good example fer me is that 'concert for george' dvd that is out- bunch o' great old geezers from the 60s playin harrison music real good-the middle section is dedicated to george's love of Ravi Shankar' stuff-i dont think he plays on this but his Beautacious daughter-Anoushka-nora jones' sister plays her butt off. plus they do a classical indian piece called ARPAN and she leads this big indian band and is conducting this rhythm and it sure aint no 4/4. Eric clapton sits in and attempts to play w/in the beats of the song-and i guess its admirable-but that song is really beautiful... s on 2/2/06 7:40 PM, Kevin at kevin@TheNettles.com wrote: > At 04:40 PM 2/2/2006, "loop.pool" wrote: >> The Indians use these four subdivision:... > > In the trio that plays for clubs, our Indian tabla player sometimes > teaches the audience a keherva rhythm as: > THEY go, with US for DINner > >> In this way you can make a practise matrix of any time signature you >> want to take on and just sing the syllables... > > What's really wild is watching an Indian audience clap in 10/4. > >> One long band practise or two playing different time signatures against >> each other will usually do the trick to learn how to do this... > > Wow, I never thought of using Indian rhythms > _polyrhythmically_!
