I am associated with a Trust called "Gaanapriya Foundation" through which, we are conducting different type of programmes connected with Carnatic Music. Instead of having regular concerts, we conducted Lecture demonstrations like every month. We conducted programme on Mallari; we conducted programmes on Dhikshiter krithis, Patnam Subramania Iyer krithis, programme on Padam and Jawali etc. We are also conducting the "Rasikapriya award" function every year on behalf of "Sangeethapriya.org"
This year's Rasikapriya award function will be held on 26th February at Thathvaloka auditorium, Eldams Road, Chennai at 8.00 P.M. Mr. Ramachandran, Mr. Govindan and Jaya TV are the recipient of the awards.
We are also honouring Mr. Sridharan Sankaran, Founder, moderator of Sangeethapriya.org with "Rasikas kaingaryamani award" recognising his tireless service in Sangeethapriya.org.
