's a part of our music 🇮🇳🙏
Actually, I was thinking the violin part did not really venture outside the discipline of Western musical tradition... which is not to say it did not fully embrace the Indian. I think the composers wrote this in the common ground of both traditions.

@@preetikushwa7032 Thank You! I think I am at the beginning of a big journey into Indian music (ignited by a love I have always had for the sound of Tabla) I have spent many years immersed in Western classical, Renaissance to 20th Century, Chamber, Orchestral, Choral, Opera, Jazz and Rock... now I hear Indian music like I have never heard it before.
@@markwilding3828 thank you for replying. Do listen to the composition of Tansen, the pioneering father of Hindustani classical music.
If you want to know more about the musical heritage of India,i will suggest the 'epified channel' and the 'epic channel', they have good videos on the history indian music.
Thank you again.
Amazing....not to bragg, but I saw Anoushka live at UCR and I remember that the music was better live than I ever could've imagined, and I remember that after each song Anoushka would laugh. It was an amazing night. I told her later that she sounded wonderful. She stared past me and said thank-you. She was so beautiful.
What a dream come true, I had the original vinyl records of West meets East. I have the cd. I always wanted to see this preformed live. You can close your eyes and hear it note for note, Anouskha played with the same mastery as her father and Patricia played at the same level as Menuhin. Couldn't take my eyes off them. Watching them play together was a shear delight. Thank You for sharing this Treasure with all of us.
🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Aside from the video, which cannot be described in words, the comments on this video make me cry with joy. There should be some kind of "thumbs up" weighting system on RUclips given the outpouring of positive vibes associated with the likes this video has. I had the honor of seeing Anushka and Ravi perform together many years ago. It changed my life.
Yes Indeed
🙂🙏
I had the great joy, also, of seeing Anoushka perform with her father, in May 2005. So profound to experience his pride in her carrying on his tradition so expertly; she outshone him in virtuosity and as an old man who had helped her have that ability (from genetics to instruction) he seemed very content to be able to basically accompany her and let her shine. He received an extended standing ovation in Seattle's Benaroya Hall (5/14/91).
Such a beautiful musical rendition. I wonder why some 1.3k grumpy souls would dislike the celestial delivery of music from the beautiful souls of light.
Absolutely phenomenal collaboration. They all played with so much skill and passion. Hats off to Patricia Kopatchinskaja for playing in a style which was completely out of her comfort zone . She has described it as one of the happiest days of her musical career and it shows in this performance. A delight to watch and listen to
It was just magic and Ms. Kopatchinskaja's talents are just supreme. It's not at all surprising to me that she might feel that way as Yehudi Menuhin had said the same thing about his collaborations with Ravi Shankar - that they were some of the true high points of his musical life.
@@vb14086 I agree 100%
You may not like Indian music… you may not like classical music… but to hear and see Anoushka Shankar and Patricia Kopatchinskaja play together is spellbinding. Their musicianship is un-parraleled. As the piece builds, you see the passion and respect for each other though the music.
I was fortunate enough to witness a performance by Anoushka many years ago at Northwestern University north of Chicago IL. I have always loved traditional Indian music too! Especially the tablas! Stars: I echo your respect and love for Indian music and culture - from the USA.
Listen to Indian Hindustani Classical music by the greatest violinist of India, Dr.N.Rajam whose violin can make the coma patient come out of coma (Really!! It has happened once, you can read about it in the news)
I have only played European classical music (Vivaldi, Mozart, Paginini, etc) on the violin. But, as an Indian, it extremely amazing to see Patricia play the Raag so beautifully, along with the most talented Anoushka Shankar. I am deeply touched. I have put this video along with other sitar classical music videos on a loop.
Please share other classics.
I have never seen such a melodious harmony between sitar and violin. Both Anoushka and Patricia are really great! As somebody commented, it is heavenly music!!!
Look up ravi an philip glass
this is east meets west on the highest level. two absolute masters made a firework of musical expression. I also love the worldclass tabla player.
The expression of passion on all their faces is priceless, violin player extreme and beautiful
Much love from USA this is mother nature's melody's, I know if I'm ever upset to play this and look at the sun and the sky, and the earth around us and slip into a trancelike meditation state🙏🏻👍🏻
Ya this is real state of trance Organic
Expressions of Divinity. Both souls speak through their instruments... and their gift to us is as pristine as the most luminous and uplifting Light of love that a human being could experience...
Talentosíssimas! Anoushka sempre me deixa boquiaberta com seu imensurável talento! E sobre Patricia Kopatchinskaja: performance perfeita, extraordinária! Meu Deus, que talento extraordinário tem a Pako!!!
The violinist made my day, she looks so pure ! Deep transe of creativity, that's the beauty of art
A joy to the ears, eyes and heart. What a magnificent performance! Namaste! 💞💞💞🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾✨
If you watch the whole thing from start to finish without any interruption, there's no way you're not going to cry with tears of joy at the end. Magic of Indian classical music.
In my 55 years as an avid connoisseur of music, I have finally reached the zenith of my listening experience, with the witnessing of this remarkable performance. Congratulations Anoushka, Patricia, Tanmoy and the other members of the ensemble. However, a thumbs down to RUclips, for inconveniently slotting in an ad midstream, to disturb and disrupt the flow of the music.
The lady on the violin is sure having a lot of fun. This is wonderful music.
I only found this video by searching Patricia's name so it's very funny to me to see her referred to as "the lady on the violin". FWIW the lady on the sitar seem very poised.
@@gabrielcayer2705 I found this video from looking up Norah Jones, so TMF.
Entendo ser um clássico indiano ...lamento não entender melhor, com profundidade o tema... só sei que achei lindo, a melodia, o talento dos músicos e sua dedicação e vontade...viveram a melodia, a arte...que lindo! Gratidão 🙏
Love the deconstructed dress and mad-scientist vibe from the Violinstress! 😄
She needed that intensity to make it magical.

