music concerts................


‎" The music of the ancient world, was a worship of the heart, offered to the all embracing core of adoration. In it, every particle of our body sings and there is an interim fusion of the tones of the particles, somany micro-micro tones, that it becomes a continuous music in us and was hence treated as the richest heritage of a living person – Brihadaranyaka Upanishad

The musician


Sri Anandnadh underwent advanced training in Carnatic Violin and Carnatic Vocal with the legendary violinist Sri Lalgudi G. Jayaraman and his son Sri Lalgudi GJR Krishnan for about 10-12 years in the Gurukula system. He has also graduated in Indian Music from the University of Madras and has performed on the violin during various occasions at different places as an accompanist as well as a soloist.
Different regional television channels have telecasted his concerts. Smt. Bombay Jayashri, Smt. Geetha Bennet, Dr. Omanakutty, Mr. Sreyas Narayun, Mr. Suryaprakash, Mr. M.K. Sankaran Namboothiry, Jaya (Vijaya) are just a few to mention among the leading artists for whom he has accompanied on the Violin. Above all, Shri Anandnadh has the credit of teaching Carnatic Violin and Vocal over a period of two decades in various reputed institutions in India and abroad.  

From Violin legend and maestro Sri Lalgudi Jayaraman…..
 “Anandnadh studied with me in the Gurukula system--residing in the home of the Guru imbibing the nuances of the art form He was a dedicated student very keen who came to us with a good music background and continued to learn this art form to the fullest extent. In Camatic Violin playing in the South India, the Lalgudi style of playing is considered to be traditional, innovative, vibrant and a judicious blend of musicianship and technique. This style was created by me and this is passed on by me or my son only to a chosen few deserving spirants amongst whom Swami Ananda Nadayogi is one. He later went on to obtain degree in Indian Music, especially Camatic music from the University of Madras, India. He is a versatile violinist and vocalist of Carnatic Music and will be a great asset to any Carnatic Music institution. He is an adept performer and a teacher who enjoys teaching.  He brings with him the experience of teaching students in India and Singapore. He can provide training for beginners to advanced level students learn this culturally unique art form of India offering classes in both vocal music and violin. I wish him all the success” - Lalgudi G. Jayaraman.
