Shri R Krishnaswamy, Sangita vidwan and one among the ace disciples of Semmangudi Srinivasa Iyer is a teacher non parallele . He handled the 'Sangita Paatham' (music lessons) in All India Radio, Trivandrum for several years -perhaps till his retirement - and now leading a calm life with his son at Trivandrum.
He is adored by many who have been benefited by his authentic handling of music lessons over the AIR and has taught some great compositions including Pancharatna kriti-s, Navaavarana kritis, Navaratri kriti-s and a host of kriti-s of Kerala composers besides several kriti-s of the trinity. He has popularized many Tamil kriti-s of T Lakshmanan Pillai.
The lessons which enjoyed similar popularity was Sri Voleti Venkateswarulu's classes over AIR Vijayawada .
Shri R Krishnaswamy continues to be a beacon for knowledge seekers in music.
Vidwan R. KRISHNASWAMY, Trivandrum.

Sivaramakrishnan - do you have any audio/video clips of this vidwan?
Many years ago, one Shri Krishnaswamy used to teach carnatic music on Tvm radio. Not sure if this is the same person.
