Sitar, Dhrupad, and breathing into the space of South Asian classical music
Description
In this episode, we highlight new forms of innovative research being done on South Asian classical music through the AIIS performing and creative arts fellowship. Sitarist and ethnomusicologist Brian Q. Silver interviews sitarist and AIIS fellow Paul Livingstone. Through their knowledgeable experiences as international performers and dedicated musicians, Brian Q. Silver and Paul Livingstone discuss Paul's AIIS fellowship, the flavor of Dhrupad, and the techniques and freedom of giving space to music.
