Shreyas Sunday Kutcheri in the Park

Sundaram Finance organises Mikeless Kutcheri at  Nageswara Rao Park

As part of the monthly Sunday Kutcheri in the Park organised by Sundaram Finance on the first Sunday of every month, 14 year old Shreyas Murali, student of Guru G Ravikiran, presented a vocal Carnatic music Kutcheri this morning between 7am and 8am at the chess square of the Nageswara Rao Park in Mylapore.

Accompanied on the Violin by C. S. Chinmayi and on the Mirudangam by R. Vinoth, Shreyas presented compositions that included Sriman Narayana (Bowli – Adi), Teliya Leru Rama  (Dhenuka – Adi), Evvari Maata  (Kamboji – Adi) and  Maithreem Bhajata (Ragamalika – Adi).

P Viswanathan, Company Secretary, Sundaram Finance Ltd., presented certificates and mementos to the artistes. 

The Mikeless Kutcheri at the Nageswara Rao Park was launched in February 2006. Around 1400 children have been part of the Kutcheri over the last 14 years. The idea of the Sunday Kutcheri in the Park is to provide opportunities to young budding talent aged below 15 years to present in front of an informal park audience amidst chirping birds and falling leaves. Mikes and speakers are not used at the Kutcheri in the Park.

Sundaram Finance conducts audition to select the artistes to present the Mikeless Kutcheri. For details, email: sundaykutcheri@sundaramfinance.in
