Three generations to perform at Ganabharathi tomorrow

December 10, 2017

Mysuru: Ganabharathi has organised a unique Veena concert on Dec.11 at Veene Seshanna Bhavana in Kuvempunagar at 6 pm. It’s unique in the sense that artistes performing on the day are of three generations.

Karnataka Kalashree Vidu. M. K. Saraswathi along with her daughter Vidu. Rajyashree Josyer Srikanth and grand-daughter Aishwarya Manikarnika will be accompanied by Vid. A. S. N. Swamy on mridanga and Vid. Raghunandan Vyasa Rao on ghata.

Saraswathi, who hails from a rich musical lineage, was initiated into music at a young age by her musician mother Kamalamma, under the guidance of her father M. K. Srinivasa Iyengar.  Later, she received advanced training from Dr. Gowri Kuppuswamy, a renowned disciple of the legendary MLV, and from Veena Maestro M. J. Srinivasa Iyengar, a senior disciple of Veena Venkatagiriyappa who in turn was a direct disciple of the great Mysore Veene Seshanna.  Her musical heritage is well continued by her daughter Rajyashree Josyer, who is well-known  in India and Australia for both Vocal and Veena performances, and her son Vid. G. Venkatesha Josyer, a renowned Violinist.

Rajyashree Josyer is a profound and talented exponent of Karnatak classical music (Vocal).  Being trained under her mother she has also enthralled music-lovers in most of the major sabhas of the country and abroad. She imparts training to a number of young students in vocal music under “Sri Saraswathi School of Music.”

Being brought up in a musicians family, Aishwarya Manikarnika has a natural flare for music and is being trained in both vocal and veena. She has secured prize in AIR music competition and is  a recipient of CCRT scholarship.
