What gives music its identity? | Anuja Kamat | TEDxPanaji

[@samraat3424]

Anuja is a genius in musicology. She is indeed a national treasure. She is so knowledgeable and yet so humble. Her concluding comment says it all. “Music is not to impress but to express”.

[@AsadAli-jc5tg]

Hann tou phir fame kaise milega?

[@euphoria156]

I FEEL SORRY FOR YOUR IGNORANCE ANUJA KAMAT 😑👎 RBAAB is NOT Afghanistani musical instrument!! 😡 RBAAB WAS CREATED BY GURU NAANAK DEV JI OF INDIA. AND ITS VERY WELL KNOWN. Can not believe your poor knowledge and that you showed your poor knowledge to the whole world in TedTalk. 🙄🙄 The music director of the film used RBAAB to make the music of that song to show that area's music because that's a similar instrument used in that area as well. 😑

She is the Music Consultant of Bandish Bandit on Amazon Prime! She is just superb!! I am a big fan of this talented soul!

[@rameshbhangay5421]

She has explained the types, situations and combinations very well to understand the nuances of MUSIC! But you seem to be a class above for your pungent remarks! God bless you.

[@prashantjoshi849]

She is the ambassador of Indian music .. All the best 👍

[@tarunsharma5732]

I guess Lydian Nadhaswaram is ambassador of Indian music

[@surbhikulkarni5932]

Anuja Kamat is a true representation of Beauty with Brains! Not many performing artists have the talent to express and convey their knowledge in such a profound way! She has in depth wisdom at such a young age! I was extemely pleased to know that she is the Music Consultant for Bandish Bandit on Amazon Prime! Kudos Anuja Kamat and you will definitely reach great heights!!!!!!!!! God bless!!!!!!!!!

[@RAIRADIO]

She is the ambassador of Indian music TO INDIA. As most Indians like me are clueless and nonchalant about our own music treasure.

Anuja.. I saw saregamapa episode 2 2009 where you were eliminated by judges. Suresh wadker. I believe you stand bigger and shine brighter than all winners of Saregamapa...The way you breathe music is remarkable ...Hats off ...

[@kuntalmistry]

1. "Our Intention & emotion gives identity to music." 2. Music is to express, not to impress..!

[@satyaramc]

Profound logic....very right too...

[@gabrielcaleb9277]

That one smashed my heart 💔

[@ghjization]

"Music has a flavour, a grammar, a literature and a philosophy. And most of all, it's our intention and emotion which gives it an identity, which lies beyond the sphere of forms and techniques which separate these musical traditions and schools." Anuja, I am your fan for bringing music out to a common mind, putting it like every other topic, that too in a scientific - academic but comprehensive way. Thanks.

[@subramanyandakshinamoorthy2477]

What a profound statement. " Use music as a channel to express instead of impress"... WoW. Perhaps all the arrogant Vidwans/ Vidushi's/Ustads/ Pandits of yester and current years can learn a thing or two! Well said Ms. Kamath!

[@samraat3424]

I watched this video again. Anuja does know a lot about music from other countries. Not many do. She can be a really good composer in addition to being a singer, reach another new level of creativity by blending themes from other countries. Some composers have done it, but Anuja’s knowledge could scale new heights.

[@hanafromtunisia6545]

She's an inspiration ! She is one of my favourite musicians and youtubers She has given me too much knowledge ... valuable knowledge

[@DhirajChawla]

Very true,I listen and watch her

[@pranjalihankare1483]

I gave a thumbs up at the moment she asked that question as an 8 yr. old.

[@jishaanand]

Only a true devotee or student of music can express and represent music so beautifully.. The complexity of music was so marvelously simplified explained and demonstrated... Kudos..

[@9ine-fd6zc]

Hope she comes back to KZbin because her storytelling is so captivating and she gives gems which makes music so much sense, can see her passion in that beautiful smile

[@jaybhil4684]

[@chrisfernandes3353]

Anddddd there goes a true ambassador for the surreal, inimitable essence that is Goa, an oasis so deviously maligned as the home of vice, laziness, and sin. This enlightened being has tuned into the wisdom continually hummed by the ocean surf, whistled by the wind, breathed by the dancing coconut fronds and whispered by the rain-scent of the meteor - dust kissed fields.. Goa is a muse, a benevolent alchemist, changing lost souls to eternal creative Spirit... Miss Kamat's is the much needed elusive, Quixotic, hypnotic ode to my homeland, Goa

[@gagandeepkalshi3615]

Beautiful interpretation and perspective! She's an artist in its truest form, to be able to appreciate the core essence of art. The intention to impress and make money has ruined the people's ability to make better music and also appreciate good music.

What gives music its true identity is expressing your unstoppable emotions. A villager woman falling in virah of her husband may naturally give birth to a new composition, local flavour, which then rises to folk music to commercial to different variations given by musicians & generations to come. But it is fundamentally rooted to deep emotions at its inception with very localised flavour.
