privilege and a clash that brings many souls like god the devil and. played takes place for selling your wedding with all the wonderful people in stories that make the game so special. for all true fans. my. place because more than football online play. for me it's like yeah it's such a big thing music and with that so great with the fans from germany as. before you guys experience is amazing. playing 6.

times i feel so inspired here it's a foreign country and a foreign culture and the music is unfamiliar eyes but it's still inspiring and fun to delve into spa so i mean if you do so i'm told it's so different it's my whole musical world has been turned upside down. playing here in mumbai young musicians from india and germany have come together for a very special occasion to preparing for a joint concept of the beethoven festival in bomb. blasts. i think it feels great to have an exchange with the germans musicians film and percussionist.

austrian composer bellhop chimpy spouter is running a workshop in mumbai 5 young german musicians are here to get a feel for indian music they'll present what they learned at a special concert in barga i thought oh no i get it i didn't count the comma. key elements of indian music include rhythmic clapping and the vocal percussion arts known as corner chord it's a challenge to learn. discs of course it's a large scale project. we're trying to bring these cultures together in a concert format from others of course the workshop is part of the project but what comes out of it should be more than just a workshop presentation that's. previously known as bombay is a metropolis of $20000000.00 people on india's western coast

a city full of contrasts it's a large and demanding a financial hub and the epicenter of the bollywood industry. this is here because this man is a lot of rhythm here at 1st it seems just like white noise but it's so exciting this was soundscape with the traffic and the people the language is also interesting so far and. the german guests spend their 2nd day touring the city and exploring this mysterious unfamiliar word. but i'm so impressed by the diversity the different architectural styles the different smells and. there's something new at each turn of the physical don't know where to look 1st or where you're allowed to. go and it's quite overwhelming but in a positive way.

rich cause side by side. rundown neighborhoods next to not sure is high rises. above visit to a hindu temple it's their 1st encounter with india's religious music. because. as evening falls on wind with some fresh coconut milk. they're excited to meet their indian counterparts and amongst the top the musician and teacher you think of it also i think the exchange with suresh jean and his students will be an exciting and completely new experience has been small is that what i'm looking forward to the most is. that in the cultural exchange we will teach them something they'll teach us something i expected to be very inspiring. the next day the indian

professional song bill arrives 3 tabla players and 2 dances with indian dancers are considered musicians their instruments or their feet which they used to produce complex rhythms it's known as caster. just 6 stuffed say where up to $150.00 bells on each ankle. of. the indian tabla drums are like small cattle drums covered with gates. they produce a haunting sound. in. the indian musicians are well versed in the complex clapping unspoken cannot call rhythms. that. and the germans they seem to be picking it up quite well.

these are traditional indian songs that can help ship a spot that has a range from tabla cuttack don't sing and western percussion instruments. indian music involves the most of improvisation it doesn't really have written a change the melodies and rhythms upon stone from teachers to their students it's a rich tradition. it's media at top of the concerts like that and that's the thing . and the audience has their hands in the air because they're celebrating the music it's all in spanish you have it for les tarr in india it's. initially. you can really tell this is the music of the people who seek the light to. alongside the tablas and the cataract on thursday is a drum set from a river and

a set of chimes the question brings them all together. their ambitions aim is to create a productive dialogue between traditional indian and european music not such a mission impossible after all. both sides are curious about each other's music and instruments but. they're. like about to go back and look and speak and when you board 4 of them to do it has a different take me to like you just one. and then you get the 2nd one.

thank you like put in it like this and give the 2nd one don't mean you're in a very good looking out you know you put it under the yeah yeah and then you turned around. after the workshop they all enjoy a well earned meal music brought them together but they'll leave with so many more

impressions. tomorrow they're expecting a very special visit from the guru bound heart 1st match when he was 16 that he then went on to study with him for 3 years. on how we can get off from the army to the often not so many had his radiance around him and it was the 1st time i'd met a real master someone who doesn't just know how things should be but who also embodied it and the difficult and the central tradition behind it he always said. if you insist then you will be able to do this and do it this and this and this is what he saw me and it was like going through a big gate with the promise that there's a whole world waiting behind it that would enrich you. but that he then speed.

he seen 70 year old suresh tell by account the monster the guru you know she went down hearted leaving the show all of his message all result clapping and the question like which could of course all belong together. the pace is picking up the guru is a demanding teacher the indian musicians still have an advantage but the germans are catching up. but. aside from learning new rhythms they're also learning the philosophy behind this music. written. down to live music we put a beautiful. we're going to music. i deliberately comes from your heart. david

decided to. move the olive oil so they did the thickening also but the real i have been doing. it comes through a hard. one well one by. one. with the back of the sheet. i think it will be. rude with a. 100 polish like a spoken language and it's quickly becoming the musician's shared way of communicating.

