Re: Launching carnatictimes.com -- your kapi time companion
Wonderful interview nivedita and Dr Padma Sugavanam. Unfortunately I am assuming there are no more musicians who are nivedita's senior. She has to go in search of other schools in chennai . This phrase of Padma really touched me.
Padma is profound when she answers for Nivedita wrote: Music revolves around sound, and each language as its own unique sound, its own voice. So language and music, I believe, are finely intertwined as vehicles of expression. Knowledge of language allows for an appreciation of poetry and deeper expression – it adds to musicianship.

Quick suggestion , this article will be read for years. If possible can you insert a photograph of Padma and her Guru Seetha mami.

Re: Launching carnatictimes.com -- your kapi time companion
rajeshnat, I always ask my interviewees for photos with their gurus but in Padma's case this wasn't possible, sadly, due to circumstances beyond my control. Thanks very much for your suggestions though, and happy to act on them as much as I can -- they are useful!rajeshnat wrote:Nivedita

Re: Launching carnatictimes.com -- your kapi time companion
Remember that video of a little boy standing in an alley and singing a mesmerising Todi amid blaring horns from passing vehicles, that went viral in Carnatic music circles a few weeks ago? Almost 25 years after that video was shot, the boy -- brilliant as he is -- is not only a celebrated vocalist, but also has a high-flying corporate career.

kvchellappa sir, thank you!
arasi-ji, you are too kind, thank you!
thanjavooran sir, thank you very much! Too much pressure at work, coupled with a (now 18-month-old) toddler makes it a little difficult to find time for much else.
