#zakirhussain #India #rakeshchaurasia - Hudba
In the beginning when Zakir Hussain says "It's a Chinese piece called Tuning", he is joking Efra, they're not playing anything Chinese. Zakir Hussain has a great sense of humor. They're playing a "Dhun" more akin to a folk tune very typical of Bansuri (flute), this is not any Raag either, it's a light, playful folk tune. Also, the time signature (taal) is a mix between Keherwa (8 beat cycle) and Dadra (6 beat cycle).
Thanx for explaining. Good job 💪❣🇮🇳
Obviously ❤️
I'm so proud of you brother! I loved that you are connected to your culture. Stay rooted always! 🇮🇳🇮🇳
Wah kya beautifully explain kiya h 🙌
Now that was informative..thanks .!!
Ustad Zakir Hussain ji was simply joking in the beginning when he said "First we'll play a Chinese piece .. it's called Tu Ning (aka tuning the tabla)" 😅
The piece they played was 100% Indian
I wish they read this and get to know 🙏🏻
😁
Ustad ji is funny guy
Please guys check out this.... you will really like it.....this is duet between Shankar Mahadevan and Rasika.... I bet you have never saw this before............ czcams.com/video/29yFmu_UcOM/video.html
😉👍
@Efra: Calling the ‘ba’ansuree’ a flute is absolutely fine.
Zakir Hussain is the senior artiste here; hence, the respect shown by Rakesh Chaurasia at the end of the performance should not surprise. The Indian Classical Music world is very hierarchical. And seniority is not taken lightly, even if merit has brought you more fame and fortune. Zakir has played with Rakesh’s father, Pandit Hari Prasad Chaurasia, for decades and is obliged to see the younger Chaurasia as a son figure. So, it is perfectly natural for Rakesh to stretch his reciprocity and touch Zakir’s feet.
Yup
Small correction - Pandit Hari Prasad Chaurasia is Rakeshji's uncle and not father
@@soumimaiti4329 Thank you so much. I stand corrected. 🙏

There are many seniors in musical industry than Zakir Hussain. Some retired, some are unknown and don't want to be known.
Why flute is so important in India because of God "Krishna" he is depicted always with flute.
He is the supreme lord.
It's Bansuri, flute is different.
Krishna with flute ❤️
Mujhe laga bhansuri ko hi English main flute kehte hai
@@crazzybuzz4658 usi ko kehte h!
@@COZMOZIAN bhai sarcasm tha
It's actually a Indian Folk Tune. It has elements of Classical Music. In fact Indian Classical Music is based on Folk Music.
Fork music is Tradition Classical Music Art
Folk music don't rules where as Classical music have fixed boundaries
@@rajwizkid001 It is like language and grammar. I like both and know neither.
@amanjha0211ok can youqoute where specifically All the Ragas are mentioned in Samaveda.
Don't make loose claims about a rich craft which beautiful humans which inhabited this Indian subcontinent into a God made thing.
There are 4 stages of any classical music performance.
Stage 1: Aalap(means aquaintance/introduction) where there is no beat, just get introduced to the raga/tune.
Stage2: Jord. Where the beats/rhythm comes in.
Stage 3: Jhaala where the rhythm gets faster and more challenging.
Stage4: Gat. Where there are dialogues between the instruments. Conversation between them, challenging each other and end with a blast.
Just a quick in. He was making a joke on chinese piece called "tuning" he was just basically tuning his tabla.
ohh😅 thanks for the info!
Bansuri is my favourite instrument in the whole world. It makes me feel like I'm floating in air...
I don't think I have words to explain Indian classical music because it's so rooted with nature and so spiritual. It blows me away every time.

Hariprasad Chaurasia is father of Rahul and is a great masero of bansuri. He and Zahir Hussain performed together for many years. No wonder at the end of performance Rahul pays respect to zakir by touching his feet . ..
Subtle but strong cultural indications.
Not the father - uncle
His name is rakesh not rahul

Bansuri is an Indian Bamboo flute. So it is a flute but very melodious.
Lord krishna Used to play flute 6 thousand years ago
I meditate to classical music... watching you guys enjoying our music makes me happy...Waleska you are a cutie pie... 😍
i sleep listening 2 flute and Tibetan singing bowls...they r so relaxing
@@nehamehra1497 I can relate...
