with a heaviest heart, saddened and staying thousands of miles away, I regret to inform that a great human being and my beloved guru mrudhanga vidhvAn Palladam Shri V.Ramachandran Sir had passed on 11th September. He was 84. I had studied mrudangam initially from Sri Palladam Sir only. Renowned artiste Palladam SrI R. Ravi is his son.
