Khanjira Gurooves

About This Event

Khanjira Gurooves is a masterful presentation of the khanjira, a single-handed frame drum from South India, featuring three expert khanjira artists: G Guru Prasanna, R. Karthik, Sunaad Anoor, who will be accompanied by Hemadri Srinivas on keyboards and Srikrishna Bhat on flute.

This performance showcases the versatility of the khanjira in its ability to transform through different avatars in terms of timbre, groove and intonation.

The heart of the concept lies in the artful creation of rhythmic patterns, known as nadai/groove, deeply rooted in the classical traditions of Carnatic music. Delve into intricate and mesmerizing rhythmic cycles that breathe life into the compositions, adding depth and complexity to the musical art form.
