Debapriya Adhikary, Samanwaya Sarkar and Madhurjya Ranjan Barthakur perform a Song of Return.
This is the second song that the trio performed for me privately at the hotel they were staying in. To recap, I have attended and attempted to document the Sharq Taronalari Festival in Samarkand for several years in a row. Each time I have been frustrated by promises to deliver the board audio that never materialize. So this time around, I determined that wherever possible I would get informal performances at the hotel where many of the musicians were staying. In this case, it is the Indian trio of Debapriya Adhikary on vocal, Samanwaya Sarkar on sitar, and Madhurjya Ranjan Barthakur on tabla. I am no expert on the subject of Indian music, so once again, I will leave it to Samanwaya to explain the music.
"This is a piece based on RAAG Madhuwanti which is an early evening melody set in Char Taal ki Sawari (11beats). The lyric says "Lagire Lagana Tose Shubho Shagoon Ayee Balma" which means "My husband has come home after a long time; it is a very joyous and pious moment for me."
This is most assuredly a showcase piece that displays the formidable command of voice and instruments displayed by all three musicians.

I met the band Ffynnon in of all places, Uzbekistan, where they were performing at the Sharq Taronalari festival. I fell in love with Lynne Denman’s beautiful voice, and later found myself singing along with the band, as I reviewed the video footage I had taken of them. As it turned out I spent 8 days in South Wales the next month, and that gave me the opportunity to capture two songs by the ba...

“Go light the lantern at your door And honor those who’ve gone before The worlds that part us now are twain For Hallow’s Eve is here again.” I had the great pleasure of attending the English Folk Expo or EFEx back in 2014.

The Sharq Taronalari Festival festival takes place in Samarkand Uzbekistan, every tow years, and is billed as an international music festival. Its main attraction for me is that one gets to hear a wide variety of music from the east, particularly Central Asia and its immediate environs. But it also welcomes music from other countries more far afield, from the USA to the island of Fiji. Getting ...

There was a definite frisson at WOMEX for Toko Telo, a Malagasy Trio with two acknowledged stars. For me, that frisson was mostly due to guitarist D’Gary. Of all the world music in my collection, Dama and D’Gary’s “The Long Way Home” is the only disk that my guitarist partner seems to enjoy hearing. That’s actually quite reasonable, since it is a guitarist’s dream of acoustic sounds, and I love...

In the midst of the delegate’s dinner at the English Folk Expo (EFEx), the duo of Harbottle and Jonas bravely presented a few songs. I say bravely, because diverting people from food, wine and business schmoozing is a challenging task, and odds of success are low. But after the first few chords, the room quieted somewhat - partly out of respect for the musicians but also for the dignity of the ...

Luciana Jury was one of the day case acts at WOMEX 2017, and she started her solo show off-mic, entering from the audience area and walking and singing to the stage. This was the start of a series of extremely emotional songs, wherein Ms. Jury used her vocal flexibility to make each song a small theater piece. This kind of dramatization is not for everyone, but when Ms. Jury sang “Lola” I knew ...

I was gratified to see them both looking almost unchanged except for some greyed hair and they both sounded marvelous. The show was a program ...

    I really think this is a good song with a nice message but at the same time I don't think people should forget that John Ball and his associates were murderous lunatics who were motivated almost entirely by hatred of people higher on the social pecking order than them.

    • @MichalShapiro1949
      @MichalShapiro1949 2 місяці тому

      Yes, that is true! There is little I can say to deny it, but only to unravel it a bit...the times were harsh, and the line between the haves and have-nots was often the difference between eating and not eating. The government was an absolute monarchy, the caste system was rigid, and how much actual justice was there to be had? The human hind brain is competitive, and for some the notion that one person would think they are "better" than another is intolerable. It's NO excuse for murder, but then again, strangling, drawing and quartering seems extreme in our time, no? To re-iterate, historically Mr. Ball and his followers were no angels! But the song is terrific and I give kudos to Mr. Carton for extracting the best part of Ball's message.

    Wonderful song! A lot of people in my area think it's a Christmas song, maybe because of "carol like a lark" and the Biblical references. It's a great song for any time but it's really a June song.

      Apesar da sonoridade tradicional, a primeira música - Corta o Pau - é original de Dona Rosa. Ela me escreveu sobre ela: “Seu ritmo se chama Coco de Roda. Essa composição tem influências diversas como polifonias vocais indígenas, rabeca (rabeca tradicional) tocada na tradição do cavalo-marinho (uma espécie de performance de rua) e a viola ( violão de 10 cordas) tocado na tradição nordestina. A segunda Canção - Piau - é sua adaptação de uma canção folclórica. Ela escreve: “Seu ritmo vem do nosso ritual afrobrasileiro chamado macumba”.
