Here is a music video I recorded and edited with Ted Mason for Indian Raga Labs. This was my introduction to Indian classical music. Very fun to work with this talented group of young adults.

Indian Raga creates a community of instructors (Fellows) and students who work together to create accessible and commercially viable music rooted in classical and folk traditions. We pick Fellows – vetted by global experts, and match them to groups of students who co-create content that is relevant to audiences. Content is uploaded to the IndianRaga portal for crowd-sourced feedback. By inverting the instructor-led approach to a peer-peer learning experience, kids engage better with the art form.

Popularized by MS Subbulakshmi, ‘Bruhi Mukundethi’ is a Sadashiva Brahmendra composition. 2013 IndianRaga Fellow Harsha Nagarajan set it to a ragamalika in ragams Kurinji, Kapi, Nagaswarali, and Hamsanandi, in this unique interpretation. The piece is preceded by a Thani Avarthanam to showcase the brilliance of our young mridangists.
