other artists who are influenced by raphael it runs until august 30th. and that's it for me on the news team here in berlin remember you can keep up to date with all the latest news on our website that stood up you dot com and follow us on twitter and instagram tell 1st from the other team thanks for the latest. love. we're all set to. go beyond. that. we're all about the stories that. really. whatever it takes. to run the next page a little notebook alcohol g.w. made for minds.

to. play it's hard for me to understand whether the way we behave with nature changed from the top in time to our time but as a human brain i can say that we have been we've been destroying nature. from the census of the whole topic it's on the news every day. so there is a venice but nobody is bringing about action. and whole systems are based on always meeting. so much that really was almost they put out there what is.

this is a moment is the woman when they're done with their voices. i am convinced that musicians can have a very important impact on people they can influence people actually music inspired people in so many ways and musicians have been inspired by nature like beethoven who was inspired by nature. beethoven it's one of the great giants of music history in every sense. we know that the walks that he went on for hours and hours were the moments where he condensed his thoughts and his emotions

and the pastoral symphony i think reflects his greatest love which he is anxious. to have the opening this gentleman that he has gorgeous melody which is just strolling in the countryside everything's fine. it's very interesting the beethoven in the pastoral symphony he wrote quite a lot of text describing the scenes the scene at the stream the storm the birdsong and yet at the same time he didn't want to only just to be painting as he said he wanted to be feeling emotion. it's not just to replicate action of something that's

beautiful it goes inside his own soul. i do believe music has an enormous power and i think nature has an even greater power projects that bring those 2 together are a great great opportunity for mankind to rethink where we are who we are. a i. am. we've never been in a greater position to influence the future and that can only happen if all of us do something however small our large that is. but the one option we don't have

is to shut the door on to 2 to turn off the music that's not possible. i'm pretty good i'm a musician i'm an environmentalist and for the last few years i've dedicated my life for the sole purpose of creating environmental consciousness through my music i'm very much indian and i live in india. and everyone. agrees with you that it's impossible is a composition which i absolutely admire and something that i've known for a very long time wonderful surgeon david banana wonderful recording so let's get started as a how are you someone in the back of my mind for many many years it's always been

there try to you know make my own words you know fit i'll try to veer it in my own we. simply because this would be like pretty much the mother of all you know compositions when it comes to nature. as they do. yeah. 2 thank you we didn't. put up our so you thought i was a. was .

i am an indian i think through indian instruments i express myself through indian music so that's why when i had to express myself through beetle in space or lend my new i do not make of abortions of songs very often in fact it's extremely there but in this case it was very very natural for me to do it. yet. so we're moving the whole family

piano and we're just moving it from i got asked to the musical summer house we're going to be recording into one room. thank. you. thank. you to the. little my name is betty g. you can sing or i was born and raised and here. betty g. is actually my stationing my real name is will try to get on

a bit long i know i've always wanted to be an international artist so my mother called me beatty at home so i took j. from my last name in the game. i try to use music to create awareness of the nature of what's happening i use my fame whenever people see me doing something especially the youth because most of my listeners are they knew they would like to imitate what i do so i try to be involved model really. good. this is not it is. not to good this is. not. good. you.

went on all those of us not that it will play out from you know on the color we are not your pin you know a lot of that and there. was such a stance on this but i have a massage. and in fact i'm going far as you know moving for fun thing i think really caught on the end it's a movie stuck trying to discredit your former kookery dylan newman nose into the entire trip to the most a person no surprise come on those musicals kristoff come from a few it's going to be employed it's going to double. because of concern and. they're the ones who look at stop us on the commercial sound. you know because there are you know i mean every christmas and closer. to. me.

was. just so solid and the best you can do it does settle down. below. that. certain sound. but. the god. my church has always provided a cue throughout musical history with taken leave from the world around us.

when i'm spread 3 on the strand and i'm a composer of the all the play a conductor yeah musician. as a composer i do feel strongly linked to composers of the past. i'm incredibly inspired by walked something like beethoven achieved sort of drives me for sure and beethoven possibly more than to spell out any other composer of the past because his pieces have been models for me in more direct why is than many. beethoven is never just what you see and what you hear there's so much more behind him and i think the pastoral symphony in caps relates or for beethoven it's.