It's amazing how Menuhin the British Jewish violinist and Shankar, the sitar player from India found one another and performed such music together.
Thank you for this new performance!!
Love this! Can't get enough. I play tanpura and wonder: why are tanpura players always so staid? I'd be grinning from ear to ear at the sheer brilliance of the latter half of this performance, especially knowing the historical backstory of the raga.
Wow amazed to know that you knw the history of the raga 😄

This is a lovely version of a composition that came from a collaboration between the violinist Yehudi Menuhin and Ravi Shankar in the 1970s. Nice to see it lives on!
All the musicians seemed to have found real joy in this performance --- that's what's flowing out of every note and beat. 5 years too late but Bravo!!
One thing i have learned, music have no barrier and it is an unique language that only felt by heart. I am Crying!! Lots of love and respect. From Calcutta, India.
What beautiful heavenly music, I started to like traditional Indian music through listening to the Beatles as a kid especially George Harrison With the Great Ravi Shankar, so thank you for sharing this with us.
Truly amazing melts your heart, gets your eyes wet. I’m not much of a believer but this is ultimate peace, this is heaven if there is one. Wonder why there’s so much war and hate in this world when the heaven is right here, why do we look for heaven through religion?
I looked at Patricia's dress and smiled. I love my first thoughts of why she chose that dress. She sacrificed so much to study music and become a very accomplished violinist growing up. Never learned to sew and do other things. That's what I see, and I love the idea. So play on Patricia with one of the most accomplished sitar players in the world. Show them how much you've learned!
ruclips.net/video/w0ObgSKBqTQ/видео.html
Patricia is an inspiration. I m a listener, not an expert (visharad seems to be more appropriate) but I am everytime I hear her it is transcendental. I m just just so glad that three of my favorite musicians are on this video. Can't stop listening to this on continuous loop. I don't need heaven if I have this.
I hartily agree--love that dress! Brilliantly done!
Is it for the reason that she should't feel constrained while playing the violin?
Or that her violin was more important than an interest in fashion
Both masters of their instruments. I am humbled to share the earth they tread.
Well said, MK.
M K every living thing shares the same earth!
That sounds much more of one amazing harmony.. east meets east . 😊
Omg the fucking retards are coming out of the woodwork... literally.

I don’t know why, it just made me cry. Seeing them move like that with so much joy as if they don’t care about anything other than what they do made me happy and very very sad.
By the end I didn't even realise I was in tears.
Pulled out so many emotions.
I forgot that time exists while I was listening to this cosmos - this reminded me our Persian poetry of Mawlana Rumi.
Special admiration to Patcia
Brought tears of heavenly bliss! GOD bless all the divine musicians here. I don't have enough words to express the range of emotions that I experienced as I was listening to these Gandharvas creating divine music.
truly magnificent listening to Indian music it felt like travelling trough ancient India
Beautiful .. Indian music is perhaps the worlds most refined.. love the way Patricia is enjoying herself. They are all so involved .. lovely
Un miracle aussi sublime
Un miracle d’une autre manière aussi sublime que Bach cette persévérence de la musique nous transporte vers la joie la plus adéquate GS
This is amazing... my guess is that Patricia is well grounded in folk traditions from her native land and this kind of playing comes naturally. She is clearly having a great time in the dance between the performers. Anouchka is a stunning woman and awesome performer. Wow!
