Kerala’s 1st Music Village Kept Its Songs Alive for 2200+ Years

Kerala’s first Music Village stands as a rare example of living heritage, having preserved its songs and musical traditions for over 2,200 years. Passed down orally across generations, these melodies are woven into daily life, rituals, and community identity. The village isn’t just a place where music is performed—it’s where music is lived. Elders, families, and young learners all play a role in keeping the tradition alive. It’s history carried in voices rather than books.
