4:16 am
her. it. is hard for me to understand whether the way we behave with nature taste from the top and time to are tired but as a human race i can say that we have been we've been destroying nature. by what sensors are very hot 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 needing. so much that he lists loss almost all they put out or it is.
4:17 am
there's a moment is the moment when you're born with the 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 happy needs fired by nature like their top 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
4:18 am
and the past role symphony i think reflects his greatest love which is thank. you have the openings gentle melody it's 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 of the stream the storm the birdsong and yet at the same time he didn't want it only just to be painting as he said he wanted to be feeling emotion. it's not just
4:19 am
a replication of something that's beautiful it goes inside his own soul. and. 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 where we are. 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
4:20 am
is to shut the door to 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 of 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 so today we're going to have a wonderful recording so let's let's get started as a how are you someone in the back of my mind for many many years it's always been
4:21 am
4:22 am
so i'm an indian i think through indian instruments i express myself through indian music so that's why i had to express myself through beatle and spencer len mind you 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 2.
4:23 am
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 a corking in tomorrow. we'll move our home. go. ahead of the. little my name is betty jean you can sing or i was born and raised and with you. betty g.'s actually my stage name my real name is will tell you tell
4:24 am
a bit long i know i've always wanted to be an international artist so my mother called me baby at home so i took gene from my last name in the game. i tried 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 the youth they would like to imitate what i do so i try to be an role model very. good this is not the way. to do did not. even.
4:25 am
when all those of us authors will find out when we can go on that although we are not good in you know a lot of that there. was such wisconsin as part of adam and soc. and in fact i'm going down as you know moving for tongue i think they are because i'm damned if they me this stuff from movies called you out on the cookery belong on windows and to go on to do the most impressive no surprise come on those most yukos kissed on compliment your screen and i'm going to take on the double. because of concern about. their own solo kostopoulos on the congress and so on. you know concern you know i mean 3 risk missing person. cutting. the poll.
4:26 am
4:27 am
my name's bret 3 i'm a stranger and i'm a composer of the older play a conductor yeah musician. as a composer i do feel strongly linked to composers of the past. i'm incredibly inspired by what something like beethoven achieved it 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 wives and many. straight open is never just what you see and what you hear there's so much more behind him and i think the pastoral symphony encapsulates or for beethoven it's.
4:28 am
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 that 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
4:29 am
by writing music in particular pays for possible since nick. passed for some from his movie 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 it's beethoven link i'm sure and you know it's it's been programmed together with beethoven's
4:30 am
pastoral on more than one occasion. which was you know wonderful i like sharing program with beethoven you know he's good. thank. you. composers feature birds and bird song because it's this unbelievable world of invention beethoven's cuckoos in the slow moment 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 way that you put the boat cold so
4:31 am
that it has maximum the face and you know it's leaning in that 1 7. and the other birds are entering from home. this is a direct. the direct feeling of all we can hear outside birds singing and happiness that's also installment into camps. so we have few of the 3rd movement where we really get out an insight into beethoven's humor he did a case of the jovial and fun people in the countryside and.
4:32 am
4:33 am
many people that we play for have been here already and they've speirs this environment we have here that's beautiful to hear if somebody hears. something related to waller. in all of us in. the great tradition already the rocks of the month of the lakes and that ever since also the people and i feel that there's a kind of a feeling here but it's a kind of a big family but everybody helps each other and the 1st question is never how it is it financially were the 1st question if you're spit it burning for
4:34 am
4:35 am
4:36 am
4:37 am
when i started off as a musician many years ago in 1909 when i was 19 years old i started off doing commercials for television and radio for various brands all over the world i was doing music for every brand and the competent or 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
4:38 am
a message but for retaining that message deep into the consciousness of the listener it was just a realisation that you know that what am i doing with music 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. 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 the air pollution mitigating 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.
4:39 am
everything he spent the 1st 3 movements building up this beauty this idea of nature of here we are is suddenly broken and it's broken in such dramatic way that 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 here in the 1st violins this. is chief g. flat. shows something's not quite right something's happening something brooding.
4:40 am
we were. living in. egypt. i can sense the climate change since my childhood the changes. is here. the countryside is affected with the fewer and fewer rainy season house so there's drought and it's not just drought sometimes it's a flooding. it's scary it's really scary. it affects our daily life effects the soup we put on the table it affects the air
4:41 am
we breathe and affects the children that are going to be born. most of the new generations have breathing allergy. 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. planes. and the population is growing of course people needs a place to stay a shelter but then we shouldn't forget that nature is part of our shelter.
