World-renowned carnatic violinist Lalgudi Vijayalakshmi is
the daughter and disciple of the great maestro Shri Lalgudi Jayaraman.
She has been performing regularly in violin duets and trios with her
father and brother since her debut at the age of thirteen. She has
traveled the world on concert tours and recently led an All Women
Instrumental Group performing the "Violin Venu Veena Ensemble" in over
13 cities in the U.S. Lalgudi Vijayalakshmi's devotion and discipline
and her retention of the purity of the music have led to many awards
including Sangeetha Choodamanai, Tantri Nada Mani, Kalki Krishanmoorthy
and Yuva Kala Bharathi.

Born into a family of musicians, Pravin Godkhindi
was fortunate to have his father Pandit Venkatesh Godkhindi, the
eminent vocalist and bansuri artiste as his first and only guru for the
flute. He gave his first public concert at the age of six and has since
then been balancing between traditional and creative music, including
western classical, jazz and carnatic classical. He was graded "A" by
All India Radio and TV at the age of twenty-one. Among his awards are
the titles Surmani, Aryabhatta and Kalanidhi. Pravin has performed in
jugalbandhi concerts with Pts. Kadri Gopalnath, Vishwa Mohan Bhatt,
Ajay Pohankar, Vidwan Mysore Nagaraj and Manjunath and others, and has
toured the U.S., Canada, Europe, Muscat and Qatar.
A.R. Bala Skandan is a performer/teacher of both carnatic violin and mridangam.
Charudatta Phadke,
the talented tabla player, had his initial training with Majgaokar and
Rajaram Jadhav and later under the guidance of Pt. Suresh Talwalkar. He
has toured in India and many European countries, accompanying a wide
range of artists including Pts. Suresh Talwalkar, Ulhas Kashalkar,
Birji Maharaj, and Ud. Shahid Parvez. He has also given numerous solo
concerts in India and abroad and has been honored with many awards,
including V.D. Paluskar and the Taalmani award. He has been an
important part of such projects as Beyond Fusion, Taalmala and world
peace and kathak projects with Chinese, Japanese and Indian groups.