we have this 2nd movement here again very very gentle. and here you have the scene by the stream by the river and there you see the maastricht of beethoven how he's able to convey water the flows this feeling of to and fro that you have in the piece. i lived here in this area in the sunshine coast in noosa between $22004.00 it's just a very very special part of the world. in that atmosphere i did respond

by writing music in particular a piece for possible since nick. passed for symphonies maybe 20 years old i remember pretty early on i couldn't resist the kind of irony of the title but. it's a title that then i have to say captures the imagination because of its beethoven link i'm sure all and you know it's it's been programmed together with beethoven's

pastoral on more than one occasion. which is you know wonderful i like sharing the program with beethoven you know he's good. thank. you. composers feature birds and birdsong because it's this unbelievable world of invention beethoven's cuckoos in the slow movement of the pastoral symphony and not the newest of innovations at the time but obviously also. very telling you know it's also the placement where you put the boat cole so

that it has maximum the faith and you know history that one. 7 and the other birds are on spring from. far. from home this is a direct. direct feeling of all we can hear outside birds singing and happiness that's also installed into him. so we have few of the 3rd movement where we really get a insight into beethoven's humor he did a case of the jovial and fun people in the countryside.

this summer i feel them and they are really you know. i don't feel it's the sort of. hello we are. in iceland it's my name it's all one of mine i'm smiling still going to listen my name is always on my name is oscar and to be $88.00 still.

many people that we play for have been here already and they experience this and viola we have here that's beautiful to hear of somebody hears. something related to all or all countries in the. traditional rocks of the month or so that makes it that it worse it's also the people and i suppose that there's a kind of a feeling here where it's a kind of a big family but everybody helps each other and the 1st question is never how it is it financially going to work the 1st question issuer spit it burning for

doing this with. the yard. we tried to be extremely democratic on the spend everybody can stuff any song at any tie and and play however they want to play and in no way feeling that you have 4 individuals or all can shape will be to the same amount of effort.

to. can't food. food to. gain. access to sealing up literalism the new memoir who the most of them and or who almost anything better no better or going to nominate us room or them isn't going to. wear

and then there is another lesser purple money closer. to the in. there is to be more of the yes case in was him being allison and. i feel we have more so and was you know i look at this minute because it almost i was only endorsed by that day they are more than the fans us and i don't run into. the.

when i started off as a musician many years ago in 1909 when i was 19 years old i started of doing commercials for television and radio for various brands all over the world i was doing music for every brand and the computer so then i had a huge get your shift in around 2013 where i started realizing that these big brands have understood the power of music that music is such a powerful language not just for communicating

a message but for retaining that message deep into the consciousness of a list now. it was just a realisation that you know that what am i doing with music and why am i constantly selling products with music and there are things that i feel really strongly about in this ward and i need to write music about this. that. india is obviously a very complicated country we have a huge population and we have a huge number of problems when it comes to the n y meant starting with air pollution maybe getting the effects of climate change we've got deforestation we've got species extinction we've got the plastics problem so we've got a lot of problems in india. but i would say that the biggest issue in india is the part that everybody has that somebody else will make a difference so and that is a huge problem that we need to address. i would consider myself to be just

a musician who is trying to make everyone falling over the world basically. everything he's spent the 1st 3 movements building up this beauty this idea of nature of here we are suddenly broken and it's broken in such a dramatic way but it brings us away from the painting somehow beethoven puts in a time out it's not just beauty it's reality and the reality of danger and this interval that he writes in the 1st violins this. is chief g. flat it shows something's not quite right something's happening something brooding

. and i think. i can sense the climate change since my childhood the changes. is here. the countryside is affected with the fewer and fewer rainy season we have so there's drought and it's not just drought sometimes it's a flooding. it's scary really scary. it affects our daily lives you know 6 to be put on the table it affects the air we

breathe and affects the children that are going to be born. most of a new generation have breathing allergies. life is really tough life is very expensive people have to focus on earning their life. but we have to create awareness of the nature of what's happening. because right now we're heading towards the wrong direction if we don't change places. places. league. players. and the population is growing of course people need places to stay a shelter but then recession forget that nature is part of our shelter. in

the time that we lived here we saw quite a lot of change i mean a lot of places where we go walking one week and it was being cleared the next and in the early 2006 had a severe right of land clearance and it was sort of up there with the i'm a song as far as you know land clearance rights internationally what consumers. want. you know. so at that point something quite fundamental in the piece happens and i think for the 1st time we hear the sound of a tree being chopped down. 2

at the same time it was important for me city dweller that i have always been. to recognize there's no point also in sighing that everything that man creates he's by definition bad and only a natural world he's good. i certainly think that music and the arts also more generally can. actually build a bridge between humankind and the natural world.

