He was a master of the very microtonal Kirana tradition and greatly influenced Terry Riley and Lamont Young as well as other musicians interested in just intonation in singing. In addition to performing and teaching in India, he taught at UCSD in 1973 and was a visiting professor of music at Mills College from 1973 to 1984. --John Received: from eartha.mills.edu [144.91.3.20] by vbv40.ezh.nl with SMTP-OpenVMS via TCP/IP; Tue, 18 Jun 1996 02:17 +0100 Received: from by eartha.mills.edu via SMTP (940816.SGI.8.6.9/930416.SGI) for id RAA25821; Mon, 17 Jun 1996 17:17:09 -0700 Date: Mon, 17 Jun 1996 17:17:09 -0700 Message-Id: Errors-To: madole@ella.mills.edu Reply-To: tuning@eartha.mills.edu Originator: tuning@eartha.mills.edu Sender: tuning@eartha.mills.edu