4:42 am
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 before land clearance and when it was sort of up there would be amazon as far as you know land clearance rights internationally were concerns. so at that point something quite fundamental in the peace happens and i think for the 1st time we feel the sound of a cream being chopped down. 2
4:43 am
at the same time it was important for me city dweller that i have always being. to recognize there's no point also in sighing that everything that man creates is by definition bad and that only a natural world is good. i certainly think that music and the arts also more generally can. actually build a bridge between humankind and the natural world.
4:44 am
looks like. a song plays more yet more so. less personal no system simple can simplify this route that authority 'd ordinary records will not be your viewers who are not getting the columbia nor clear and. exploit the months. nor the sword was on yours nor school. more than a hint that. you . think also we have no live that i mean meet us live that goes well that is not
4:45 am
including you list back i mean us if there's a. better guy you're probably michael moore as they nail you at least you know you're ok there you. go in them. a syrian to their entire lives lost somebody and the least this was in my book was our top c.i. you know you're going to put us on as a hole in his mature holiness but local buspar there must get an inker going to be and they're going to have insolence or strong. yaquis in colombia has been missing for a moment going to see not the different sort of them the young band is the us and
4:46 am
we just kind of. as an upper limit the gum going on there in that you know maybe song move to a little. differently as history taught us. yeah . yeah yeah yeah s. . a a a a a a 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 still. us.
4:47 am
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 stuff clean our heart and then we start singing and then we think we get to see what we have done. because i feel like nature is a reflection of ourselves what we're doing to the to the planet is what we're doing to ourselves we. knew. few months ago we had this tree planting movement i was part of it because i missed the green area i missed green in my life and i wanted to create awareness i could. do. it was one full day that was dedicated about it was a working day was
4:48 am
a sunday and nobody was working and. everybody was planting trees everywhere and i was. really happy to be part of a small part of something green for a change. but . it's all new for us but i mean this is something we have to get through like i said. the climate changes we affecting us directly so it's a must be done. to lose the loony league. and. i believe that music can be the catalyst to move people in an emotional be from
4:49 am
a very nice direction. i perform to large numbers of audiences like 20000 people 40000 people 800000 people including. it's called the living longer the more the enlightenment this long look in the forms that about mean children. along the journey of being humans we have forgotten that the odd not the only species on this planet. is a little back up to the old the still be one of them. 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 mild songs of songs for children because i believe that the songs that we learn during a childhood
4:50 am
a song that we remember forever. i believe that the education system is absolutely feeling us right now because from the soul i absolutely believe that children are born with empathy children are born with kindness children are born with and why mental consciousness with what we teach children is basically it isn't that out of them and you're teaching them. to be more capitalist be a teaching them to be more materialistic we're getting them to be more consumerist
4:51 am
so let's introduce ourselves i'm ricky and you can tell me what your name is let's go from here to the money. and. 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. 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 one for your future generations but you have to understand what climate change is and 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 but it is actually how much the planet can afford.
4:52 am
we can always do better with waste and. wasteful living we can always do better. and it's great to see i mean our own 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 half a year and then you throw the what. we're trying to waste and you don't try to make them count.
4:53 am
whether music can have a logic influence and create some kind of shift i don't. but it is interesting how it can start conversations and i. 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. long as you can downplay. it would be good to see in the sun i think it was because i was not just one time only that their school had games look at it was good to see and pass. the lounge.
4:54 am
as it did you can see it in the i meant there was going to be with you i can just press on us so cornet think one of the took a bus you know as a person on the school k. is there and inborn class and is it the chess. board. goes the style is muslim. protests and the like and that is in the on the n.t. last name a nice that goes in the hymn nice little bit and so it is that it has a minus. the cows know that it can be a misery and the good. of the we have no. particular stance is you in this case and this is you don't just.
4:55 am
only have to do is just make it your lifestyle and do new things every day and create awareness all the time say something if someone is planting a tree but be part of it 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 walk a week or. next 6. or seen how music can. change people it can incite dialogue and i think dialogue is our only hope really for the future.
4:56 am
there's something about the pastoral i think when at the end of the 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 today i am a long and. i don't think it helps to just say we are bad yeah sure we cause problems let's sort them out thank. you to empower every single person like mahatma gandhi he had to. 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's it there's no coming back. in one moment oh i k.
4:57 am
i keep inside north so when the knees were in. southeast through the sales you know a need for thought oh and then you can some of us and. we're all in this together and because we're together we can survive. it's a moment. it's a moment when they learn how to listen i live in the midst of that it's.
4:58 am
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. it's much weather here on the racetrack it's a. perfect place to test those high powered vehicles. flashing. but is it somehow a bit behind the times electra mobility in sports cars of coal stock it's a nervous question. read. to d.w. . in good shape takes my weight for us in forests of fields and that
