Rhythmica came into existence in July 2002. The concept was modest and simple:
Singers would sing, instrumentalists would play on their instruments, and if something presentable came
out, they would perform before the IISc audience. More than 16 years after its birth, Rhythmica is now
over 30 program old. Despite the elitists’ occasional insinuations of Rhythmica clinging on to a beaten
film-music orchestra format, Rhythmica has been able to deliver an unparalleled width of music. Ranging
from Indian classical (both Hindustani and Carnatic) to Western; from Rock to Jazz to Blues; from
western
country music to Indian folk; from Vedic tunes to home-brewed self-composed scores; from the early 20th
century classics to the chartbusters of the currently running year – Rhythmica has succeeded in covering
it all. What makes Rhythmica click with the IISc crowd? ‘Rhythmica plays for the crowd!!!’.
