[From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia]
Ravi Shankar, (Bengali: রবি শংকর, IPA: [ˈrɔbi ˈʃɔŋkɔr]; 7 April 1920 -- 11 December 2012), his name often preceded by the title Pandit, was an Indian musician who was one of the best-known exponents of the sitar in the second half of the 20th century as well as a composer of Hindustani classical music.
Shankar was born in Varanasi and spent his youth touring Europe and India with the dance group of his brother Uday Shankar. He gave up dancing in 1938 to study sitar playing under court musician Allauddin Khan. After finishing his studies in 1944, Shankar worked as a composer, creating the music for the Apu Trilogy by Satyajit Ray, and was music director of All India Radio, New Delhi, from 1949 to 1956.
In 1956, he began to tour Europe and the Americas playing Indian classical music and increased its popularity there in the 1960s through teaching, performance, and his association with violinist Yehudi Menuhin and George Harrison of the Beatles. Shankar engaged Western music by writing concerti for sitar and orchestra and toured the world in the 1970s and 1980s. From 1986 to 1992 he served as a nominated member of Rajya Sabha, the upper chamber of the Parliament of India. In 1999, Shankar was awarded India's highest civilian honour, the Bharat Ratna. He continued to perform up until the end of his life.

I was there in 1969 and this performance was the peak of the whole festival for me. I was sitting with about 30 people underneath a very large piece of construction plastic, which had trapped a very thick cloud of MJ smoke under it, and the rain poured down on our plastic layer of shelter while Ravi Shankar sat under a small shelter on the stage and played his heart and soul out to us. All the other musicians there acted as if they thought they themselves were gods, but Ravi acted like it was a great honor for him to play for us and like he was just an humble instrument bringing down sacred music from the sky.
I think I was under that thing with you or another one right by you but I remember being under some heavy duty plastic up front during this and puffing & passing
I wish to travel with a time machine just to witness all of this, the epitome of reloveution
So jealous...:-)
@00 00 it's better to be younger than older...i was 20 in 1969, now i'm 70...wish i were 20 again ( knowing what i know now) lol.
@00 00 Amen!!
I was really down today, a thief broke into my flat and stole my guitar a Gibson SG but Ravi and his band mates lifted me up. Thanks fellas.
What's the update on that Gibson?
@@junglejuice9242 gone but not forgotten
I have pneumonia and this is the only thing I have watched that pulled me upright, had my body vibrating and made me feel alive again. Truly badass.
You are badd ass....
Sending you so much love, my friend. Keep listening....
I love you
evrybody is only talking about ravi shankar, in deed a great musician, but he played together with tablaplayer Alla Rakha and on tambura Maya Kulkarni, who are great congenial musicians to ! thanx
Omgsh yes!!!!!!! The tabla and tambura artists have to be the best that ever on this earth!!! I love them!!!!!!!
I didn't realise just how amazingly varied woodstock was.
this is an indian instrument called sitar and the other one is tabla which were there thousand of years ago....even before americans or britishers knew about music.
@@savagehuman6020 awesome that those festivals create space where old traditions can meet modern ears and art
@@savagehuman6020 the sitar originates from the late Mughal era, it isn't thousands of years old. It is built in the tradition of the veena, which is much older.
THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER. SALUTE!
vrinda sarkar his daughter maybe?
These two, a symbiosis in music, mastery of their skills, knowing each others every intent. Rare to see in any performance, but clear in this one and many others.
What a legend
Thank God I saw him at least twice? First with George Harrison & Billy Preston at the Forum near L.A. & I recorded him at U.C.L.A.'s Royce Hall except that I got busted taping in the first set; but I somehow managed to get my equipment back in later to record the second set! I can't remember if I saw him again but I might have since I saw so many shows of all sorts and I most certainly saw him on Tv. at least a few times! Although I was only 10 years old in 1969 and had just moved or was in the process of moving to Oregon at this time from California for my Father to go to graduate school at O.S.U.; however I was definitely into going to concerts, since we all went to see Rare Earth this year or the next which was my first concert and soon I went to Steven Stills by myself before we moved back to Redondo Beach where I went to as many, many concerts as I could. Including most all of the acts the acts at Woodstock and I'm not exaggerating eventually (meaning some not for a long time later) including the Airplane but not Jimi (almost) or Janis!
Augy,
San Diego
yguaray You're lucky... Such a shame I never got to see his live performances..
Could you share your tape recordings on youtube? They must be musical treasures!
I only saw once in Athens, Greece, in 2002. He was too old but Anousha was there too.
A true moment in rock history captured in all its glory blazing and heartfelt now cyrstlized in our hearts forevermore RIP Ravi
Yeah, ig you could call it Indian classical rock.
some people are born to reach the top of an area...he was the one😄...i have no vocabulary for this man.
*SO* beautiful.
Love that it's such a happy conversation.. Every retort is followed with eye to eye connection and a sincere smile. Peace master.
Just love the citar!!! That type of music really fit the 60s counterculture!!!
Freaking awesome man!!!
I GROK with all universe when I listen to this album.
This is beautiful I'm feeling so good after watching this

Made for each other.. what a duo...
It’s amazing how much music can be made from two drums (sorry I don’t know the actual name) and a sitar
Tabla
swati singh thank you! It’s an amazing instrument by the way
It’s Tabla
Tabla
I am so thankful that these recordings exist, thank you!
Breathtaking
What makes Ravi this good is his Table player
En el glorioso festival de Woodstock estuvieron dos grandes: Ravi Shankar y Jimi Hendrix.
I was bumping into this because I spend part of Christmas Eve reading T.C. Boyles "Drop City" novel in which this group is mentioned - and hey, really, Woodstock was tremendously varied ...
One of the greatest guitarists of all time
Sitar
Have you ever seen a guitar?
I like his music.
Excellent 💿6 8 2019 👌18.19 🌴🕺🍀👱🏻♂️🌴😎🌴🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👱🏻♂️
What an incredible performance
great artist
Amazing
the sitarand bongos!!

*tabla
was going to say the same :D
Tabla not bongo , drongo .
Tabla guy was equally genius to Ravi Shankar or maybe better.
Indeed. Ustad Allah Rakha! His son, Zakir Hussain, is widely considered the best tabla player alive right now.
@The Conscious Indian Amazing dynasty!

Julie Hattory dude that’s crazy I did not know that I love both
I was just thinking that the tabla player is playing like he knows exactly what Ravi Shankars next phrase is and yet it most likely improvised.....
Ca me Ravi(t) !

A.R.M.O.N.Ï.A. con mi S.E.R. ..
Ironic that classical music of India is considered hippie music in the West.

Ravi Shankar is & was, the bigest musician of Raga in the World and in all the times . But he's a really sun of a bitch with the his daughter borned in New York, from a casual relation, in that age .Because this ridiculous detail ,he did not recognize her, as your, cause she was not fruit of a marriege. incridible no?
Dude. You need to restructure your sentence.
I dont know what you mean.
I have a vague idea.
Anoushka is a bastard child is that what youre saying?
And he never loved her so much for that? lol im like wat
StumblinIsNotFallin Thanks man. I know english isnt his first language but damn dude. 5 months later I hope hes better.
slatan420 oh and in how many languages are you fluent?
Yeah. He is talking about Nora Jones, Ravi's other daughter whom he refused to accept for some time..anyways later they sorted it out amongst themselves
What the hell is this mess?
What is this? It's Ravi Shankar at Woodstock 1969. Never heard of Woodstock before?
It’s called your ego
What an absolute raquette.
You sound like a clueless child
