Moving my blog over to shawnmativetsky.com

Dear friends,

With the recent update of my website, I now have the ability to integrate the blog directly into the website, so that is what I am doing; it just makes sense. I will no longer be posting updates here. Thank you to all of you for your interest in my musical adventures. Please click along to my website for the continuation of this blog in the future! If you would like to update your RSS subscription, this is the new RSS URL: http://shawnmativetsky.com/blogs/blog.atom

I hope to see you over at shawnmativetsky.com!

Tabla Solo Audio Clip

Hi everyone,

I decided to post up a very short tabla solo on MySpace. Please have a listen!

http://www.myspace.com/shawnmativetsky

It was from a concert I gave in March, where I was asked to play a tabla solo that demonstrated the full range of Benarsi tabla repertoire, but in under 10 minutes! For a tabla solo, that's very short; I normally would have liked to play for at least 30-40 minutes. And no Benarsi theka if you can believe that ... 

A quick analysis: bhumika, uthan, moharas, kaida, rela, Punjabi gat (in rela), gat-fard (in rela), farmaishi tukra, tukra.

Enjoy!
