14 Sri Shanmukhananda National Eminence Award In Fine Arts we have the closest approach to universality. It brings peace which passeth understanding. Its immortal spirit ministers to our need for sweetness and light. From times immemorial, Fine Arts has been patronised by kings and courts of wisdom. A few centuries ago, temples and devosoms started honouring performing artistes to perpetuate all art forms in view of their sublimity and divinity. With the demise of these institutions as patrons of Fine Arts and democracy gaining currency, the need for institutional recognition arose. As a premier institution of Fine Arts in South East Asia, the Sabha s activities extend far beyond a stage for performance. Harnessing talent, exposing it to discerning audience and to blossom surfaced talent is no less important. To provide a national framework for honouring veterans in the field of performing arts as well as the emerging stars, the Sri Shanmukhananda National Eminence Award was set up in the Golden Jubilee Year Award Scheme The National Eminence Award covers any of the following fields: Music of all forms and origin Dance Theatre Fine Arts admininstrators. The National Eminence Award is granted only once during the lifetime of the awardee and he/she would be disqualified if he/ she surrenders or is directed to surrender any national honours like Padmashri, Padmabhushan, Padamavibushan etc. The award carries a cash prize of 2,50,000/-, a citation, a lamp, a bronze Shanmukha icon, a trophy and a shawl. Subsidiary Awards Emerging artistes in the above fields are conferred the title Shanmukha Shiromani. The subsidiary award a cash prize of 50,000/-, a bronze Shanmukha icon, a trophy, a citation and a shawl. The award is generally given to three young and promising artistes.

Shanmukhananda Sangeetha Vidyalaya between 1970 and The Vidyalaya rose to great heights under his stewardship. During his tenure, Carnatic Music in the city glowed with rare brilliance.

20 Sri Shanmukhananda Vayovruddha Kalakaar Masika Artha Sahaya Yojana Art and music have always been the leit motif of Indian culture. Those who dedicated their entire lifetime pursuing this passion, are venerated with an intensity bordering on worship. The dedication, the selfless devotion and the unwavering pursuit of perfection is a constant source of wonder and amazement to anyone who has the slightest regard for classical arts. As time passes, the artistes also move away from centre-stage, making way for younger talent. The torch is passed on to the next generation. But it sometimes appears that darkness descends on the senior artistes. In a lifetime dedicated to bringing beauty to other lives, they choose to nurture their art at the expense of themselves and their families. The present looms in front, barren and lonely. Surely we, whose lives have been so unalterably touched by their Kala, have a duty to see that their lives do not pass in to uncaring want. Sri Shanmukhananda Fine Arts & Sangeetha Sabha has started a scheme to provide financial support to artistes, who no longer perform on a professional basis. It is a small gesture to tell them that the divine beauty of their art lives in our hearts. Shanmukhananda Vayovruddha Kalakaar Masika Artha Sahaya Yojana commenced on 15th September 2003 with an initial corpus fund of 20 lakhs, raised from patrons of Fine Arts. Each year on World Music Day, 2nd October or thereabout, Kalakaar Upkar, a fund raising concert is held for the Vayovruddha Yojana. Year No. of Beneficiaries Shanmukhananda Vayovruddha Kalakaar Masika Artha Sahaya Yojana commenced on 15th September 2003 with an initial corpus fund of 20 lakhs, raised from patrons of Fine Arts. 20 Sri Shanmukhananda Fine Arts and Sangeetha Sabha Annual Report

21 Sri Kanchi Mahaswami Sangeethanjali Mahaswami of Kanchi was known for his masterly knowledge of music. He is known too, for his love for listening to good music and for his solicitude for musicians. Over the years, numerous Carnatic musicians have deemed it a great privilege to perform in his presence. The Paramacharya often spoke about music and its role in spiritual pursuits in his various discourses. To think of the great Acharya is to lift ourselves to a higher realm of thought and action. To most of us who know very little beyond the possibilities of the discursive intellect, the Sage of Kanchi is a constant reminder of how much we have to make up in our journey through life to the goal of freedom. Sri Shanmukhananda Sabha s Auditorium was rechristened as a tribute to him as Sri Shanmukhananda Chandrasekarendra Saraswati Auditorium on 27th December, 2000, in the benign presence of His Holiness Pujyashri Jayendra Saraswati Swamigal, 69th Sankaracharya of Kanchi Kamakoti Peetam. It was then decided that in commemoration of the momentous event, each year, on 27th December or proximate to the Aradhana of the Sage, Mahaswami Sangeethanjali will be performed.

