Rajasthani Gypsy Folk Music Version LANGA MANGANIAR
OLYMPIC HYMN “Celebrate Humanity !” ( Lyrics & Music Copyright : Lucius Alberts )
Song For The World : Hymn For The Universe
As part of THE OLYMPIC MUSIC MARATHON
Rajasthan ( India ), being the place where one can trace the roots of Flamenco, was where we looked for an unique version of THE OLYMPIC HYMN “Celebrate Humanity !”.
Clement ( who is an actor and playwrite ) took us on a musical journey and re-introduced us to Rajasthani Gypsy Folk Music LANGA MANGANIAR, as colourful as the clothes and turban they wear. During his more than 6 years stay in Rajasthan, Clement had arranged to put together a “Langa Manganiar Music Ensemble” and arrange for live concerts.
Nitin Hrsh of “Rhythm Of Rajasthan” arranged to get together Folk Musicians from around Barmer in Rajasthan, India, translate the lyrics into “Rajasthani Language” and record The Langa Manganiar Version of The Olympic Hymn “Celebrate Humanity !”.
This “Rajasthani LRanga Manganiar Version” and The Rajasthani Lyrics are based on Clement’s Arrangement for “Quawwali” and “Hindustani / Hindi”. Translation from the original English lyrics into Hindi / Hindustani was done by Dr. Mohan Govinda Limaye and Clement Alberts.
MUSIC INSTRUMENTS used in this version :
Sarangi ( Bow + String Instrument )
Morchang ( Morsing / Jaw harp )
Khar aal ( Wooden percussion sticks )
Dholak ( Drums )
SARANGI : This bow and string instrument originated from the Rajasthani Folk Instruments.
The sound of Sarangi resembles most, the sound of human voice, shadowing the vocalists’ improvisation.
MORCHANG : This metal instrument ( Jaw-Harp ) originated in India.
KHAR TAL : Hand held wooden percussion sticks ( like the Castanets used in Flamenco ).
DHOLAK : Two-sided drums, widely used by musicians in Rajasthan and other parts of India.