when europeans really become immersed in these complex indian systems of sound and rhythm it's a question so rushed out why a crowd has been asking for years. before i thought this i was like a fake experiment could i a western musician who plays drums but not tabla learn the system up to speed this is and then bring my own musical traditions to the instrument off to put it in the agony that it's been called. suresh g. is really a pioneer of indian music you can use issues call him ocean of rhythm and in a way he's very traditional to talk about it he does traditional teaching he believes in the old guru shishya system of teachers and disciples that's been in india from malaria. keep to that but to teach and his disciple

now it's h.-a himself the perfect bridge between 2 cultures. that he thought. was. more. important shit. what would be with god is. your mo ma losing something but. it's a crash course for the german percussionist a lot of new information and background in a short space of time. but just one day with a rich g. has had a big impact on their playing. the german percussionist have come to this musical instrument shop to learn about the tabla the famous. engine drum with

a remarkable sound range i think yeah yeah that put it in for the think a high pitch that. this typical circular black eye on top is known as a shiny it's made from a dried hard paste a digital image the tone and pitch of the time. it's just stuff. that's going to get attention has to be adjusted precisely using the wooden sections between the body and the straps. sit down the next day 4 of the workshop and just the 2nd day with the guru but he's already won everyone over. the. fact. that. this is you.

although there aren't any written notes numbers and letters can help people learn there's plenty of space to improvise within certain strict rules. but guest has come to visit virtuous or flute player rakesh child us here he and downhearted composing a piece commissioned by george developed that these musicians were formed for the 1st time at the beethoven festival in vaughan. so for me it's really. because i've not done this before means in this for the 1st thing working with 3335 or 40 years of orchestra so it's a big thing for me and i'm open to do any kind of experiment. i mean music because

. music needs to be express day by day. they have to learn fast and they're all giving their best on the long stay of the workshop immediately and everything has to run smoothly the next time amy each will be imposed on in a few months shortly before the concert i. think. that that was about. the day i got out of going from there the current generally has a very rapid teaching pace it's really hard for us to keep up sometimes on. the challenge but once i was like it's a lot of fun and we've been learning so much because it will feel. the same. and in the end the indian musicians have learned not to see.

the food these are not new but i think the length of their culture and culture to blend that is it's going to be difficult and often be. difficult i don't think there was any of that anything difficult it was a small journey really had a great experience and i'm going to. be a photo for long. the next day it's farewell to mumbai. 5 months later on a late summer's day by the river rhine the indian musicians arrived in bonn a few days ago. in addition to their daily rehearsals they want to experience the country everyone has stayed in touch since the workshop in mumbai. i think. it's a very healthy mix of like

a family and we share this love of music regardless of which continent or from continents. and never i think we musicians meet friendships blossom straight away to get along since it's. been rehearsing for 5 days than how to interact cash has a name to have peace commission for the beethoven festival she's next. guest what is a beautiful composition they have that. i would say the highlight of that is the flute mr is to join us yeah it's kind of early was it out you know just because the puzzle piece is great it's so intriguing the way these 2 worlds melt together so perfectly. this month is has been a very special feast to all of us and it's the 1st time that we're performing at the beethoven festival so just curious excited and looking forward to.

the final rehearsal before their debut performance there are several other pieces written in mumbai that will be on the program tonight as well. as always there are some last minute changes. that i think everything goes one octave higher from 46 on the one octave higher. now they're also being accompanied by a symphony orchestra the german youth orchestra has been rehearsing she's met with the percussionist and rockers showed last year master of the bunch of the flute for a week. in the meantime banhart and the rhythm section perfect the school and the sound. system you guys have been doing a great job so far of it. on $360.00 we spent the 1st 3 days tuning the. the

orchestra is ok to to now i have to tune the composition a little composites on the same tune in both very effective contests on the cost of the space and the string section were a bit overstuffed i don't think you can play any quiet a doesn't make sense for you to play piano when everyone else is playing for 10 years we just need to thin you out a bit in fact the phone thing most look like it went to auckland and once again i cannot color becomes the common language to time each instrument and fiddle to. as opposed to it the r. and for any 16 i'm pleased to get on with that based on some many off the arms and off the islands. off to. go. it's a premiere in every sense of the word there's never been a bunch an indian bamboo flute you know symphony orchestra before.

you know nation and experimentation the 2 composers are in good company. for off and on for a class i it was clear from the start what would beethoven do you know maybe not indian music but he would certainly try something new. he would do something no one's ever done before something that interests him he would try to push the boundaries. so if he would have been here he would have loved that but hopefully. the indian music and the western classical has a very real blend to each other so that i think that's the innovation and in the music because i think it's not happened before at classical john are adding up and through symphony orchestra. has made its evening from the air in the bomb congress center will the young musicians be up to the challenge chance to just one week of rehearsals. has met means fate and fate is the most show of the 2018
