Techie percussionist Erickavu N. Sunil pens a unique book that delineates the science and aesthetics of the mridangam
When his prospective guru in higher studies asked Erickavu N. Sunil to present his talent, the teenager played the mridangam with reasonable confidence. “You have a good timbre and command over speed, but the fingering needs rework,” said Mavelikkara Velukutty Nair. The response hurt the boy, but he remained tenacious. In Thiruvananthapuram, 120 km south of his village near Haripad in Alappuzha district, Sunil knew he had found his mentor. “I was only 15 then, just out of school. Yet I had already been learning the mridangam for a decade,” he recalls. “My new teacher made me begin from scratch.”
