STORY: Music it is said, happens to be universal language and this was reiterated by Bruno Beiri, an ace musician from Switzerland who regaled a houseful hall of school and other guests at Dehradun, the capital city of India's northern state of Uttarakhand recently.
Indeed, the students of Unison World School in Dehradun were left spellbound by the drone of the Swiss-alphorn played by Beiri.
Incidentally, this performance was staged on the Founder's Day celebrations of the school and Bruno Beiri accompanied by Sandro Schneebeli reciprocated in a befitting manner.
Both the musicians rose to the occasion with their beautiful rendition on their Swiss musical instruments.
Bruno Bieri who also happens to be a music teacher in the land of Alps shared a few light moments with the students and introduced them to the melody and rhythm of Swiss music.
On his part, Sandro Schneebeli, a guitarist and composer, complimented Bieri and the duo swayed the audience.
An ace jazz as well as classical and traditional Swiss music forms, Brieri was all praise for the Indian music.
He noted that music transcends all barriers and narrated how the Indian Tabla could be beautifully fused with the Swiss-Alphorn to produce a melodious rhythm.
"Indian tabla with the Swiss-Alphorn... the Indian tabla gave me the rhythm and the horn gave the opposite, the mellow. So there is collaboration. There is really a communication. There is common equation with nations because music has the soul quality of every nation inside," said Bruno Brieri, ace Swiss musician.
He had the students in raptures when he sang the Swiss-yodel and played the Swiss-Hang.
Bruno Brieri, who idolises Sitar maestro Pandit Ravi Shankar and percussionist Zakir Hussain was all praise for Indian music and said that music originated in India and that it was from here that Europeans learnt the art of music.
"Indian music is so huge (expansive). I cannot give any message. You (India) already gave the message to Europe and so we take it with Ravi Shankar, with Zakir Hussain. We are still in moment to say 'thank you' for your message and now you ask me to give a message but I can't because India has already given such a big message," added Bruno Brieri, ace Swiss musician.
No wonder, it was not only a memorable experience for the student's of Unison World School which also acted in reinforcing cultural bondage between two beautiful nations - India and Switzerland sans any barrier, courtesy the universal language of music.
