Description
Explore the beauty of Jyotsna Srikanth's South Indian violin on this sensitively crafted collection of Carnatic music. Adept at playing in many styles, Jyotsna's elastic approach imbues her classical playing with a fresh energy that summons listeners to discover the elegant musical traditions of her home; this is her 'Call of Bangalore'.
Carnatic music from the south of India is renowned for its naturally melodic form. Jyotsna Srikanth's music is woven through with this aesthetic; her artful violin soars in gayaki style (as if sung), punctuated by percussionists Patri Satish Kumar and N. Amruth on mridangam (double-sided drum) and khanjira (clay pot) respectively.
Jyotsna hails from Bangalore, the capital of the state of Karnataka. Her music, like her home city, is full of eclecticism and revelling in the collision of old and new. On this album Jyotsna concentrates on a collection of Carnatic classical music showcasing works by some of its greatest composers. Yet via a host of other projects, Jyotsna is equally as likely to be found jamming with her fiddle in free jazz, folk fusion or even rock forms.
