  • A clip from "Ravi Shankar - Tenth Decade in Concert," available on DVD from Ravi's own East Meets West Music (www.eastmeetswestmusic.com).
    * * *
    Cinematographer and director Alan Kozlowski presents an intimate look at a 91-year-old Ravi Shankar performing in southern California in October 2011. Kozlowski offers a uniquely personal perspective on Ravi Shankar. The filmmaker has studied music with Ravi since 1978, and has produced a documentary honoring Ravi called "Sangeet Ratna" and co-produced with George Harrison a collection of Ravi's work called "In Celebration." The love of subject is clear in the film, but it's Ravi's raw and powerful performance that leaves the most lasting impression. Though Ravi has curtailed his busy touring schedule, his playing continues to draw intense praise. Songlines magazine says that the master has lost "absolutely nothing in the way of musical virtuosity, technical brilliance and the kind of high-energy passion that belongs in concert performances." East Meets West Music is proud to release this important testament to a great artist simply unable to stop making transformative music.

      That is the best comment EVER! So true. In the 'Gita all the saints were warriors! Saw Ravi twice 1/ Monterey Pop and

    Every time I hear this divine type of music from India, I feel very connective to this transcendental music. It is expressing the archetype of sound unique in the universe. Yet it comes from ancient India, the home of major religions that have left their mark on the spiritual growth of mankind.

    Listening to Ravi Shankar over the decades has brought me endless joy. I was lucky enought to see the master twice - in 1967 at the Hollywood Bowl, and again in SF, maybe 2011. I feel like being at these two concerts represented a bookend of the deep appreciation I have for him and the music he created. He is among the highest of musicians in my personal pantheon of the greats.

    Back in the day he was friends with George Harrison from the Beatles. Ravi asked for help with the civil war. George quickly got together the first serious benefit concert... The Concert For Bangladesh 1971!. The last album Ravi did before passing "Chants from India" about 2000, George was the producer! George passed first 2001. Then most of them came back for "The Concert For George". Ravi's daughter Anoushka was the star. Beautiful concert. Giant picture of George's face there too.😢
