It is had to believe that Carnatic music was once considered a man's world. There were hardly any vocalists or accompanists, much less percussionists, of the fairer gender until the arrival of the triumvirate of M.S. Subbulakshmi, D.K. PaTTammaL, and M.L. Vasanthakumari pioneered a revolution of sorts. Today, Carnatic music has been enriched and embellished by many famous woman vocalists who have earned the respect and admiration of their male peers and the discerning audience. However, there continues to be at least one accompaniment that is still considered a male bastion - the mridangam. To this day, it is a rare opportunity to witness a female mridangist holding her own in a Carnatic music concert, even in India.
