Manesh will be accompanied on Tabla by Revash Dookhi and Mridangam by Moganathan Chetty.
The inclusion of the Mridangam, a primary rhythmic accompaniment in Carnatic music from the South of India, beautifully adorns the Tabla and Kathak from the North.
Communicating through the universal language of music forms the core of this innovative offering layered with the challenging quest to extract Rasa -the essence of emotive states through percussive sounds whilst restraining the use of melody.
