Is the house where Sri Vasudevachrya lived in Mysore accessible to public?
IF anyone knows, can he/she let me know the details? I plan to visit mysore shortly, and I would like to see his house/museum/ any place dedicated to him.
Sri Vaasudevacharya's house in Mysore?

I doubt as it was in old agrahara, it may not exist. But there is a Sangeetha Kalanidhi Mysore K. Vasudevacharya Bhavan on Jhansi Lakshmibai Road, where music concerts are regularly held. You may approach the authorities there, for help in this regard.
Here is an interesting anecdote:
Acharya's birth anniversary on May 28 was celebrated by World Space /Shruti by a special program with R.K. Padmanabha ( who recently has brought out a set of 21 music cassettes of Acharya's compositions presented by eminent vocalists) and Acharya's 80 year old grandson S.Krishna Murthy.
S.Krishna Murthy reminisces:
With Mysore always being a musical hub, Vasudevacharya's house became a regular stopover for musicians passing thro'. Right from CHEMBAI VAIDYANATHA BHAGAVATAR, G.N.Balasubramaniam, M.S.Subbulakshmi , they all stopped by and S.Krishna Murthy grew up on their animated debates on Music. As a child he often sneaked up to full flow listening wide -eyed to their conversations.