27 Sri Shanmukhananda Community Health Care Centre Preamble Sri. Shanmukhananda Fine Arts & Sangeetha Sabha has over the past six decades played a unique role in the national integration and cultural synthesis of our country. Fine Arts kindles the esoteric perceptions of the connoisseur. It has the infinite capacity to take one s mind from the realm of mundane life into the regions of ethereal charm. It is this bridge that the Sabha has effectively deployed to bring forth a fusion of diverse cultures, religions and interests. From the haunting melody of a vocal performance, to the sweet string of a veena recital, to the graceful movements of a dancer, from the joyful gathering of parents of a local school to a large gathering and important political convention, from the august performance of an internationally acclaimed orchestra, to Annual General meetings of large corporate houses, the Auditorium is a silent witness to all over the years. Today, the Auditorium is more than an edifice, it is a part of a living history, a monument to cultural synthesis, one singular object that in its multifaceted dimension and secular nature, epitomizes the city it stands proud in and in a larger sense, the nation. The Shanmukhananda Sabha; it s a living tradition. Sri Shanmukhananda Chandrasekarendra Saraswati Auditorium which is the largest Auditorium to the east of Suez effectively merges culture and commerce and has been the venue for several national and Sri Shanmukhananda Fine Arts and Sangeetha Sabha Annual Report

28 international events. In merging tradition and talent the SANGEETHA VIDYALAYA does pioneering work in keeping alive music tradition in the city. The Shanmukhananda is a public charitable trust registered under the Bombay Public Trust Act, It is registered u/s 12AA of the Income Tax Act, 1961 and enjoys perpetual exemption u/s 80G of the Income Tax Act, Foray into Medical Services The founders of the Sabha had a vision that did not limit culture to just entertainment value. The word culture is derived from the Latin word Calore which means to cultivate and adore. Thus culture is primarily cultivation of mind through love of ideals. The goal of culture is an integral vision of life, self-knowledge and strength of character. Culture is a better expression of our spirit in our existence through the vitality of a creative conscience, for without conscience there is no culture. A healthy mind in an healthy body. Only a mind which is calm and serene can appreciate music. The founders therefore saw a perfect co-relation between music and an healthy body. They gave expression to this unique philosophy by creating the Sri. Shanmukhananda Medical Centre in the year On 24th January 1974, Dr. Rafiq Zakaria, Minister for Health and Urban Development, Government of Maharashtra inaugurated the centre. The Sabha also enshrined in its Memorandum of Association the following additional objects : To provide medical relief to any person irrespective of caste or creed and to establish Medical Centres / Hospitals for providing medical services and also to undertake and promote education and research in medical science and allied activities; To provide services in the fields of community health services, yoga and nutrition; Over the years the Medical Centre has expanded its operations into consultancy and treatment in the areas of : Eye care Dialysis Diabetology Sonography Orthopaedics Physiotherapy Pediatrics E N T Dermatology Bharat Ratna Shri C.

48 Bharat Ratna Dr. M. S. Subbulakshmi Centenary Celebrations ( ) Dr. M.S. Subbulakshmi would have completed 100 years on had she been alive. Enthused by the astounding success of the celebrations of the commencement of Centenary between , the Sabha proposes to celebrate the Centenary with renewed enthusiasm. This angel of immense glory brought back nostalgic memories of the eight decades she held the centre stage of Indian music. It is given only to a chosen few to leave indelible, impressive prints in the Verdant spheres of any art form. MS was an artiste extraordinary whose music transformed the ambience from the mundane to divine. She lives in the hearts and minds of every lover of music. Staunch in her culture, she remained a stranger to bigotry. She had known what it was to be poor, insecure and marginalized. It is her empathy for the downtrodden in daily life not just in cheques donated on platforms that gave her music the quality of mercy. The timeless, priceless quality of MS s music would always remain a glorious chapter in the history of Indian music. The singing legend lives on through her suprabhatams and bhajans. She is alive in the temples and would remain in that divine voice forever. As we celebrate the birth centenary of this Nightingale of India, we rededicate ourselves to the cause of our blessed land s glorious heritage, tradition, Art and culture. We shall incorporate into our lives a little of the spirit that animated MS! We will strive to walk the way she has shown us.

