Vocalist, Mrudangam
Initiated and trained early into carnatic music by his mother Smt Vasanta Easwaran, he pursued vocal music training from her teacher Smt Muthulakshmy Vedanarayanan in Mumbai. He simultaneously got the certificate training courses in Mridangam from Fine Arts society, Mumbai under the guidance of Shri K V Maniappan. Further interest in the art of playing mridangam led him to receive advanced training from Shri K Narayanaswamy which subsequently culminated in receiving training on advanced techniques in mridangam under the guidance of Shri Mannargudi Easwaran during his visits to New Zealand. He continues to further his interest in vocal music by receiving training from Mrs Yamini Ramesh in Chennai (Disciple of Padma Bhushan Shri Lalgudi Jayaraman).
He has been very fortunate to accompany legendary artists over the last few years, some of which include 'Sangeetha Kalanidhi' Shri A K C Natarajan (Clarinet), 'Sangeetha Kala Acharya' Shri T Venkataraman (Veena) & Kalaimamani Prof Smt S Rajeshwari (Vocal) during their musical visits to New Zealand.
