Now, If I am not a singer, I have no business to be singing professionally or making the masses spend money to buy a product which is not a gift of God, but a gift of mankind i.e. Computer.

Abhi ji, What a pleasant surprise so good to see you back. Barnali Didi she finally broke the ice.

I have had the privilege of attending a few Fusion concerts of Violin Maestro Dr. L. Subramanian, and believe me, I did enjoy it very much.

Yes Priya i agree completely. these people r the ones who really knw music and so give us the best.

i;ll give another example which by my opinion is fusion/world music personified, is the band, Shakti. Yu put Ustad Zakir Hussain & Mr. John McLaughlin 2gether. no way r yu going to b disappointed. If yu've ever heard their track 'Joy' its just amazing what the 4 members on this band hav created. its clearly nt western and clearly nt indian (no antra-mukhda structure, no alaap-jhor-jhala structure. kinda like one big taan. And we have arpeggios!). And seeing the interplays lik those between Srinivas and McLaughlin r enough to make a grown man cry. Listen carefully and yu will notice tht the musicians r sticking to a rhythm signature. Thy r also sticking to a certain scale/thaat. So the indian and western artists in this case improvise on a selected beat pattern and scale. and out of this total improvisation something new and astounding is created. the artists who weave around each other's music make the music ...simply incredible. This is wht i feel what fusion music should be.
