Talk & Performance by Classical Violinist Sumanth Manjunath, accompanied by percussionist Ganesh Murali Iyer
In the Indian Classical Music tradition, music reflects Nature's rhythms, patterns and cycles. New Acropolis invites you for an evening of Music and Philosophy where Violinist and Carnatic musician Sumanth explores this deep connection. Through a talk and performance, we will explore how our own human conversations have a rhythm; and how certain classical ragas are not just inspired by nature, but in a sense, are able to communicate with nature. The evening will conclude with a specially composed performance created for the mood and rhythm of the evening time.
Born into a lineage of Carnatic masters, Sumanth carries forward a rich musical legacy, blending tradition with modern sensibilities. He was trained in the illustrious Mysore violin lineage by his grandfather Sri Mahadevappa, uncle Violin Maestro Vidwan Mysore Nagaraj and his father Violin Maestro Dr. Mysore Manjunath. He has performed at the Rashtrapati Bhawan and conducted masterclasses at prestigious universities such as Oxford & Cambridge, U.K. He will be accompanied by acclaimed percussionist Ganesh Murali Iyer, a senior disciple of Mridangam maestro Shri Padmavibushan Umayalpuram Sivaraman. Ganesh also recently performed with Ed Sheeran.
