URGENT UPDATE ON KUTHIRAMALIKA CONCERTS 2006

The tragic and fatal accident to Shri. R. R. Varma, a member of the Travancore Family on 30th December 2005 has necessitated the switching of the Saraswathi Veena concert by Prince Rama Varma scheduled for the 7th January 2006 to the 11th January. Pandit Veerabhadriah Hiremath & Party kindly agreed to render Hindustani compositions of Maharaja Swathi Tirunal on 7th January instead of the 11th. The organizers are grateful to the artists including accompanists for the consideration and the lovers of music for their understanding.


The schedule for the Swathi Tirunal Sangeethotsavam 2006 is given below. This festival, exclusively dedicated to compositions of Maharaja Swathi Tirunal is held every year in January, at the Kuthiramalika Palace, in Thiruvananthapuram, built by the Maharaja himself, over 160 years ago. See below for the schedule and the invitation extended by the organizing committee.
