Ruairi Glasheen | A Journey Through the World of KANJIRA in Chennai - HIDDEN DRUMMERS of INDIA: Part 3 @bodhran | Uploaded September 2020 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
HIDDEN DRUMMERS of INDIA is a three part documentary series on YouTube that explores the world of Carnatic music, and in particular India’s most awesome drum, the kanjira!

During the summers of 2018 and 2019 I spent several weeks traveling through the southern states of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu where I met with the most incredible players and immersed myself in the Carnatic tradition.

In part three of Hidden Drummers of India I travel to the coastal city of Chennai, which is the 4th biggest city in India. I meet with senior kanjira artist Shree Sundar Kumar, known as the kanjira man and then with two more incredible kanjira artists Anirudh Athreya and Harihara Sharma. Each taught me a lot about the past, present and future of the kanjira, and the Carnatic music tradition

Check out the AWESOME Kanjira Quartet!
