An Evening Of Bharathanatyam (M.L. Vasanthakumari, Srividya, K.N. Dhandayuthapani Pillai)

M.L.V as her initials suggest, Melody, Laya and Vidwat were the watchwords of her rare musical artistry that was a gorgeous aural feast to both lay and the cognoscents. She studied under GNB and her alapanas both Janaka and Janya, were all jewels of singular brilliance, infinitely etched in memories of privileged listeners. Srividya, her popular daughter, a Bharatnatyam exponent and a film artiste, chose a different field to exhibit her talent. Her expressive eyes dripped with Navarasas and she along with her mother and K.N. Dandayuthapani Pillai visualized this album that could prove a boom to all ensuing dancers. TRACK LISTING : 1.
