Music
SubramaniamIndia “I find nothing more inspiring than the music making of my very great colleague Subramaniam. Each time I listen to him, I am carried away in wonderment.” Yehudi Menuhin
India’s ‘violin icon’ Dr L Subramaniam combines the serenity of an Indian musician with the magnetism of a Western star. A pioneer in exploring fusions between European classical music, American jazz, rock and south Indian music, Subramaniam has collaborated with a wide range of international artists. He toured America and Europe with Ravi Shankar and ex-Beatle George Harrison in 1974, and has made recordings with Yehudi Menuhin, Stephane Grappelli and Herbie Hancock. Not only is he an outstanding Indian classical violinist, but also an accomplished composer who has created works for some of the world’s great orchestras, including the New York Philharmonic. This violin virtuoso will perform for one night only, accompanied by two Indian percussionists. Violin - Dr L Subramaniam
