Subramaniam,
India’s violin icon, “The Paganini of Indian
Classical music”, “the God of Indian Violin”
is the serenity of an Indian musician combined
with the magnetism of a western “star”.
Constantly propelled from Singapore to Paris, from
Delhi to Los Angeles, he has conquered every
audience with the elegance and virtuosity of his
style.
L. Subramaniam's career as a childhood prodigy brought
him into contact with the greatest musicians and he
soon imposed himself as a master of the violin. At a
very young age, he was honoured with the title
“Violin Chakravarthy” (emperor of the violin).
No other musician can boast of such diverse
repertoire and collaborations, or even such
mind-boggling techniques. Till date, Dr. Subramaniam
has produced, performed, collaborated, conducted and
released over 150 recordings.
Dr. L. Subramaniam is the only musician who has
performed/recorded Karnatic Classical Music, Western
Classical Music, both Orchestral and non-Orchestral,
and also composed for and conducted major
Orchestras, collaborated with a wide range of some
of the greatest musicians, from different genres of
music including jazz, occidental, jugalbandis with
North Indian musicians, world music and global
fusion. He has established himself as a force that
is strongly Indian, but universal in nature and
approach.
His
insatiable musical curiosity made short shrift of
all kinds of technique, of all types of form (he has
composed for several western classical orchestras
and ballets) and of all new experiences (he was a
musical advisor to Peter Brook about the sound
concepts for his “Mahabharata”). He has composed
music for a select few films, including “Salaam
Bombay” and “Mississippi Masala” and was the
featured soloist for Bernardo Bertolucci’s
“Little Buddha” and “Cotton Mary” of
Merchant – Ivory Productions). This total
receptivity towards the world, this polymorphous
talent, this technical mastery all however find
their truest experience in the service of Karnatic
music, the tradition he has inherited from his
Father and Guru, Professor V. Lakshminarayana. Dr.
L. Subramaniam’s parents Prof V. Lakshminaryana
and V. Seethalakshmi were the driving force behind
their son and the reason he chose a life in music. |
