Raaga Music Academy is presenting Vid. N.R. Prashanth, a renowned vocalist on its monthly music programme on Saturday, the 20th at 5.30pm, at Prajna Kuteera Ayurveda Centre, Kuvempunagar.
Prashanth’s tutelage began with Vid. R.K. Padmanabha, a teacher, composer and performer of great repute. He also had useful stints with greats like Vid. Titte Krishna Iyengar and Vidu. Neela Ramgopal, who honed his musical skills. The doyen of Karnatak Music Prof. R. Visweswaran is guiding him now. An engineering graduate, Prashanth is known for his innovative approach, discrete and measured use of gamakas and control over laya. His Eka Raga concerts are also very popular, which he performs with aplomb.
