Apologies in advance to the OT nature of the post, but seeing how Indian music is currently under discussion, I thought I'd bring it up. No looping content for this gig, unless you consider a tanpura to be a manual real-time looper. ;-) ************************* On Sunday, November 10th at 12:00 noon the Kimmel Center will present a recital of North Indian classical music by James Pokorny. The program will feature traditional ragas performed on the surbahar and sitar. The recital will be held in Commonwealth Plaza. Admission is free and open to the public. For directions please see the Kimmel Center website: http://www.kimmelcenter.org or call 215-790-5800 ****************************** James Pokorny received his primary instruction in North Indian classical music on sitar and surbahar from Dr. Allyn Miner, a sitarist and music historian associated with the University of Pennsylvania, with whom he has been studying since 1983. James has also traveled to India several times for advanced training under the guidance of Dr. Raj Bhan Singh, an eminent sitarist and professor of music at Banaras Hindu University in Varanasi. ******************************
