Back To Timelessness | Anurag Kulkarni | TEDxSIBMBengaluru

Join the renowned Telugu Playback Singer Anurag Kulkarni delivering an inspiring talk on creating timeless art and the philosophy behind musical excellence. He shares his unique journey, from considering a career in software engineering to becoming a celebrated musician, exploring the connections between numbers and musical notes. Kulkarni discusses his innovative vocal modulation techniques inspired by the Mahabharata's diverse characters, and how his dual training under spiritual guru Shri Ganapati Satchidananda Swamiji and Hindustani classical master Pandit Kakunuri Jangaya shaped his artistic vision. He emphasizes that true innovation comes from deeply understanding musical traditions and adapting them thoughtfully, advocating for artists to focus on growth and refinement rather than chasing success, while creating work that transcends time. Anurag Kulkarni captivates audiences with his versatile renditions, delivering chartbusters like Sirivennela, Pilla Raa, and Ramulo Ramula. His impact spans Telugu and Tamil music, collaborating with legends like AR Rahman, Amit Trivedi, and Thaman S. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
