Indira Mami was a reputed carnatic teacher in Kolkata for many decades and has trained scores of disciples in Kolkata. A very simple, humble, gentle lady who carries her vidwat very lightly on her shoulders. Young vocalist Aiswarya Sankar was a disciple of Indira Mami before she settled in Chennai. It is sad that Mami lost her life partner immediately after settling in Chennai. Appreciate Indira Mami for her decision to start the Trust and serve the cause of music through the Trust. Wish the Trust all success in its endeavours.

Very good to hear about this concert, and about the trust. Musical sharing of this kind with fellow raasikAs is appreciated no end.

Parivadini covering it, the venue, and SugunaV to the accompaniment of viNA, all making it special.

vINA is, along with other instruments getting more slots at the Academy, if I'm not mistaken ( I gathered by quickly going over their schedule)?

Wishing SUNAADAALAHARI and the trust a continued presence...

Aishwarya, I had missed this thread, and didn't know about the trust. Good work!

Was hoping to be at RS Hall today, but could not make it.

Sad that Smt Vedavalli is unable to sing as scheduled: hope that concert will be held another day.

Mami is recovering now. It is our blessing that mami has accepted to perform in our trust. We will schedule her concert on a suitable date for her.
