While folk music in India is mostly an undocumented art form, there are a few organisations that are tirelessly working to shine the light on this forgotten style of music. One such organisation is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCZfIf8e8HWXoY3a1cAD9S1w\">Anahad Foundation<\/a> that was founded by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/simplyabhi\/\">Abhinav Agrawal<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8212;-<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On an extremely busy Monday evening for him, I got on a call with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/profile\/abhinav-agrawal\/?sh=445cbc2e1890\">Abhinav<\/a> to talk more about the GMI Blog and possible collaboration. His enthusiastic response reinforced the perception that I already had about Abhinav:\u00a0 a humble person who is passionate, and driven by his desire to create. We decided to have a chat in person, instead of doing a phone interview. I asked him one question and after that, I was completely wrapped up in his fascinating adventure of a life. Here\u2019s the first part of that conversation where we\u2019ve tried to document Abhinav\u2019s early life and his drive to bring about change.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>Sangeeta and Sangeet<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/corporate-head-shot.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-5808 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/corporate-head-shot-240x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"293\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/corporate-head-shot-240x300.jpeg 240w, https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/corporate-head-shot-819x1024.jpeg 819w, https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/corporate-head-shot-768x960.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/corporate-head-shot-700x875.jpeg 700w, https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/corporate-head-shot.jpeg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 293px) 100vw, 293px\" \/><\/a>His story started with him telling me about his mother, Sangeeta. (yep! Her name is Sangeeta!)<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cShe is an avid listener, and has one of the biggest collections of cassette tapes and records that I\u2019ve ever seen in my life. She always wanted to learn music but her responsibilities did not allow her the time and space to do so,\u201d he said. While Abhinav doesn\u2019t come from a musical family, it\u2019s his mother\u2019s influence that really developed his taste for music. He grew up in a small village in UP, near Bulandshahr without much exposure to different instruments or music in general. A very young Abhinav was taken by Zakhir Hussain\u2019s tabla playing in the Taj Mahal tea ad and at the age of 4 he started his journey in music with the tabla. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He explained to me that the initial experience of a Tabla player mostly involves <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sangat <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and that\u2019s what he did as well. This quickly developed his fascination for vocals too and he started learning Hindustani vocal music from <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Allahabad Gharana<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> while continuing his tabla studies from <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dilli Gharana<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. \u201cClassical music is a discipline, and you learn this discipline through different things. For example, if you were to study classical music in the south of the country i.e. Carnatic music, you would be learning largely through devotional songs or <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bhajans<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Similarly, in the central part of the country, you would learn through <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dhrupad<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and in the north, through <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chhota Khayal<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bada Khayal<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In my town, I learnt classical music primarily through folk music and that\u2019s how I got introduced to it,\u201d he added.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>Bringing back nature<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSC03065.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-5809\" src=\"https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSC03065-300x200.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"329\" height=\"219\" srcset=\"https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSC03065-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSC03065-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSC03065-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSC03065-700x467.jpeg 700w, https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSC03065.jpeg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 329px) 100vw, 329px\" \/><\/a>While he continued his journey in music, his real passion actually lay elsewhere. \u201cI think hundred percent of the folks that I was learning about were about nature. We sang about welcoming spring, about peacocks, about mangoes, so my music learning actually brought me closer to nature and that\u2019s where I found my real passion. I always thought of music as a language of nature.\u201d Shortly after he discovered his real passion, Abhinav\u2019s town went through some unplanned urbanisation that led to massive deforestation. All the gardens and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">baghs<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> were gone in a matter of two or three years. This, in turn, impacted the culture of the town. People stopped singing folks, they stopped celebrating festivals that celebrated nature. He goes on to explain, \u201cmy first objective was to somehow bring nature back, as I knew that if I bring nature back, I would be able to bring the music back.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Abhinav studied architecture for his undergraduate degree and started researching a lot on how to design cities better\u00a0 without taking away from the culture of that city. Abhinav\u2019s attachment to nature earned him a Child Scientist award from APJ Abdul Kalam in school itself as he formulated better ways of water harvesting to replenish the water table of his city which were later implemented as bylaws within the region. \u201cThere\u2019s a quote by a famous architect that states, \u2018Architecture is frozen music.\u2019 All the principles of composition, design etc. that we learn in architecture are applicable to music,\u201d he added. During his 5 year degree, Abhinav made the most music of his life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI was studying in Bhopal, which is the central part of the country, and most of the trains pass through Bhopal. During my stay there, I used to get into trains to anywhere with my laptop and my soundcard, meet random folk artists, record them, burn a CD of their track, and give it to them. I did this every weekend for the first two years of my degree.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/first-documentation-Dapu-khan-scaled.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-5805 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/first-documentation-Dapu-khan-300x200.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"749\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/first-documentation-Dapu-khan-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/first-documentation-Dapu-khan-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/first-documentation-Dapu-khan-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/globalmusicinstitute.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/first-documentation-Dapu-khan-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 749px) 100vw, 749px\" \/><\/a>After this, something brilliant started to happen where these folk artists started calling him to help them get more physical copies of their music. Selling these CDs became a source of livelihood for them. \u201cThis is how the idea of Anahad came about. I didn\u2019t really have a methodology, but I knew that I wanted to record and preserve folk music so it&#8217;s accessible to the generations to come,\u201d he stated. In his second year of college, he registered <a href=\"https:\/\/anahad.ngo\/\">Anahad Foundation<\/a> but quickly realised that it\u2019s quite a cumbersome process to run an organisation like that and that he would require funding. He started researching colleges to study Music Business and ended up auditioning for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.berklee.edu\/global\">Berklee College of Music<\/a>\u2019s music business program at <a href=\"https:\/\/valencia.berklee.edu\/\">Berklee Valencia<\/a>. Abhinav received the highest scholarship possible and there he started work on Anahad as a project for his masters thesis.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Abhinav\u2019s hard work and passion has led him to work with some brilliant folk artists, as well as renowned musicians from all over the world. The next part of the conversation will cover his journey with Anahad and how he brought the studio to the folk artists instead of bringing them to the studio.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stay tuned!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"color: #993366;\">Abhinav Agrawal is an ethnomusicologist, musician and social entrepreneur, while also being the Founder-Director of the Non-Profit Organisation, Anahad Foundation. He has been working towards creating and reviving the diminishing folk music industry in India, by creating self-reliant models that generate livelihoods, pride and dignity for stakeholders connected to this art form. In doing so, Abhinav is helping create a Folk Music industry that is a sustainable art form and an industry that is musician-led.
