About my books

Dear Friends,

Writing about music can be as engaging as singing itself.

I have had the fortune of meeting several great maestros and scholars over a period of time.

The common listener generally knows either the glorious side or the flip side of the musicians.

I have tried to portray the human side, struggle and the socio-cultural relevance of music and musicians.

My two books tittled SWARASANNIDHI and BHARATARATNA PT.BHIMSEN JOSHI NAAVU NEEVU KANDANTE  has caught the imagination of the readers.

Here is a press review of the same by young musician/critic Dr. K.S. Vaishali.

Welcome to my realm of music

Dear Music Lovers, Namaskar.

It has been a long pending desire for me to share my musical pedigree, journey, experiences and interaction.  As of today, our traditional music is beyond artificial boundaries,. The media/technology revolution has shrunk the world, but the depth and vastness of our music has remained the same.  This may sound like an oxymoron.  As we start sharing, we'll explore the synchronized journey of modern era and ancient music.
