  abstract: In its third season, France TV's Variations continued to bring together stars of the electronic world with contemporary instrumental artists to see how their collaborations would play out in a live performance setting. In this show during the 2018 third-season at la Salle Wagram in Paris, the episode features rising-star British techno Gold Panda (aka Derwin Schlecker from the London-Essex border) joining the genre-defying sitar star Anoushka Shankar in interpreting the legacy of her father Ravi Shankar. He was the world-class maestro sitarist who introduced the Western world to Indian classical music. In that extraordinary crossover, he schooled a range of popular musicians, from George Harrison of the Beatles to classical minimalist composer Philip Glass. Gold Panda and Anoushka form a collaborative bridge between the acoustic-digital divide as their program features the two on an electronica journey through Ravi's cosmos. Anoushka is Ravi's daughter. She started playing the sitar under his tutelage when she was 7. She made her professional debut when she was 13, playing in her dad's group that became her school for learning the life of the ragas that her father espoused. At the beginning of the Variations set, the duo played archival audio capturing Ravi's wisdom: "Ragas are precisely melody forms; each raga has its own ascending and descending." In the show Gold delivered electronic beats, showering with electronic voices and rhythms providing the undergirding. Anouska was certainly highlighted with her soulful, serene, magical and mysterious voicings on the strings. She too dipped into electronica with her pedals and effects during her jazz-fueled improvisations. Her father was her musical guru who taught her to explore beyond the traditional. Here with soulful grooves and sitar virtuosity, Anouska has taken ragas, with the support of Gold Panda, into exciting new sonic vistas. Dan Ouellette.
