E10 Shruthi Rajasekar’s Fascinating Position
Manage episode 273404403 series 2618498
Shruthi Rajasekar is a composer from Minnesota USA who straddles the worlds of Western contemporary music and south Indian Carnatic music from a truly unique position. Having grown up in the US with prominent Carnatic musician Nirmala Rajasekar as a mother, Shruthi is a joy to talk with as we cover:
- Choral culture and education in the US vs UK
- How the pandemic is actually improving conversations around pieces in the rehearsal process
- Shruthi’s experience at SOAS and RNCM
- We also get super into the weeds discussing how despite its insane cross-rhythms, Carnatic music never changes time signature – plus how Shruthi breaks those rules in her piece, Numbers.
