    Maestro Dies R.I.P.


    estro Ravi Shankar dies

    Maestro Dies R.I.P. Ravi Shankar was a music icon
    Indian sitar maestro Ravi Shankar has died in a hospital in the US, aged 92.
    Shankar was admitted to the Scripps Memorial Hospital in San Diego last week after complaining of breathing difficulties, reports say.
    Shankar, who helped bring Indian music to the world, played at Woodstock and the 1967 Monterey Pop festival.
    His daughters, sitar player Anoushka Shankar and Grammy award winning singer Norah Jones, are also acclaimed musicians.
    Shankar - a three time Grammy winner - and Anoushka had been nominated for the 2013 Grammy awards in the world music category.
    Ravi Shankar popularised the sitar - a long-necked Indian lute - and gained widespread international recognition because of his association with George Harrison of The Beatles.
    Harrison once called him "the godfather of world music".
    Shankar also composed a number of film scores - notably Satyajit Ray's celebrated Apu trilogy (1951-55) and Richard Attenborough's Gandhi (1982) - and collaborated with US composer Philip Glass in Passages in 1990.
    In 1999 he was awarded the highest civilian citation in India - the Bharat Ratna, or Jewel of India.
    Born into a Bengali family in the ancient Indian city of Varanasi, Ravi Shankar was originally a dancer with his brother's troupe.
    He gave up dancing to study the sitar at the age of 18.
    For the last years of his life, Ravi Shankar lived in Encinitas, California, with his wife Sukanya.
    He was a great influence to George Harrison (of the Beatles). Now they are Jamming in heaven
