Vishal Vaid at TED

Back to MainPage.  Back to MiscellaneousStuff.

Watch this engaing modern Indian musical work by Vishal Vaid and his troupe.  It's got elements of traditional and modern, eastern and western.  I can feel some Jim Morrison wanting to Break on through in the bass-lines.  And Vishal's vocals don't fail for a moment to blend, uplift and enhance the performance.

The traditional elements of his vocal work emerge from his training in 'ghazal', for more, see the Wikipedia entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghazal.

Here's his TED performance.

You can also find him on YouTube:
