Gandhi: The Man of Peace
Gandhi (George Fenton & Ravi Shankar)
This score is more of a personal homage than popular demand.
I am sure, this score isnt for everyone. Deeply rooted in Indian classical music performed by the maestro Pandit Ravi Shankar, the score blends Indian and western music, latter provided by George Fenton. The epic story of a simple man who brought down the world's biggest empire using simple ideas like truth and non-violence.

Gandhi never received the Nobel Peace Prize, though he was nominated five times between 1937 and 1948. Decades later (even in 2006), the Nobel Committee publicly declared its regret for the omission, and admitted to deeply divided nationalistic opinion denying the award. Mahatma Gandhi was to receive the Prize in 1948, but his assassination prevented the award from coming to him. The Prize was not awarded in 1948, the year of Gandhi's death, on the grounds that "there was no suitable living candidate" that year. [wikipedia]
As I discussed Gandhi and his values with my parents, I found it hard to imagine that someone like him lived (or would live again) on this earth. Now, I know what Albert Einstein meant when he said "Generations to come will scarce believe that such a one as this ever in flesh and blood walked upon this earth."
My tributes to the man we call, Mahatma Gandhi

This is great! Love Ravi's music.
I've been requesting all over the place looking for Ravi Shankar's score for the Cliff Robertson movie "Charly". I think it was the sitar maestro's first film score.
i will try my best to look for it
if you like indian classical music, let me know ... i can send you some links or maybe upload a few albums
Well put, Myth, and do keep up the good work - your selection so far has been superb!
Thank you for responding, a quest is a good thing. One day this will be found. I just don't want to be a broken record over it.
I second frazzle's sentiment, well done!
Do you have a digitized version of the "Discovery of India" track? I've been looking all over for it, and it doesn't exist in any digital format anywhere?
