We live in the Richmond, Virginia area.

During a recent move the wax (melam) under the strings of our veena got melted out of shape, due to the heat inside the moving truck.

Any pointers to someone who can repair the melam on my veena, preferably in and around the D.C area, would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
NS

Please contact Vidushi. Ushachar of Nadataragni organization (www.nadatarangini.org) in Maryland.

She would know if Vidwan A V Kashinath is available this year. Typically, every year around April timeframe, Sri. Kashinath visits U.S. and travels around the country taking care of Veenas. He is the grandson of Vidwan Harmonium Arunachalappa who founded the famous Aruna Musicals in Bangalore.
