SAATH-SAATH: MUSIC ACROSS THE WATERS
薩特赫-薩特赫：印度斯坦音樂演出與交流
2016年11月，由印度導演Surabhi Sharma和文化理論學者Tejaswini Niranjana創作的錄像裝置《利亞茲》參展第十一屆上海雙年展。作為雙年展的合作活動，西天中土舉辦了包括中印音樂在內的名為“利亞茲空間”的系列工作坊和演出。
在這次合作能量基礎之上，名為“薩特赫-薩特赫”（Saath-Saath）的三年計劃將旨在達成中印音樂家間新的合作成果。Saath一詞的印地語含義為“壹起”。
這壹計劃的整體目標是激發出藉由印度學者和音樂家的投入來思考中國大陸和香港文化實踐問題的強烈興趣。長期目標是擴大批判社會科學-人文學術領域，通過銜接諸如音樂創造這樣的文化實踐來幫助我們扣問當代時刻。在亞洲，當我們面對過去時，我們同過去的關系如何？今天習得印度古典音樂表演的技術，或彈奏琵琶，或表演昆曲意味著什麽？印度和中國的表演形式和音樂教學風格告訴我們自身同日常世界的怎樣聯系？探索這些問題的第壹步是發展音樂家之間的合作性對話。“薩特赫-薩特赫”項目令印度和中國的表演者得以打開音樂對話的方法。
In November 2016, a video installation, authored by film-maker Surabhi Sharma and cultural theorist Tejaswini Niranjana, and titled "Riyaaz' (practice), was exhibited at the 11th Shanghai Biennale. As a collateral event of the Biennale, a series of workshops and performances called 'The Space of Riyaaz' took place, involving Indian and Chinese music.
Building on the collaborative energies of the November 2016 project, the Saath-Saath Project, extending over three years, will aim to achieve new collaborative outcomes with the participation of Indian and Chinese musicians. The Hindi word Saath means ‘together’.
The overall objective is to generate a strong interest in thinking through questions of cultural practice in Mainland China and Hong Kong with the inputs of scholars and musicians from India. A long-term goal would be to enlarge the scope of critical social science-humanities scholarship through connecting to the ways in which cultural practices like music-making help us interrogate the contemporary moment. What is our relationship to the past as we envisage it in Asia? What does it mean to acquire the skills to perform Indian classical music or play the pipa or act in Kunqu opera today? What do modes of performance and musical teaching styles in India and China tell us about how we relate to our everyday worlds? The first step in exploring some of these questions would be to develop collaborative conversations between musicians. The Saath-Saath Project enlists Indian and Chinese performers to open up avenues of musical conversation.
