A directory that goes beyond musicians

Ranjani Govind

Sudhindra’s labour of love includes music shops, dubbing units

Bangalore: Does the world of Carnatic music sometimes feel like a vast ocean where nothing is easily accessible? Well, don’t worry for help is at hand. Mridanga artiste H.S. Sudhindra has brought out the fourth edition of Directory of Karnatak Musicians, a kind of community service for the musical fraternity.

In fact, the information bank has a startling 2,800 listings in all, spread over nearly 60 categories.

That the book is not just for getting addresses of musicians is clear enough when you flip through its 170 pages that list addresses and information on music shops, libraries, photographers, sabhas, sound systems, studios, dubbing units, travel agents and musicologists. Want to know the festivals where one can look forward to a string of concerts? Just go through the "Concerts during festivals"
