Good Effort Mrs.Radha Bhasker.

I have heard a lec-dem on RTP by TNS three years back and what a fabulous one that was. I always felt that more people should listen to this and here you have provided an opportunity !

[radha bhaskar]

I am glad to inform that my first DVD on Music Appreciation will be released on 19th February during our National Conference on Music Appreciation. This is an edited version of my live music workshop that was held in the Embassy of India, Muscat a few months back.
