A treat for the ears at the Music room as part of the Indika 2025 festival; Presented my Milap
Carnatic (South Indian classical) music like never before.
“A Carnatic Quartet brings together four trailblazing artists – Shreya Devnath (violin), Mylai M Karthikeyan (nadhaswaram), Praveen Sparsh (mridangam), and Adyar G Silambarasan (thavil) – in a powerful exploration of sound, tradition, and collaboration.
Curated by violinist Shreya Devnath, Together is a bold musical conversation between four instruments that rarely share the stage. The melodic grace of the violin meets the raw, majestic voice of the nadhaswaram; the intricate rhythms of the mridangam blend with the explosive energy of the thavil. Each instrument brings with it its own world – distinct histories, styles, and cultural roots – yet in this quartet, they unite to create something wholly unique.”
This wasn’t just a concert. It was a celebration of the Carnatic tradition – unfiltered, unbound, and alive with possibility.
