Musician, activist, writer, and Magsaysay awardee, TM Krishna's latest book Sebastian and Sons: A Brief History of Mrdangam Makers is a tribute to the creators of the mrdangam, a percussion instrument that is fundamental to Carnatic music. It can be seen as an unabashed exploration of the workings of caste discrimination through the case study of the mrdangam.
