Description
Yakshagana boasts a unique musical tradition distinct from both Carnatic and Hindustani classical music. In Yakshagana performance, background music is presented by a group of special musicians along with dancers and dialogue delivery. The origin of Yakshagana is attributed to Naraharitirtha, a disciple of Madhvacharya in Udupi. Naraharitirtha served as a minister in the Kalinga Empire. The earliest documented evidence of Yakshagana is an inscription discovered in the Lakshminarayana temple at Kurugodu, Somasamudra in Bellary district, dated to 1556 AD.
