Sri Nadabrahma Sangeetha Sabha has the practice of honouring a senior veena player with the title ‘Vainika Brahma’ every year in memory of Sangeetha Kalanidhi late Veena Doreswamy Iyengar. This year, Dr. Vijayaraghavan from Mysuru was honoured with this title in the presence of Modamani, senior art patron K.V. Murthy and D. Balakrishna, son of Doreswamy Iyengar. A veena-based programme ‘Vainika Vaibhava’ was also arranged as part of this programme.
