Ruairi Glasheen | HIDDEN DRUMMERS of INDIA: Part 1 -Documentary about MUSIC in INDIA, CARNATIC RHYTHM and the KANJIRA @bodhran | Uploaded August 2020 | Updated October 2024, 2 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 one of Hidden Drummers of India, I’m in Bengaluru where I was based for a large portion of my first trip in 2018 and features the following incredible musicians in order of appearance:
