Dublin is all set to host an Indian classical music night performed by musicians from the South Indian state Kerala in the coming month. The musical night will take place at Dundrum’s dlr Mill Theatre on Monday 5th June from 6 pm to 8:30 pm.

The event will be lead by All IndianRadio’s ‘A’ Grade artiste Vishnudev Namboothiri.

He has also received advanced training from Sri.Chandramana Narayanan Namboothiri and Sri.Neyveli Santhanagopalan, and currently undergoes expert training with Sri. P.S.Narayanaswamy.

Violin : VVS Murari
VVS Murari, son & disciple of violin Maestro Sri VV Subrahmanyam, is a contemporary artist with an uncompromising adherence to perfection, tradition, and discipline. He owns a charm of having seasoned his talent by accompanying his father for many prestigious concerts with privileged opportunities of sharing concert stages with maestros at an age. Murari’s uniqueness is explicit in his lucid raga essaying which softly penetrates into the souls of the listeners.

Mridangam : V Balaji
Balaji, who is presently an ‘A’ Grade artist in The All India Radio, Chennai, had his initial training under late Sri B. Doraiswamy of Trivandrum, Sri K.Krishna Iyengar of Trivandrum, Trivandrum Sri R. Vaidyanathan and later had his tutelage under the legendary Vidwan Padmasri Sangeetha Kalanidhi Palghat Sri R. Raghu. Apart from accompanying Carnatic artists, he is also a much sought-after Mridangist in the Cinema Industry and has worked with famous music directors like Mr. Vidyasagar, Mr. Deva, Mr. Haris Jayaraj and others.
