| Summary |
Fabienne Le Houérou, Directrice de Recherche au C.N.R.S., suit l'évolution musicale de trois musiciens du Rajasthan (Inde) dans le désert du Thar. Ils nous emmènent dans leur univers mystique musical. Leur musique est une identité et une géographie. Les mélodies permettent une géolocalisation. Ils appartiennent aux basses castes au Rajasthan : on les appelle "manganiars", ce qui signifie "mendiants" en hindi. Ils sont statutairement des mendiants dans la société du Rajasthan mais de véritables sultans en musique. Paradoxe sublime qui sera exploré par nos enregistrements justifiant le titre de cette œuvre : "Princes et Vagabonds" |

Fabienne Le Houérou, Director of Research at the C.N.R.S., follows the musical evolution of three musicians from Rajasthan (India) in the Thar desert. They take us into their musical mystical universe. Their music is an identity and a geography. The melodies allow geolocation. They belong to the lower castes in Rajasthan: they are called "manganiars", which means "beggars" in Hindi. They are statutory beggars in Rajasthani society but real sultans in music. Sublime paradox that will be explored by our recordings justifying the title of this work: "Princes and Vagabonds" |
