Carnatic Vocal Concert by Shri. Sanjay Subramanian
Richmond Rasikas is proud to announce a Carnatic vocal concert by Shri. Sanjay Subramanian, as part of their 2014 Spring Concert Series.
Shri. Sanjay Subramanian is one of the most established performing vocalists of our times. Sanjay has held his own in the field for well over two decades. He is one musician who has achieved an envious balance between two seemingly paradoxical elements, with a style that is as classical in content as it is unorthodox in execution.
