The exceptional crossover music of this Indo Jazz World Fusion concert consists here on this Live CD of 3 compositions by the Indian master musician Pandit Deobrat Mishra (Indeuropia, Remembering Pramila Mishra, Power Of The Music), 3 old Indian ragas (Gawati, Darbari, Kirwani) and 3 western compositions of Damien Prud'homme (Mosaic Vision), of John Lennon/ Paul McCartney (Norwegian Wood) and of George Harrison (While My Guitar Gently Weeps). The sitar, an Indian instrument with a particularly long neck, was played in 1965 by George Harrison for the first time in western music on the song Norwegian Wood of The Beatles. Therefore the musicians of the project "India meets Europe" want to pay tribute to the Beatles and to George Harrison by bringing back their two songs Norwegian Wood and While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