With internal migration within the city, fine arts rasikas in and around the Sabha have substantially declined. Our efforts to draw the youth to mainstream Indian Art and Culture has come a cropper. The age profile of members distinctly points to a declining trend in the near future as well. Youth oriented programmes packaged in the Annual Members programme calendar is a sure step forward to attract them. ROCKOTSAV between November 5 8, 2016 is a step in that direction. EACH MEMBER can BRING ONE YOUNG MEMBER, preferably from the family. The applicant should be less than 25 years of age. The Sabha will consider a nominal admission fee of 100/- for this category. A target of 500 youngsters has been taken, to be achieved before A NEW BEGINNING with RENEWED HOPE. Sri Shanmukhananda Fine Arts and Sangeetha Sabha Annual Report

For vocalist and composer Shri G.N. Balasubramaniam (GNB), it was the 50th death anniversary, while for pioneering vocalist Shri Ariyakudi Ramanuja Iyengar it was the 125th birth anniversary. Shri Mysore Vasudevachar, one of the great 20th Century composers had his 150th birth anniversary in May The Vidyalaya had arranged one lecture-demonstration for each of these milestones on the anniversary dates, so it was a bonanza of three lec-dems in the month of May for rasikas. 50th Punyatithi of Shri G.N. Balasubramaniam- 1st May 2015 The series got off to a splendid start with senior veena vidwan and music critic Shri P. Vasanth Kumar s lec-dem on 1st May Two of Vasanth Kumar s disciples Revathi Kumar and Madhumita Aravind sang GNB kritis as part of the demonstration. Vasanth Kumar said that GNB was a selfmade musician with a formidable intellect and a very unique voice. His manasika guru was Shri Ariyakudi Ramanuja Iyengar whom he idolized to the extent that he wouldn t tolerate any criticism of him. Interestingly, he has played the tanpura for some of Ariyakudi s concerts. The vocal renditions were planned on the lines of a regular kutcheri to make the demonstration more lively and absorbing.it was a very well-researched, well-planned and well-executed lec-dem by the Guru and the disciples made it a resounding success with their outstanding singing. The 125th birth anniversary of Ariyakudi Ramanuja Iyengar 16th May 2015 The 125th birth anniversary of Ariyakudi Ramanuja Iyengar was celebrated with a lecture demonstration by his direct as well as the last disciple, Shri Alepey Venkatesan. Ariyakudi was hailed as a Margadarshi of Margadarshis and was respected as a musician of the 20th century whose formula Sri Shanmukhananda Fine Arts and Sangeetha Sabha Annual Report

66 for rendering a perfect kutcheri is adhered to even today. He was an inspiring role model and was considered as a Sangeetha Dharma Paripalaka by Shri G.N. Balasubramaniam. Shri Semmangudi Sreenivasa Iyer revered him as his Manasika Guru. The innovation of streamlining the kutcheri format adding one hour of miscellany to it brought more and more listeners to this great art form as it added great ranjakatva to the concerts. He has actually educated two generations of listeners by elevating their knowledge and standard of appreciation. Shri Venkatesan spoke with ease and felicity which made the presentation very interesting and all those present were offered a glimpse into the genius that was Ariyakudi. 150th birth anniversary of Shri Mysore Vasudevachar 30th May 2015 Smt. Jaya Krishnan, a veteran musician, gave an illustrated talk on Shri Mysore Vasudevachar. She had the privilege of learning a few kritis directly from the composer as well as from his disciples Smt.

72 Shanmukananda Jasubhai R.K. Shah Medical Centre The Medical Centre completed 41 years of yeoman service to poor and middle class community living in the vicinity of the Sabha. Ruby Jubilee Function to commemorate the milestone of completion of 40 years was held on March 23, 2015 with Bharat Ratna Late Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam as the Chief Guest. Highlights of Operations Dialysis Centre The Centre continued to provide dialysis to poor and needy patients at highly subsidized rates. The year was an important one for the Centre, with the Sabha receiving large donations from Tata Education & Development Trust, New India Assurance Co. Ltd. Also with the generous donations from Shri Akash Bhansali of Roop Manek Bhanshali Trust and Sunder Iyer family, the Sabha was in a position to offer Ruby Jubilee Year discount to all the patients undergoing dialysis. The Centre provides dialysis procedures to poor and needy patients mostly free of charge or in some cases at a very highly subsidized rate, depending on the financial status of the patients. While the cost of a dialysis procedure is more than 1,500, all patients are provided concessional treatment. During the year, about 25 % of the patients received treatment totally free and an additional 40 % received treatment at a nominal rate of 300 per procedure. Even others received subsidy at varying rates depending on their income level. Presently the Centre has 13 Dialysis machines, 5 of Gambro and 8 of Fresenius make. During the better part of the year, two procedures were performed in a day on each machine. However, in view of the long list of patients waiting for their turn, it was decided to initiate a third procedure, while maintaining the Day Care identity of the Centre. In the third shift only 8 patients could be accommodated for the third procedure on the 8 Fresenius machines due to operational constraints. 2 Gambro machines purchased in 2008 needed to be replaced, so that we could accommodate more needy and under privileged patients from the waiting list. Nihchal Israni Foundation donated lakhs for purchase of two additional Fresenius machines to replace the old Gambro machines of 2008 vintage. This addition will further help in reducing the waiting time for the needy patients. The donation also provides for purchase of two Multi-para monitors. In some cases, the blood pressure and pulse of the patients cannot be checked with the universal measuring instruments, due to calcification, failure of the fistula or thickening of the arteries. The Multi-para monitors are a great help in monitoring these patients. The Centre is grateful to the Nichal Israni Trust for their generous donation. During this year, 7414 procedures were conducted ( Previous year : 5,702 nos.), an increase of about 30 %, averaging to 618 dialysis per month. During the year , the Centre hopes to conduct more than 9,000 procedures. 72 Sri Shanmukhananda Fine Arts and Sangeetha Sabha Annual Report

