In the premises adjoining Sri Krishna Temple, under the aegis of Krishna Gana Sabha, there was a spectacular concert by none other than Mysuru’s very own musical prince Dr. Mysore M. Manjunath, his son and protege Vid. Sumant Manjunath with mesmerising percussion support from Vid. Tumkur B. Ravishankar and Vid. Giridhar Udupa. Past year has been tough on everyone and with hopes for better times, the Sabha organisers decided to honour the legendary violinist Sangeetha Kalanidhi T. Chowdiah (this year being his 125th birth year), affectionately known as Piteelu Chowdiah, by unveiling of a portrait of the maha Vidwan and a violin concert by the above team.
