Master Musicians from South India present a Classical Carnatic Music Concert on June 3, 2023 as part of the Arts Centre Chamber Music Series. They will perform compositions from the Musical Trinity of Carnatic music: Thyagaraja, Dikshathar and Shyama Sastri and others.
This instrumental concert features the electric guitar accompanied by the traditional South Indian percussion instruments kanjira (tambourine), ghatam (claypot), and vocal percussion. The musicians will improvise on a particular scale or raga and perform the main melody or kriti of the song. You will enjoy hearing the virtuosic performers bend the notes and make precise calculations of phrases in different rhythm cycles. There will also be percussion solos and call-and-response engagements between the musicians and audience.
Presented by University of Canterbury School of Music
