george harrison - introduction lyrics
george harrison:
thank you, thank you, thank you. i’d just like to say before we start off with the concert, that, uh, to thank you all for coming here, and, uh, as you all know, it’s a special benefit concert. we’ve got a good show lined up. i hope so, anyway. first part of the concert is gonna be an indian music section. you’re gonna hear a sitar and sarood duet. and, uh, as you realize, hindi music’s a little bit more serious than our music, and i’d appreciate it if you could, uh, try and settle down and get into the hindi music section. so let me introduce, on sitar, ravi shankar. and the master of sarood, ustad ali akbar khan. sarood. i’m sure you all know ravi’s tabla player, allah rakha. and this evening, the drone instrument, the tamboora, is being played by kamala. so i hope you enjoy the concert, thank you
ravi shankar:
tamboora. friends, as george told you just now, they will be partic-p-ting in the second part. the first part is going to be us playing for you on the indian instruments, the indian music. this is a type of music which needs a little concentrated listening. and i would request you to have little patience. i know you are very impatient to hear your favorite stars, who will be in the second part, but we are trying to set the music to this special event, this historical program, which is just not a program as usual but which has a message. and this is to just make you aware of a very serious situation that is happening. we are not trying to make any politic. we are artists, but through our music, we would like you to feel the agony and also the pain and lot of sad happenings in bangladesh, and also the refugees who have come to india. we will play a dhun, which means an air or a melody, which is based on a folk tune of bangladesh. and after that we’ll play a gat, a fast gat in teentaal of 16 beats. now, as usual, i would request you, my friends, to refrain or stop from smoking, while the program is on. thank you very much
