36 Rajasthani musicians

The Manganiyar were fantastic. Part of the Singapore arts festival, this was a peep show of incredible Indian musicians, the opening and closing of curtains and the rhythmic, synchronised switching on and off of dressing room light globes. All orchestrated by the greatest display of castanet playing this side of Leonardo Balanda's Concertina for Castanets and Orchestra Three Anecdotes (1977).
