Sep 16,2010 - 94th Birth anniversary of Smt. M S Subbulakshmi

Sep 16, 2010 was the 94th birth anniversary of Smt. M S Subbulakshmi.

The Hindu and Saregama India (formerly HMV) established ‘The Hindu Saregama M.S. Subbulakshmi Award' in her honor.

"The award, in the name of the legendary musician, will be presented annually to a promising Carnatic vocalist.

A jury comprising eminent musicians and art critics will select the recipient based on the artist's performances during the year, particularly those during the ‘Marghazhi music season'."

The Hindu and Saregama to institute M S Subbulakshmi Award

This award aligns well with what Smt. MS outlined in her acceptance speech when receiving the Sangita Kalanidhi award. That her request is that young musicians should be encouraged; that a peer of experts must select the most promising musicians and give them opportunities to perform. That this is very important for Carnatic music to flourish.

Dear Admin,
Thanks for posting the legend's speech in the website. For young persons like me who have never heard M.S.S's speech (I have heard her songs alone), its a treasure.
Long live MS amma's fame!
