What to Watch: Part 10: Pt. Ravi Shankar
The maestro's 101st birth anniversary
Today is the late great Pt. Ravi Shankar’s birthday.
Watch a few clips of his interviews on the American interview show - ‘The Dick Cavett Show’ and a talking-head interview interspersed with footage of rehearsals for the “Concert for George” - a memorial concert held at the Royal Albert Hall, London in 2002 on George Harrison’s first death anniversary (George was a semi-frequent collaborator and friend to Panditji).
I don’t have to recommend his music as indubitably you would have heard it - if not the YouTube algorithm will guide you.
