Navneeth Sundar, a composer and
pianist from Chennai, has recently
discovered that the touch screen
provided by the Apple iPad can be used
to perform different kinds of music,
including Carnatic music (South Indian
Classical Music). The app used in this
performance is “Animoog” created
by “Moog Music Inc”. This particular
patch, created by Navneeth himself
on the app, is specific to a particular
ragam or scale, which in this case is the
ragam Desh and its parameters can be
tweaked to suit other ragams, which
makes it possible to explore the myriad
dimensions and expressions there are,
in Classical Carnatic music.
Pranaams to Shri. Lalgudi G. Jayaraman,
the legend, whose Desh Thillana
composition we’ve performed here.
