On her birth anniversary, the eminent musician M.S. Subbulakshmi (1916-2004) was commemorated, with tributes offered by Mandapaka Ravi, principal of Rotary Dasigi Perraju Music Academy, alongside musicians and students.
Mr. Ravi underscored Subbulakshmi’s global impact on Indian classical music, for which she received the Bharat Ratna and the Ramon Magsaysay Award in 1974. He advocated for parents and educators to inform children about her profound legacy. Her renditions of works such as Venkateswara Suprabhatam, Vishnu Sahasranamam, and Kanakadhara Stotram were specifically mentioned as continuing to resonate widely.
