"The world of Music would not be complete without Ghazals. The world of Ghazals would not be complete without Jagjit Singh. . But then Jagjit Singh arrived on the scene and has kept the ghazal flying high till today. His contribution becomes all the more significant because at a time when melody was doing away from our film music, his compositions and singing style gave us renewed hope. Even more so, the sway of Hindi cinema and its situational songs was so strong that the new arena of non-film music created by him brought a complete freshness to the music scene. There is absolutely no doubt that Jagjit Singh with his unique composing and singing style is the torchbearer of the survival of ghazals in India." Boldly signed on ffep by the composer. 164p. illus. discography (NOTE: this copy does NOT include the CDs] Laid in is a ticket from a concert he gave in Toronto in 2004 Book
brossura "Sono partita per andare nel Punjab del Pakistan con il desiderio di tornare con nuovi saperi utili a rinnovare l'incontro con le molte donne e famiglie pakistane che incontro nelle scuole, nei servizi sociali, nelle comunità e nelle case. Grazie alla presenza complice del mio accompagnatore, mediatore culturale, ho immaginato che il viaggio potesse aiutarmi a comprendere meglio il mondo della loro origine. Costruendo un itinerario che offrisse un arricchimento del mio sguardo, attraverso gli incontri nei villaggi tradizionali come nelle metropoli, all'Università del Punjab come nei Women Crisis Centres di Lahore, la mia esperienza è divenuta via via sempre più ricca e complessa. Ma grazie al partire da sé, da quel continuo essere interpellata sul "chi sono io", in un farsi e disfarsi della mia identità di genere, di ruolo familiare, della mia posizione di donna occidentale e di ricercatrice e dall'azione congiunta di Mediazione Culturale come ricerca di strategie interattive, traduzioni linguistiche e mediazioni relazionali indispensabili per facilitare la conoscenza è emersa la narrazione scritta di come ho incontrato il Pakistan."

Milano, 1959, stralcio con copertina posticcia muta, pp. 481/492 con numerose fotografie in nero e a colori. - !! ATTENZIONE !!: Con il termine estratto (o stralcio) intendiamo riferirci ad un fascicolo contenente un articolo di rivista, sia che esso sia stato stampato a parte utilizzando la stessa composizione sia che provenga direttamente da una rivista. Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perchè ci è sconosciuta. - !! ATTENTION !!: : NOT A BOOK : “estratto” or “stralcio” means simply a few pages, original nonetheless, printed in a magazine. Pages are indicated as in "from” “to", for example: 229/231 means the text comprises three pages (229, 230 and 231). If the magazine that contained the pages is not mentioned, it is because it is unknown to us.
