April 8th marks the 87th birth anniversary of the great musician-musicologist-scholar-composer, the legendary Sangita Kalanidhi Dr.

Manasa Guruguha - Anandabhairavi - Muttuswami Dikshitar

Kanugonu Sowkhyamu - Nayaki - Tyagaraja

Devi Brova - Chintamani - Shyama Shastri

Varalenduko - Gurjari - Tyagaraja

Shri Vishwanatham - Chaturdasha Ragamalika - Muttuswami Dikshitar
