Carnatic Links
| Learn from Neyveli Santhanagopalan |
|
Neyveli Santhanagopalan needs no introduction to Carnatic listeners. He is well known for singing with bhakti, laya, bhAva, along with the elements to make the music more enjoyable... His concerts of early 90s still ring in my ears. He happens to be a good guru as well and he regularly visits other countries outside India and provides personalized attention to the remote students...
Interested students are encouraged to contact him. His contact details are at: http://www.neyveli.indiamusicinfo.com/contact.htm |
