Introducing the Mridangam: Videos and Illustration

We're getting ready for a fun master class on Indian Percussion with Dr. Rohan Krishnamurthy on March 8! For an introduction to his primary instrument, the mridangam, Dr. Krishnamurthy took some time from his busy performance schedule to record a couple of quick impromptu videos with Lessonface when he was in NYC in December 2013.

Here they are from the Lessonface Youtube channel, for your viewing pleasure.
