Dhvani – Veena Recital by Ramana Balachandhran
Ramana Balachandran, is a Vainika in the Carnatic music tradition. His prodigious talent was noticed when he was able to identify ragas and point out nuances at a very young age. He has been performing since the age of 12 and his music has always been simultaneously deep, subtle, complex, and emotive. Ramana started learning vocal music with his mother Sharanya Balachandran. He then learned Veena under Vidushi B Nagalakshmi (granddaughter of Karaikudi Sri Subbarama Iyer) for a period of three years and continues under his father Sri Balachandran. He also pursued Vocal from Sangita Kala Acharya, Smt. Neela Ramgopal, and Mridangam from Laya Kala Pratibha Mani, Sri Ranganatha Chakravarthy. Ramana has performed over 350 solo veena concerts in and outside India. His music and artistry is a sublime experience for rasikas across the board.
