Music is in the air and I devour every article, review that happens to pass before my eyes. Music season has already started and through Sanjay Subramaniam's blog (www.sanjaysub.blogspot.com), I came to know that Mr.V. Sriram is blogging ( http://sriramv.wordpress.com/) away actively on the music season focused mostly on the early morning lec-dems at the Academy. I had a fill of that today and am totally caught up with what has happened over the last few days. A good dose of history and priceless context for the great and ancient art of the world!
Recently, I had also come across an article in the Mint magazine (http://www.livemint.com/Articles/2008/12/12234510/Carnatic-music-now-in-new-medi.html) and I stumbled upon a young student in the US (Mr. Sai Prasad Viswanathan) who has been contributing to a database of the compositions of the Trinity which has several compositions sung by several illustrious legends. A great reference and an inspiring benchmark.
Here are the links:
