Sudha Raghunathan Mini Carnatic Vocal Online Virtual Concert


Richmond Rasikas is proud to announce a Carnatic vocal concert by Sudha Raghunathan, as part of their 2021 Mini Online Concert Series. Sudha Raghunathan is one of the brightest stars of Carnatic music in India, her distinctly stunning vocal style has ignited musical imagination and spirit across languages, frontiers, and ideologies. 








As a prominent vocalist in the Carnatic musical tradition, Sudha Ragunathan’s voice enthralls listeners from around the world. Among the first in her generation to receive many prestigious awards including the Padmabhushan and the Sangita Kalanidhi, her mastery over vocal techniques and complicated styles makes her one of the most sought-after artists. Her authentic renditions of ‘krithis’ and refined elaborations of ‘ragas, the élan with which she breezes through the ‘Kalpana swaras’, her command over the octaves, and her supremely confident stage presence combined with unstated humility has given her an enviable pre-eminence in the world of Carnatic music. Sudha has performed a range of concerts and festivals worldwide and has released over 200 albums with leading recording companies like AVM, INRECO, Vani, and Amutham. She is a top-ranking artist for Prasar Bharati, All India Radio, and the Doordarshan, and was the auspicious voice at the first live broadcast at the National Program Series of concerts hosted in Chennai. Sudha also has the unique honor of rendering ‘Vande Mataram’ at the Central Hall of Parliament, New Delhi on 27th January 2000 to mark the completion of 50 years of the free Indian Republic.

Event Canceled: Aruna Sairam Carnatic vocal

Event Canceled : In light of the growing concern around COVID-19, artist has canceled the concert.

We apologize for any inconvenience but we needed to prioritize the health and safety of our community.




Sangeetha Kalanidhi Aruna Sairam (also spelled Sayeeram) is an Indian classical vocalist. She is a recipient of the Padma Shri award from the Government of India and has been elected as Vice Chairman of the Sangeet Natak Akademi (India's premier national institution for music and dance) by the Government of India. In 2011, Aruna was the first Carnatic musician to perform at the The BBC Proms (more formally known as The Henry Wood Promenade Concerts) in London. Padma Shri Aruna Sairam has been selected for the Sangita Kalanidhi award, the highest recognition in Carnatic music, this year. This year’s award is a thumping validation of Sairam’s prodigious musical spectrum. Apart from her classical Carnatic core, she has managed to embrace various other genres of music, including the Marathi abhang and the bhajan. She has brought in many innovations in the repertoire of concerts and is known to be a bold experimenter in pushing the borders of performance strategies. She was the first to introduce the Abhang, a distinctive folk music form from Western India, into a traditional southern Indian Carnatic concert. Apart from her core Music, Aruna sings in 14 different Indian languages as well as in French, German, Latin and Italian. Her style is rooted in tradition, yet continues to evolve.