poisonous took. place more and more so. let's put it on our system simple consent this this would that he thought the ordinary course was not that i live in a beauty you will see that getting the columbia you know kiran just explode the months yet nor the most wanted most on yours nor school john more than 10 think. it's to. then also we had no live that i mean made us live that one of those no that is my

thinking you list back i mean us if there's a song that i'm polemic beto pensacola by you're probably michael moore is the name only that at least will know you ok you know it all low in them. as they are into the entire news law somebody and police dispersed focus our top c.r.u. not going to put us on ice the whole were not mature horns but there must have been in korea could a 1000000 be under american silencers like. the but . the ng and yeah you go. it's been missing bloomberg. says in a different sort of the movie and beyond just hundreds. of the go around

in the tsunami. so. the e.u. . think. it's so terrifying that it is like a horror movie it really is a musical offering a counterpoint to what we feel when we experience a storm and we all know what it's like one is hoping the whole time will we survive but we get over the story. of the reason that i have left the future is pretty dark unless we do something about it i really think what we did to the earth is what we really have in our

heart so we have to purify our selfs clean our hearts and then we start cleaning and then we we get to see what we have done because i feel like nature is a reflection of ourselves what we're doing to go to the planet is what we're doing to ourselves we. few months ago we had this tree planting movement i was part of it because i miss the green area i miss green in my life and i wanted to create awareness i could. it was one full day that was dedicated to that it was a working it was a fun day i know but. it was working and. everybody was planting trees everywhere and i was. really happy to be part of our part of something green for

a change. it's all new for us but i mean this is something we have to it's like i said. the climate change is the affecting that red cell it's a must be that. belief . and. i believe that music can be the catalyst to move people in an emotional way from a van ness to action. i perform to large numbers of audiences like 20000 people 40000 people 100000 people. 6

has gone to the front of the mall the environment this is going to the concert about maybe children. along the journey of being humans we have forgotten that we are not the only species on this planet it is not until i took that up tomorrow should be one of the all told i try and empower each and every audience member to showcase to them that they themselves can make a huge difference within their own lives so that is what i do through music and then the 2nd thing that i do is through education of children. i created a project called my own songs know my own songs of songs for children because i believe that the songs that we learn during our childhood a song that we remember forever.

i believe that the education system is absolutely failing us right now because from the soul a absolutely believe that children are born with empathy children are born with kindness children are born with n.y. mental consciousness with what we teach children is basically easing that out of them and teaching them. to be more capitalist we're teaching them to be more materialistic with teaching them to be more consumerist so let's introduce ourselves i'm ricky and you can tell me what your name is let's go from here to there i mean is that. i believe that the education system needs to change we need

to create a new generation of children new generation of humans and other well more impact the kind of climate change the problem that is affecting all of us ok now the thing is that what you have to understand is that climate change is the fault of my generation but the problem is that you people are going to be suffering that we are trying to do our best to change everything we are trying to do our best to make things better. for you and for your future generations but you have to understand what climate change is i how it came about and more importantly children who believe that money is not the end all you know money is not the deciding factor as to how much you can consume and how much you can we just but it is actually how much the planet can afford.

we can always do better with waste and consumerism the place to live you can always do better. and it's great to see i mean all of our kids growing up in this environment where they have to talk about how we need this or want to it takes to make one teacher which you buy and then you maybe read it for a half to get and then you throw the with. the trend of the west and you know it's try to make them count.

whether music can then have a larger influence and create some kind of shift i don't know. but it is interesting how it can start conversations and i think that's where the arts can ply a significant role because it's kind of once removed from the toxic world of politics. that can ramp laughs. it would be good to see in. i think it was because i was not just ones who really that they have a look at it was good to see and pass. it on. it's also good. news when. i think if you go because you think the i meant there was going to be with you i

can just press on us so i can make think one is that the bus you don't as i can just goes on a school k. and inborn class and it's at the point you just. goes to the. post. goes to the sky was muslim they say only protest. because he and then on the n.t. as they mean nice that's using the him nice well different sort is that it was minus. 09. no but i'm being misery and the good. news. for the last times is you're in this case in this is you done. this.

all you have to do is just make it your lifestyle and do new things every day of create awareness all the time say something if someone is planting a tree but be part of it if there's anywhere any interview mention it so people can just hear it and from that they can start questioning because start saying we need to work on this we need to focus on this what should we do what can we do. it thanks. i've seen how music can. change people can incite dialogue i think dialogue is our only hope really for the future. there's something about the pastoral i think when at the end of last movement the storm clouds have disappeared and this beautiful melody comes and it's

a feeling everything's ok everything's going to be ok and i think we all. hope for things to be ok and so i think that also relates to us to go in. a way. i don't think it helps to just say we are bad. yeah we cause problems let's sort them out. we need to empower every single person like mahatma gandhi and he had the famous saying that you know be the change you want to see. if we keep on. living life the way we are living it's going to be the end that. there's no coming back. in one moment oh i k i keep inside north so when reasonable in. the sales see no need for toto.

then you can somehow see. we're all in this together and because we are together we we can survive. it's a moment. it's a moment going from the learner to the listener you have in the midst of the rich. and then you know everything's going to be fine and yet it's not enough a bit of because you could have just left but no he has to go through cycles yes to

show us everything again microcosmos and just when you think. i've understood it he finishes the piece. i meant. for filmmaking. in architecture foreign music. arts consume one thing above all else. she. has got to change. can art become climate friendly arts 21. and 30 minutes on d w. nor
