Ravi Shankar - Godfather of World Music (2020)

Ravi Shankar was the best-known Indian musician in the Western world, a designation he achieved as a composer and master of the sitar. He had a seemingly insatiable appetite to explore and create new musical forms, and an amiable personality that encouraged musicians, famous or not, to study with him.

Though he is best known in the West for his association with the Beatles and George Harrison in particular—a friend and student who dubbed him "the godfather of world music"—and as father to Norah Jones, Shankar's reputation at home emerged after a long period of study in Maihar, India, with Allauddin Khan, a composer and multi-instrumentalist who created the Hindustani music form known as the Maihar gharana, which Shankar embraced.
