Rolling Stone writes: A late acknowledgment of the jazz-fusion greats by the Recording Academy notwithstanding, there\u2019s a lot more diversity that has been growing from the style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier today, most of India woke up to the news that Indian music was shining yet again at the Grammys<\/a>. The Recording Academy Awards, which took place on February 4th, brought cheer to jazz-fusion pioneers Shakti<\/a>, who won Best Global Music Album for 2023\u2019s This Moment<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the win with Shakti, tabla maestro\u00a0Zakir Hussain<\/a>\u00a0was part of two more Grammy-winning projects at the66th Annual Grammy Awards<\/a>. For his work on Bela Fleck and Edgar Meyer\u2019s album\u00a0As We Speak\u00a0<\/em>(Best Contemporary Instrumental Album) and the song \u201cPashto\u201d (Best Global Music Performance) featuring flautist Rakesh Chaurasia, Hussain increased his tally. All Indian artists who won Grammys this year have been making Indian fusion music (among other things) for decades, arguably legends, virtuosos and seasoned artistic minds in their own right, which makes the accolade for\u00a0Shakti\u00a0<\/em>a long-deserved one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It can also tell us a lot about the changing perception of fusion music that draws from Indian classical forms. Across Grammy history, everyone from sitar legend Pandit Ravi Shankar<\/a> to most recently, the Berklee Indian Ensemble<\/a> have been up for awards, mostly for fusing India\u2019s traditional music with styles like jazz, Western classical and more. Bengaluru-based slide guitarist, composer and vocalist Dr. Prakash Sontakke says Shakti should have been awarded more than 30 years ago. He says, \u201cWhat feels good about this award is that it\u2019s been given to the pioneers. Usually, what happens is that people who pioneer [the style] are lost in history.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Composer, guitarist and producer Ehsaan Noorani<\/a> turns the pages back a little further, crediting Shakti founder John McLaughlin\u2019s work with his band The Mahavishnu Orchestra as seminal to introducing Indian music elements to a Western audience. \u201cIt\u2019s in the sense that McLaughlin didn\u2019t have Indian instruments, but he had Indian principles, scales and raags<\/em>. I would say Shakti was the true global fusion band,\u201d Noorani adds.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sontakke says that it\u2019s tough creating fusion music that really breaks through and becomes global the way Shakti has done in the last 50 years. \u201cUnless both cultures [of a fusion project] listen to both sides of the story, the fusion will be unexplored,\u201d he adds. Understandably, Noorani does have a bone to pick with the convenience that a term like \u201cfusion\u201d was coined on, but acknowledges that \u201cglobal music\u201d \u2013 which is the Grammy category name \u2013 is much more fitting to describe Shakti. He says, \u201cZakir is truly a global musician, not just a tabla player, you know? His knowledge of music is very deep, in terms of different styles of music.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shakti\u2019s win, according to Sontakke means that Indian classical music can get a bigger push and has proven how versatile it is as a form. He feels there has been complacency in terms of receiving due recognition and quality (which are, of course, interlinked) after the initial acclaim from the Sixties onwards. \u201cI thought it was going to go some next level but then suddenly, it just became a niche. If you wanted to find something you had to go back to records before the Eighties,\u201d Sontakke says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When asked about current Indian fusion bands that Noorani has tuned into recently, he says nothing for him has stuck the same way the music of McLaughlin has, with some of the newer fusion running the risk of being too \u201cone-dimensional.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nevertheless, there are new Indian fusion music experimentalists who are finding audiences in India and are still striving to find a global audience \u2013 from Anirudh Varma Collective\u2019s 2023 U.S. tour<\/a> to vocalist-composer Varijashree Venugopal<\/a>\u2019s upcoming album produced by Snarky Puppy<\/a> bandleader Michael League<\/a>, prog-fusion band Project MishraM<\/a> becoming regulars on the U.K. tour circuit and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tabla artist Ishaan Ghosh<\/a> \u2013 who releases music as a solo artist as well as with his neo-classical band Araj<\/a> \u2013 says the win for Shakti and Hussain is inspirational. \u201c[Hussain] has been one of the chief architects of the world music scene, particularly placing Indian music \u2013 particularly the tabla \u2013 on the world map,\u201d Ghosh says. The son of tabla and sitar great Nayan Ghosh, Ishaan says Araj is \u201cstrongly inspired\u201d by Shakti. Ghosh released a techno-meets-tabla single called \u201cEuphoria<\/a>\u201d last month and he says it\u2019s about striking the right balance if Indian fusion music can continue to make a mark globally. \u201cIt\u2019s what he [Hussain] has always preached, is to always stay true to your roots.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A seasoned artist like Sontakke \u2013 who has performed with artists around the world \u2013 says that it might have taken decades for a leading fusion band like Shakti to get recognized at the Grammys, so the journey for Indian fusion has a lot more to give the country and the world at large. \u201cI have a feeling that in India, the fusion chapter is just the beginning. It can go on for a hundred years without still being fully explored,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