Most of brat Indian young like me take classical music for granted as right from when I was a kid I heard alot of these type of songs in TV and I was like okay.. it's just common everybody in India does it , no suprises, so I never really appreciated the art of classical music. But as I see how people from other countries get shocked by the complexity it brings and how difficult it is for them, now I appreciate it from a first time listener pov.
Yes that's true
Exactly
That's the primary reason i watch such video cause we are like the fish who has stopped appreciating the water.
You mean you had to watch two idiots to react to something before appreaciating it? That explains what levwl of coding one should expect out of you
Very true...I am kind of also ashamed that I didn't realize it earlier...
As an indian i never heard this before 😍😍🇮🇳🇮🇳 i literally started exploring my own country music,😅😅😊😊
Completely relatable
What ???? 🤷
I don't believe this
@@ProudIndian-m6i means i heard this but never try to explore it in utube aur Google
@@athaingh95 you said you never heard this before
@@ProudIndian-m6i yes i never heard this before separately without song
Actual Indian classical music is a trip from your house to the universe or different realm.
I have seen these two live in Cape Town on two occasions and they are simply amazing. Rakesh's uncle, Hariprasad Chaurisia was the king of the Bansuri Flute.
Bansuri(flute) usually represents morning or start of the day(happy and poetic breeze), very rarely early evening (we called it as memory lane evening, english doesn't have a word for it)
This piece is depicting a morning environment n day-to-day life going around at that time
I think you mistook Zakir Hussain's comedic sequitur literally :). He was joking about the Chinese piece "the small hammer" as tuning a.k.a Tu Ning, which sounds like a Chinese name. The musical piece is NOT Chinese!!
When I listened to this composition for the first time I felt the flute is singing a song. The every note played is so detailed. I was completely overwhelmed by this particular piece. :)
Zakir Hussain (the tabla player) in the beginning said "Here's a Chinese piece called tuning!"... it was a joke. There was no Chinese piece in the whole performance.
If you guys liked this, you will love 'Albela Sajan' by Mahesh Kale & Taufiq Qureshi. Same concept, with a singer thrown in. Magic.
Beautiful rendering. Flute (Baansuri) is one of the oldest instruments discovered by mankind and directly connects the soul to nature as it is one of the most natural sounds made by wind passing through bamboo and it Conveys all emotions perfectly. Tabla and flute are made for each other in Indian music
check out "voice of the moon" by Anushka Shankar(Sitarist). play the first video that comes which is performed in france ,plsssss
yes pls
Yessss
These instruments require years of training and learning. Not everyone can use them with such high accuracy and brilliance. Indian classic music is proved to be the most soothing, senses refreshing, mind relaxing having medical benefits as well.
Indian classical music is supposed to lift u spiritually hence the ragas. Our ancestors realised certain combination of notes lift can make a spiritual connection at certain time of the day or season or mood. So u have a set of different notes which is given a name (name of raga). U have different ragas for emotions like love, remorse, anger, sadness, celebration, courage etc . There are certain ragas for dawn, morning,afternoon, evening n midnight. The morning raga gives a fresh happy feel on hearing it...the night ragas make u calm n sleepy. Etc. You have ragas for seasons. If u hear those ragas they awaken the corresponding feeling. For eg. Megh malhar is raga of monsoon or rain. A story goes that once Tansen the courtesan singer of Emperor Akbar had developed severe heat in the body due to which he was very ill. No medicines worked. Finally his daughter a music maestro herself sang Megh Malhar to him to cool his body.
Such is the spiritual effect on mind n body of ragas sung by classical maestros.
Pursuing Indian classical music is inheriting not only a craft but also the culture, which beliefs in sadhana(learning & seeking). and the Indian value system, which teaches humility and respect for others.
I have had the privilege to attend couple of concerts featuring the Master of Tabla, Ustadji. They were completely different settings, one a Tabla solo concert, the other as part of his fusion band Remember Shakti.
His persona on stage, the mastery of the craft, and his charisma is just off the charts.
Guys u understand music and hence ur analysis is superb. Indian soothing insteuments give peace and solace to people who are under constant pressure in their field of work. Stress level comes down drastically
Pandit. Chaurasia (rest in peace, and the father of Rakesh Chaurasia) is a legendary flutist and is a guru in this genre. If you have the chance, be sure to check out his works. It's probably no surprise that his son has followed in his footstep. ...
Love the fact that you guys are so articulate and bring technical aspects of music along with an ability to discuss concepts and philosophies......bravo to you and hearing you is fun.
You must react to Krishna's enchanting flute. you'll love it.
