Sankritilaya is pleased to announce Fall 2009 concert tour by the Hyderabad brothers, Shri Seshachary and Shri Raghavachary, accompanied by Shri Nagai Sriram on the violin and by Shri J. Vaidhyanathan on the Mridangam.
About the Artists:
The renowned Hyderabad Brothers, Shri Raghavachary and Shri Seshachary, hail from an orthodox family. They underwent a systematic initial training from their father, Sahitya Vidwan Daroor Rathnamacharyulu and their mother Sulochana Devi. They later perfected the art under Vidwan Susarla Sivaram at the Government College of Music and Dance in Hyderabad. They complement each other in knowledge and have voices that blend. Their phenomenal success is due to their grip over Shruthi, Laya, and Sahithya Bhava, in addition to the rich and varied repertoire they have. The brothers also perform solo, particularly for All India Radio, but believe that their complementary skills and voices produce music that is invigorating and exciting. They have toured all over the world and have to their credit, numerous commercial recordings that are a popular favorite at record stores. The brothers were nominated as the Asthana Vidwans of the Kanchi Kamakoti Peetham and are they recipients of several awards.
