Subject:  RE: sfbay-looper/vortex chanting jam



I'm interested!  I'm on the penninsula, play(?) ztar
w/ midi looping & breath-controlled yamaha VL-1
diddling.  I'm waiting for an EDP to arrive to try
looping various Indian percussion insruments (ghatam,
mridangam, tabla, kanjira, dholak), among other
things.  I've also studied Sanskrit for 12 years, &
know something about the 'mantra chanting thing'.

Re: Ali Akbar school - I've never taken classes there,
but have heard only good things about it.  Also check
out India Currents
http://www.indiacurrents.com/200004/classlst.htm - it
looks like there is someone who teaches in fremont.
The printed copy might have more east-bay teachers.
Your best bet might for an east-bay hindustani music
teacher might be to post a query to
rec.music.indian.classical.
