INTRO: The Anjali mudra, with hands held together at the heart,
is a gesture of reverence, benediction and salutation, a perfect
symbol of the devotional spirit at the heart of Indian music.
The drone, the steady tonk-a-tonk rhythm of the electronic tabla,
the familiar twang of the sitar, the curvilinear ornaments of
the voice, plus electronic bass and keyboards — are all signs of
an effort to bring the venerable traditions of Indian music into the
21st century.
This example comes from Holland, but it might have come from
almost anywhere. With its high musical skill, seductive sensuality
and devotional character, Indian music generates intense loyalty
and finds receptive listeners all over the world.
On this transmission of HEARTS of SPACE, another journey in
the contemporary Indian soundscape called ANJALI.
