Hariprasad Chaurasia
THE ETHER
”The Yogis regulated the rhythm of the circulation, of the heart, and of every action of the breath by the help of the vibration of music, of both tone and rhythm.
This brought them from the audible vibrations to the inward vibrations; that is to say from sound to breath. For this the Hindus have one and the same word: sura, a name for both sound and breath.” – Hazrat Inayat Khan
In episode five of our profile series, we follow Hariprasad Chaurasia on the journey of breath and the inseparable relationship between nature, sound and the spirit.
We learn about his relationship with his instrument and Lord Krishna, how Riyaaz (practice) becomes an embodiment of prayer, along with his thoughts on change and innovation within music.
This mix features archival recordings of Ragas Bhimpalasi, Bhairavi, Bageshree, Bhoopali, Janasmohini, and Kirwani along with collaborations with M. Balamuralikrishna, Zakir Hussain and more.
India’s Classical Masters is a ten-part series in partnership with The Vinyl Factory.
