Writing Homework Help

Was the world ready to appreciate Shankar’s music for what it was as part of it’s own 

musical tradition, or was it so well received because people were seeking something truly 

different from what they were raised to believe about music? Were people of the West 

romanticizing the classical Indian tradition that Shankar represented? Or was the whole 

movement of “looking East” just exoticizing Indian music? Is the whole experience of embracing 

classical Indian music part of inevitable globalization? (Such as how the Beatles incorporated 

aspects of Indian music into their mainstream music making the sounds more familiar and 

comfortable).
