A QUICK CHAT WITH SANGEETA KALA ACHARYA SULOCHANA PATTABHIRAMAN |
| Sulochana Pattabhiraman is one of the respected musicians in the Carnatic field today. She is known for her scholarly approach to music and has trained many a disciple. It is indeed fitting that the Music Academy recognise her service to the field by chosing her for the title of Sangeeta Kala Acharya. Carnatica congratulates her on this award and has a quick chat with her. |
| Guru(s): | Sattur Sri. A G Subramaniam, Sri. M A Kalyanakrishna Bhagavatar and Sri. Semmangudi Srinivasa Iyer are my respectable gurus. But my talent was brought to the fore by my guru Sri. N Balasubramanaim. |
| Favorite Vocalist(s): | My all-time favorite is M S Subbulakshmi. |
| Favorite Instrumentalist(s): | Lalgudi Jayaraman |
| Favorite Composer(s): | Tyagaraja and Papanasam Sivan, who is known as 'Tamizh Tyagaraja'. Of course I cannot but mention Syama Sastri and Purandaradasa. |
| Favorite Raga(s): | Todi the king of ragas. In handling this, nobody can hold a candle to the late M L Vasantakumari. |
| Favorite Venue(s): | Music Academy |
| Favorite Hobbies: | I have too many hobbies! I like reading books, watching cricket, mega-serials and tennis, and writing. Above all, I love to teach music. |
