Making Indian classical music relevant to the contemporary | Manasi Prasad | TEDxHyderabad
Manasi Prasad connects us to our roots by infusing the beauty of music from different times to present day creating relevance for us to understand it nuances better. Her musical talk takes us through the harmonious tunes of tradition woven into a modern context. She tells us how her passion drove her to choose Carnatic classical music, over a high flying corporate job and what are her visions for classical music. She highlights the importance once again of “following your heart”
Manasi wears many hats, successfully. She is the mother of a feisty two year old, an engineer with a degree in Information Science, a management graduate from IIM Bangalore, the project director of India's first experiential music museum, a TED fellow and above all - a musician. Despite so many achievements, music is what defines Manasi. It is her first love, passion, dream and life. A trained musician in classical Carnatic music and a performing artist for the past 15 years, she has travelled the world through music. Manasi left behind a job at the prestigious Wall Street to pursue her passion - music. She makes music more relevant in the modern context and and is now working towards binding all boundaries through music.

She is a good speaker and a demonstrator of Indian Classical music.
The best part was the last. Well done Manasi. The personal sacrifice you have made for Indian traditional music is very big. I think the opportunity is to get Carnatic music to the masses and films/movies is one approach towards this. May god bless you and your family.
Long live our classical music🎶🎤🎵🎶🎼.. Long live Mansis..taking legacy to different levels 👍👍
Beautiful sharing.. motivational learning 🙏🙏🙏
I'm gonna download it
Loved the talk, I totally believe that all three forms of Indian Classical Music, Hindustani Classical, Odissi Classical and Carnatic Classical Music should be taken mainstream for them to continue to flourish and remain relevant to the new gen. But the singing at the end of the talk was a big let down. Off tune at places and unfortunately unnecessary.
Who said indian classical music is irrelevant to the contemporary
wow I'm first.

If our legacy is really so good, why do we have to change the very core of it i.e. devotion?
The lady has very good intension but she is still underestimating the dumbness of the contemporary
Your presentation exposes how music history is ill.informed. Before Natyasastra, tamil chaturattam, tamil pan(music) etc are tge oldest in India.

Do something about it if you can, instead of whining on every forum. Anyway, please learn to quote authentic sources to back your unverified claims. If you remain in that eternal victim/complainer mode, it'll do no good to you or to your culture. You'll only remain a cynic. I respect the heritage of any culture including the Tamil one. But, to just claim that we are the forefathers of everything good does not help anyone.

@@nagarjunaytreg tamil music amd dances Silapathikaram in Tamil is the source. 🤣🤣🤣 I know you are one of those educated illiterates.. suffering with incurable illusory truth disease! You believe lies when you feel too vulnerable to allow the truth and its consequences to manifest in your life. When truth does emerge, you often feel terribly betrayed and you can lose faith in your own ability to make good judgments. To protect against this pain, you sometimes continue lying to yourselves long after reality seems unavoidable. If you read Thirukural and practice it you may be cure from the disease.
