Beschreibung
How can music from different traditions be interwoven without appropriating one into the other. Sandeep Bhagwati explores this question through essays, poems, and parables spanning three decades. As a composer working between Indian and European sound worlds, he develops the concept of abdagatitra-the weaving of sonic modes of movement-offering a way of thinking beyond fusion and exoticism. Bhagwati reveals how Western art music derives its claim to universality from colonial structures, and shows that even the avant-garde often denies its own traditionality. He describes existence between cultures not as a loss, but as a sharpening of perception. His texts combine musicological analysis with autobiographical reflection, philosophical depth, and literary force. This book is a toolbox for anyone who seeks to understand music as a plural practice-musicians, curators, cultural scholars, and attentive listeners willing to leave behind familiar hierarchies of listening.
