    Unpacking the Art of Konnakol with Maestro B.C. Manjunath

    ​The Beat is proud to present B. C. Manjunath, an extraordinary master of rhythm bridging ancient tradition and contemporary innovation. ​Representing the fourth generation of musicians in his family, B. C. Manjunath has been playing mridangam for over 35 years. His remarkable career has taken him to over 45 countries and iconic venues including Sydney Opera House, Queen Elizabeth Hall in London, and Jazz at Lincoln Center. A pioneering composer and innovator, Manjunath is renowned for discovering unique rhythmic cycles including the viral Fibonacci Tala, which NPR described as "mind-bending" and "gasp-worthy". His mastery spans Carnatic classical music, jazz, world music, and contemporary performance, making him one of the most versatile percussionists and konnakol practitioners of our time. In this episode of The Beat podcast, Manjunath delves into the captivating art of Konnakol, the unique vocal percussion language of South Indian Classical Music. The Essence of Konnakol: Konnakol is not merely a technique but a language that communicates rhythm without the need for instruments. Manjunath describes it as the echoing of the Mridangam, yet its depth stretches far beyond this definition. With a history spanning over 5,000 years, Konnakol serves as a bridge between musical ideas, allowing musicians to express complex rhythms vocally. Just as one learns a language by mastering its alphabets and sentences, Konnakol enables musicians to weave intricate rhythmic narratives using specific syllables.
