[00:01.080]--- Lesson 42 Not very musical
[00:08.680]--- First listen and then answer the question.
[00:14.840]--- What happened when the sake charmer began to play jazz?
[00:22.720]As we had had a long walk through one of the markets of old Delhi, we stopped at a square to have a rest.
[00:32.880]After a time, we noticed a snake charmer with two large baskets at the other side of the square, so we went to have a look at him.
[00:44.600]As soon as he saw us, he picked up a long pipe which was covered with coins and opened one of the baskets.
[00:55.680]When he began to play a tune, we had our first glimpse of the snake.
[01:02.960]It rose out of the basket and began to follow the movements of the pipe.
[01:09.920]We were very much surprised when the snake charmer suddenly began to play jazz and modern pop songs.
[01:20.200]The snake, however, continued to 'dance' slowly.
[01:25.880]It obviously could not tell the difference between Indian music and jazz!