It is about a young boy Krishna (God) who plays the flute and the whole village gets mesmerized by the sound of that flute.
In this, Legendary Rakesh Chaurasia sir has played the flute.
In an interview he said that it is an honor for him to be the sound of Lord Krishna's flute and added that it is not even a pinch of the sweet sound that Lord Krishna used to produce with his flute.
INDIAN FLUTE IS MORE THAN 6000 YEARS OLD & ASSOCIATED WITH LORD KRISHNA... IT IS BEAUTIFUL SOME PIECES PLAYED ON FLUTE WILL BLOW UR MINDS ❤️🎉🎉🎉🇮🇳
THEY ARE SPIRITUAL TOOLS ACTUALLY THE INDIAN CLASSICAL MUSIC IS RELATED TO VEDA & MUSIC.
Flute come from Lord Krishna Himself ..Indian Flute , Bansuri has came from Lord of the universe Himself
Tabla you all know the backbone of Indian classical music
Honestly. I have grown up listening to classical music. Got so use to this that could never really listen to it the way you guys do. I had taken this rich art so much for granted but I really thank you guys for really making me learn how to really experience such beautiful art form by tuning in listening wise. Now I have learned to appreciate this. So thankyou so much.
Much respect to you guys. The way you are getting the brilliancy and intricacy of the music is very impressive!
Waleska & Efra, I really loved your comments on this piece. Like any other country India also has rich folk music. You can explore more. There are so many indigenous musical instruments all over India that it might take while to cover most of them.
Thank you and keep going.
Thank you! I requested this! I am sure others have too.
This is the true magic of Indian classical music🙏 hope you to react on more of such Jugalbandis
Thank you for the reaction! That was such an experience!
Zakir sarcastically said he is going to play a Chinese piece called tuning. Implying Chinese music sounds like tuning.😂
Indian classical music is like meditation to us !!
It pierces your soul !!
Loved Waleska's facial expressions in this reaction. The bhansuri always goes straight to the heart.
Indian flute is called "bansuri". Even lord krishna has a bansuri that mesmerised people when heard by. It's part and parcel of most of indian traditional music culture.
This composition is initially set in Dadra (6 beats). So the Western idea of "time signature" doesn't really apply here. The taala - the number of beats in the cycle - is more important. So It's 6 beats set in a 3-3 rhythm, and then the ending becomes an 8 beat cycle AKA what you'd traditionally call a double time 4/4.
This Bansuri(flute) has a special place in a typical Indian person's mind. Because of how it invokes feelings of nature and it's the instrument that was played by Lord Krishna, one of India's most beloved gods.
This is such a frolicking tune so gracefully played by this great duo. Indian classical music is a gold and diamond mine and and there are plenty more of gems to explore.😀😀
these two instrument have worked together for several thousands of years...along with Sitar and many others indian native classical instruments...the west is only discovering now thanks to you guys. Flute is as old as Lord krishna since it was he is favorite instrument.
Been recomending this for months ,finally😅❤❤
This sound of basuri is Devin!!!
Play to human and even animals... The harmony will connect you magically to your inner soul and the high power!!!
both are most popular legend son and himself also legends in india
I really like your reactions. You must react to any of the following songs, you will really feel amazed.
1. Aao balma by A.R Rahman of coke studio.
2. Noor E Khuda from movie My Name is Khan.
3. Ladki by Sachin Jigar, of coke studio.
4. Garaj Garaj Jugalbandi from Bandish Bandits series.
5. Taj Mahal Tea presents E-baithak by Madhuri Dixit and Niladri Kumar
6. O rangrez from movie Bhaag Milkha Bhaag.
Guys u should definitely react to Zakir Hussain & Rahul Sharma Santoor video..Santoor is also another instrument u should definitely look..
🔥
Please listen to this master piece.
Yes please
Also check out zakir husain's tabla with Shivkumar sharma's santoor sadly pandit Shivkumar sharma passed away last week it would be a great tribute to him.
Spot on with exploring where scales can take you with instruments. The beauty of Indian music is, it is an exploration of voice as the instrument. Human voice comes close, but in that battle, instruments (for example, the Bansuri Flute here) would always win. A musician’s voice can come close but can’t surpass the instrument’s agility and dexterity, besides the range it can cover.
You are most welcome in India as both of you wish to be witnessed Classical music functions, festivals etc. It will really open up the door of another world of Music in front of you which are largely unknown to the wests common music lover people. Indian classical musics are for heart soul not for mind only. It can heal up even illness.
