Hailing from Bangalore and now based in London, Jyotsna Srikanth is Europe’s foremost South Indian Carnatic violinist, renowned for her versatility, innovation, and technical mastery. An extraordinary and versatile violinist (★★★★ The Guardian) Jyotsna Srikanth presents and explores the lush green melodic possibilities in the Carnatic genre. Carnatic is another name for South Indian Classical music; a musical form that has seen few changes for centuries and that has steadily adapted itself from the temple music form to its current comprehensive system that has spread across continents. Captivating audiences with the intricate aesthetics and technical nuances of the Carnatic tradition, as interpreted through her innovative approach to the Western violin. (World Music Central) Her music illuminates Carnatic musical tradition in kaleidoscopic colour. Approaching every musical interaction with a forward-thinking outlook and elastic expressivity, Jyotsna is just as likely to be found reveling in raga rotations or jamming in free jazz, often marrying the two. Jyotsna Srikanth will be presenting a traditional, unspoilt and orthodox form of Carnatic music along with Abhiram Sahathevan on mridangam (two-sided drum) and Ram Sivasubramaniam on khanjira (one sided drum). A demonstration of Indo-jazz with a southern slant at its finest. (★★★★ Jazzwise) Information Source: Asian Arts Agency | eventbrite
