A parade of chenda players at a pooram festival in Kottarakara, Kerala. This was my first pooram festival and was intense. Dozens of musicians playing extremely long rhythmic cycles. 20 or so elephants ornately dressed. Fireworks. Frenzy. I have written about it at length in one of my India stories…check it out.
Kottarakara, 2003
