Menuhin With Shankar
Yehudi Menhuin took part in a concert of Indian music at the Bath Festival last month, joining Ravi Shankar, Alla Rakha and a supporting tamboura player in a raga tilang for violin, sitar, tabla and tamboura.
The work was specially commissioned for the occasion from Peter Feuchtwanger and after starting with a simple, diatonic five-note raga and a 16-beat tala went on to conclude with a lively jhala described as “something like an Indian Hungarian Rhapsody.”
