ravishankarA truly superb Lalit by Ravi Shankar, in which panditji plays alap and jod. This is an LP record, dated 1967, (EMI - ODEON - ASD-2341).

In this recording, Shankarji's jod is so perfect that it could well serve as a model, so orthodox it is.

Here are two tracks of his first CD recording which you may get from him. He develops alap, jod and jhala in rag Ahir Bhairav.

Convertissez les mp3 en AIFF, avec votre App favorite, pour faire des loops (boucles) et pratiquer.
Si vous êtes sur Mac, prenez iTunes, allez dans le menu "pref/importing/ import using: AIFF converter", faites la conversion et ouvrez le fichier AIFF, par exemple dans Peak 3.0, et cliquez, en bas de la fenêtre, dans l'icone du loop.
IMPORTANT ! Il existe 2 sharewares sous OS X qui vous permettent de faire des loops avec des mp3 - sans rupture de continuité. (onglet "Mac")
Tanpura et tabla sont pitchés en ré sur la base d'un la plus haut que celui du téléphone ... donc, approximativement 442, mais je n'ai pas vérifié, avoue-je, rouge de honte.

Beaucoup mieux que de bidouiller mes loops, il existe une app absolument superbe qui dépasse tous les tanpuras boxes, tablas boxes et logiciels existants sur PC et même sur Mac ... l'oiseau rare s'appelle iTabla Pro
Elle tourne sur l'excellent iPhone - justifie à elle seule son achat - et a été conçue par Prasad Upasani - un chanteur Hindustani et informaticien talentueux, vivant aux States.
Achetez-là vite ! elle vaut chaque nea paisa / chaque cent d'euro de son prix. Vous pouvez la telecharger sur iTunes
