Indian Music Requires that One Becomes Available Like a Hollow Bambu

Amano Manish, a gifted Mohan Veena (slide guitar) player from India disciple of Brij Bushan Kabra, interviews Manish Vyas. They talk about the journey of learning, composing and presenting music from India. A very interesting conversation for those fascinated by the world of Indian arts and the different genres of Indian music: classical, spiritual, Sufi and other.In this pleasant conversation, they talk about their beginnings in music, arts, expressing and composing music, the skills required to be trained – and the influence of Osho in their musical path. In Indian music there is a whole journey of learning which never ends, a journey of performing where it it’s not about the performer but about the music and a journey of creativity which is enhanced along the path in different ways and through different experiences.“The focus of creating and sharing music should always be on enjoying what one is doing, without thinking of achieving anything in particular.” Manish VyasIt is also discussed the spreading of Mantra around the world using it in music and the tendency of distortion in its public presentation; together with the importance and responsibility of putting the right music to a sacred genre like Mantra.The importance in connecting with the right music and the right source lies in the possibility to discover and relate to the true essence of this millenary culture from India.“The art in Indian arts and music is to remain open and available and becoming empty like a hollow bamboo – then the music can play through you. Versatility is currently the dimension of life.” Manish VyasManish Vyas: www.manishvyas.comAmano Manish (interviewer): www.amanomanish.com
