Two spacey organ cuts which originally came on Adi's 1982 "Popular Movie Melodies From India" LP (covering Bollywood classics). Unfortunatly I wasn't able to recongnize any of them.
"Adi understands the pain and agony of human life. He soothes his patients and brings happiness to young hearts, through his medical background and his extravagant musical talents." (back cover notes)

Only a little informations are available on the net about the keyboard maestro. Anyway he seems to be part of a small spiritual group named the Zarathushtri community... Playing and accompanying as some sort of music therapeutist he provides rousing music to keep all involved until late hours for jubilee celebrations etc...
In response to the post on the Portsmouth Sinfonia a couple of days ago, here are a selection of tracks from Artur Zmijewski's Deaf Bach recordings. Zmijewski, a Polish visual artist, is known well for his work with disabled people.
The recordings are the result of two projects - "Lekcja śpiewu" / "Singing Lesson" (2001), performed in the Augsburg-Evangelican church in Warsaw, and "Lekcja śpiewu 2" / "Singing Lesson 2" (2003), performed at the Leipzig Cathedral.
For both projects, Zmijewski selected a group of deaf and near-deaf young people, and formed a choir. With none of the group having sung before, it was an introduction not just to choral performance but singing in any sense. Accompanied by trained musicians, an occasional soprano and a conductor, "Singing Lesson" saw the group perform Jan Maklakiewicz's Polish Mass, while "Singing Lesson 2" interprets a J. S. Bach cantata. Also included is a solo piece by one of the group, 'I love you', sung by Anja Fessel.
The result is astounding and magnificently cacophonous, managing to explore the limits and potentials of disability both humorously and respectfully. And it's an interesting counterpoint to Gavin Bryars' purposefully chaotic Portsmouth Sinfonia..
I love you I can not forget you Every days and every hours i remember about you I love you The world can not hear Without you I have lose, because you belong me
I can sleep by you, because you love me You can say me, how many feeling need you and how you feel me Without you I can not live
I love you...
When you go somewhere else, then you are not by me I do not love you, because you have another You can not say me, how very you feel Without you I can not live
I love you
I love you I thought you very Come to me back! Without you I can not live