We are so glad for this reaction video
Quality content finally after so many days
Proud to be an Indian ☺️
I wanted you to react on this one from so long finally you did thank you 💞🥰
All Indian musical instruments as u said it can replicate natures sound … flute reminds of you , close your eyes and imagine yourself in green forest , flute will take you to the forest with calmness and butterflies flying around and a stream flowing … it’s the most closest that I found to a forest or an open field with wind blowing
This flute is called "Bansuri" in india.
It's super cool 😊🤘. The time is happy and calming.
We’ll guys you could look at some of the prominent Indian Classical based musicians in UK -
- Roopa Panesar - Sitar
- Pete Lockett - Tabla, Kanjira, Dholak, Mridungam, Pakhawaj….etc.
- Sanju Sahai - Tabla… a work class Tabla Maestro who also teaches at SOAS London University
- Talvin Singh - Tabla Maestro
- Ken Zuckerman - Sarod… he, I guess is based out of Switzerland
- Anushka Shankar - Sitar… daughter of legendary Sitar Maestro Pandit Ravi Shankar and sister of famous Jazz singer Norah Jones……and much more
Again what an great observation by you guys .. everything what you all said ...its like you said it my thoughts ....i am no way saying i am a great observer or musically expert or anything of sort though ..i am saying if i were had to react , i would be reacting and spoken many things the same as you two were ...
🎉 Cheers guys🎉❤
Yo waiting for tomorrow's feature Friday podcast
Good exploring review guys & trying to add in thoughts n history Etc
Flute made of bamboo is called "Baansoori" in Hindi.
It just sounds so DIVINE and WHOLESOME and ETHEREAL😍😍
I recommend you to listen to the legendary 'shakti band'. Every member is an legend. Dr. Zakir Hussain is a part of the band too. The group leader is a legendary bassist. Shankar mahadevan(singer of brethless) also linked to them and collaborated many times.
Such positive vibes....such moodbooster💚🌱
Krishna's Flute ❤️😌
You are very near to finally taste the real treat from Indian classical
Finally! This music hits you different.
you are listening to 2 great Legendary Master giants in Indian music, they are incomparable
Waiting for Anushka shaker's (sitar player) VOICE of the MOON she is daughter of Ravi Shankar 😍
Zakir was part of the world music festivals for many decades, playing at multiple world venues, and has led many world music bands like Tabla Beat Science, Planet Drum, etc.
It is a variant of folk tune 'pahadi dhun' (literally 'mountain tune') with a lot of improvisation by both the genius musicians.
Deepak is nephew of legend Hari prasad chauarsia ... his performance qith zakir khan was awsome too
This piece was from a show Zakir Hossain did in karakow poland. If you will keep tab you can catch him live in londan as well
U guys have to watch " darbar " sessions featuring indian master's of instruments ,magical and masterful pieces
The flute is called "bansoori"

Flute is shown to us since lord Krishna who used to play flute...it is said that when he used to play flute near the cows,, the cows used to start releasing milk. So flute as an instrument is in India since over 1500 BC. Goddess Saraswati is shown with Instrument Veena. LORD SHIVA with Damru.
Hey, I would suggest you to take a short meeting with someone who knows Indian clasical music, they will help you to understand the Indian music from the roots and how Bollywood got introduced from it.
This piece they played was completely an Indian piece. He was "Tuning" the Tabla so he jokingly said it was a Chinese piece because "Tu Ning" 💀😂
The Music is originated from India thiusands years ago... Lord Shiva is the Father of Music and Dance💃 respectively..... Indian Civization is the OLDEST ONE.....
NO ONE CAN MATCH INDIAN CLASSICAL MUSIC THAT IS THE BASE OF ALL MUSIC IN THE WORLD....
Bansuri is so soothing instrument
INDIA 🇮🇳IS THE OLDEST CIVILIZATION AND THE LAND FROM WHERE MUSIC IS BORN AND FLOURISHED, NURTURED.... AND THE SPREAD OVER THE WORLD.... RECITING, SINGING AND DANCING💃
What you're seeing is years and lakhs of hours of devotion to the art. Both these persons are maestros in their field. Also, what they are doing is 100% on the spot improvisation, no practice. They are called Ustad (highest title awarded to the masters). Touching the feet is regarded as form of respect for the elders in Indian culture
There is no 'piece' in classical music, every time they play it, its unique. The musicians don't really practise together when before their performance.
