Congratulations to a truly birlliant Vainika Vidushi Dr Jayanthi Kumaresh . I was mentally thinking she will get it either this year or next year . Also to other awardees , they all deserve the award (Sugandha Kalamegham (Lovely vidushi from mainly DKJ School)/Trichur Narendran (he is been our forumite , sishya from Palakkad Raghu) , Injikudi (Our late Nageswaran would be super elated with Injikudi subramanian - nadaswaram) and TKVR (brilliant violinist from Trichy who plays usually in chennai during dec season ) and Dr Bala). Personally not heard Dr Bala at all, he is from Brinda Muktha school , few folks who attended his cleveland concerts have been super impressed with him . Hoping to hear Dr Bala soon

Jayanthi represents the sixth generation of a family of musicians.[12] She began formal study at age three with her mother, Lalgudi Rajalakshmi.[13][14] At thirteen she entered the Gurukul of her aunt, Vidushi Padmavathy Ananthagopalan, remaining there for twenty-two years,[14] and later studied with S. Balachander.[1]

She received further guidance from her maternal uncle, violinist Lalgudi Jayaraman, and from T. Brinda, T. R. Subramaniam, and Thanjavur Shankara Iyer.[2]
