Version 3: Benjy Wertheimer (esraj and tabla) and Steve Gorn (bansuri) Instruments: bansuri, esraj, tambura and tabla Bansuri: The bansuri is a flute from India made from a single hollow shaft of bamboo with six or seven finger holes.

Version 3: Benjy Wertheimer (esraj and tabla) and Steve Gorn (bansuri) Instruments: bansuri, esraj, tambura and tabla Esraj: A string instrument with a medium sized sitar-like neck with 20 heavy metal frets. This neck holds on a long wooden rack of 12-15 sympathetic strings. There are four main strings, which are bowed.

Version 3: Benjy Wertheimer (esraj and tabla) and Steve Gorn (bansuri) Instruments: bansuri, esraj, tambura and tabla Tambura: A long necked plucked stringed instrument found in different versions in different places. The tambura has no frets, as only the open strings are played as a harmonic accompaniment to the other musicians. It has four or five wire strings, which are plucked one after another in a regular pattern to create a drone.

Version 3: Benjy Wertheimer (esraj and tabla) and Steve Gorn (bansuri) Instruments: bansuri, esraj, tambura and tabla Tabla: A pair of hand drums of contrasting sizes and timbres.

Version 3: Benjy Wertheimer (esraj and tabla) and Steve Gorn (bansuri) Structure: Three movements- Alap Gat 1 (slow) Gat 2 (fast) Watch the video of V3 and annotate the score or write notes in your green book http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEJmYDwSVz0&feature=related

Detailed Analysis of Version 3: Features Time Section Features 0.00 – 8.35 Alap (part 1) Slow and unmeasured section. Drone is established by the tambura which plays the notes Sa (C) and Pa (G) (tonic and dominant). The bansuri (flute) then comes in, playing the rag. This develops from trying out the various pitches in short fragments to a more developed melodic part. 0.00 – 4.41 Gat 1 (part 2) Slow tempo. Lyrical unaccompanied melody for the bansuri and the tabla comes in at 0.31 playing the seven-beat rupak tala. Rupak tal (7 beats): 3 + 2 + 2 2 3 4 5 6 7 Wave Clap Clap

Detailed Analysis of Version 3: Features Time Section Features Gat 1 (part 2) This fixed composition then starts at 0.43. Following this the music becomes more agitated and dramatic. Improvisation takes over around the gat, while the tabla player also decorates the original tala pattern. The bansuri then plays the gat repeatedly whilst the tabla player improvises. At 3.32 the two instruments swap function = bansuri improvises and tabla accompanies. Several tihais are heard to mark out section ends. The last of these leads into the second gat at 4.41 4.41- end Gat 2 (part 3) A fast tempo (drut) in ektal tala. Ektal tal (12 beats): 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 clap clap wave clap wave clap Tabla sets a fast tempo, bansuri plays an elaborate gat containing wide ranges of pitch, scalic runs and slides. Fast scale passages are called tans.
