UPCOMING MUSICAL EVENTS IN THE US
Kalki Diamond Jubilee Concert:
Kalki, the popular Tamil weekly will be celebrating its Diamond Jubilee in the US by sponsoring a concert at the Cleveland Tyagaraja Aradhana. The concert will be that of T M Krishna on April 27, and will contain a selection of compositions chosen both for their musical beauty as well as the story that goes with them. This carefully planned event will also contain brief anecdotes about the composition, composer or the music itself. It will be a fitting tribute to the late Kalki Krishnamurthy, who was acclaimed as a great storyteller himself.
