Nadabrahma Sangeetha Sabha, Mysuru, has cultivated the practice of honouring a senior musician with the title ‘Nadabrahma’ every year in the month of January. In the search to recognise young talents it also conducts ‘Nadakishorotsava’ and the winner is entitled for the title ‘Nadakishora’ or ‘Nadakishori’ on the occasion.
This year, senior vocalist R.K. Padmanabha was chosen for the ‘Nadabrahma’ title. Shreya Kolattaya from Puttur was the winner of ‘Nadakishorotsava’ and was conferred the title ‘Nadakishori’ on the 6th of January. As is the practice, she also presented a Karnatak concert on the previous day.
