Swetharanyam sisters

Post by mathe-kamas »

I have been recently hearing about the Swetharanyam sisters (Nithya/Vidya). I googled for info about them, could not find any. Anyone knows who they are, their Gurus etc.? I am mainly interested because the Cleveland Aradhana people are planning to use them as teachers for the Sampradaya group and I have signed up my daughter for this.

THEY are the chief disciples of Late Tiruvengadu Jayaraman the ONE GENUINE STUDENT OF MMI & had spent almost his entire life with him. He was famous for his Begada! Currently they are studying with R.K.Sriramkumar & R.K.Srikantan. They truly represent the MMI School best. They also teach music in Chennai. While they are not the popular rage like many others their knowledge & music is well grounded in Classicism which is a rare trait now a days! VKV

cacm,
Thanks for your post. Are they singing anywhere in Chennai during the season? Wonder if any of you, main volunteers of Cleveland know of a concert where they can be heard. Thanks.

Will miss you in Chennai :(
