this 20th century with a flourish and will usher the new century in
Indian music.
In the concert history of Indian music, L.Subramaniam is among
the few of the world's greatest musicians who have earned an
international reputation of complete, unmatched integrity.
L.Subramaniam, who has begun a new era in violin playing, executed by
his very individualistic, brilliant and masterful style, has become a
legend in his own time. The most respected and renowned Indian violinist
on the International scene, Subramaniam has been hailed by his critics
and connoisseurs alike as one of the greatest performers of all times.
"If there is any musician who has contributed towards the popularisation
of Karnatic (South Indian Classical) music in the West, it is violinist
L. Subramaniam" says a leading newspaper in the U.S.A.