73 Eye Care Centre:. In the previous year, the Centre carried out 563 cataract surgeries, 539 other eye care procedures and attended to 23,743 patients in its outpatient services. During the year, the corresponding data is 603 cataract surgeries, 962 other eye care procedures and 25,475 patients treated in outpatient services. Due to constraints of space and availability of a single operation Theatre, with surgeries on three days a week basis, the number of surgeries conducted have been nearly static. Since March this year, four day- surgery protocol was introduced on an experimental basis. This has been found to be not only practicable, but has found favour with the patients waiting their turn. The existing man power in the Eye Care Centre both in numbers and expertise, with minor adjustments, is found to be sufficient to further increase the services to undertake surgeries on Fiveday- week protocol starting April This should facilitate conduct of an additional two hundred surgeries in the coming year. The Eye Care Centre has established its reputation for the expertise available, courteous and prompt handling of patients and its tariff structure. During the year, the centre undertook a number of complicated surgeries. A couple of these with Before and After photographs bring home the expertise on hand. During the year, the Retina section saw a footfall of about 1822 OPD patients and conducted about 699 retina tests at a highly subsidized rate for the poor and needy patients. The Centre added a much needed Vitreo- Retinal Surgery Facility with the installation of state of the art equipment worth lacs, donated by New India assurance Co. Ltd. In the last few months that the Facility has been in operation, the Centre has conducted 18 vitreo- retinal surgeries, under the direct supervision of Dr. Aniruddha Mahindrakar, our in house consultant and vitreo-retinal surgeon. Till date Occuloplasty services were being outsourced to different hospitals, since a separate area was needed for such a service to ensure sterilized services without chances of cross contamination. Arrangements are presently underway to ensure these operations are conducted in-house from May2016 onwards. The tariff for all services rendered by the Eye Care Centre have been maintained at a much lower level than any other such facility in the extended vicinity, so as to ensure that poor and lower middle class patients are not unduly stressed. With effect from March this year, the tariff has been rationalized to provide for continuing subsidized services for poor and needy. The members of the Sabha are requested to spread awareness of the Retina Department in the Medical Centre, so that more persons can take advantage of the State of the Art Facilities available in the Medical centre General Medicine Patient footfall in the General Medicine Departments was stable and was marginally above the previous year. Patients availing consultancy services increased from 1,554 Inaugaration of the Vitrectomy Department Sri Shanmukhananda Fine Arts and Sangeetha Sabha Annual Report

74 nos. to 1,876 nos. Medical procedures were nearly static at 6,390 nos. (previous year 6,157). Patients for Pathology tests were lower at 4,594 nos. (previous year :4,711). Additional efforts to highlight the range of services available in the Medical Centre, in the neighbouring communities have been initiated. During the year, the Centre extended its consultancy services in the fields of Endocrine, Thyroid and Breast Cancer fields. It also intends to provide in house ultrasound services Comparative year-on-year data of Patients/procedures conducted in various departments of the Centre is given below: Procedures No. of patients / Procedures Eye Care OPD 23, Cataract surgeries Eye care other procedures Retina OPD Retinal procedures Dialysis 5, Pathology 18, Homeopathy 2, Consultancy 1, Physiotherapy 2, ECG Diabetology and Dietary advice The Sabha places on record its deep sense of appreciation and gratitude to all the donors who contributed generously and helped the Sabha to fulfill its social responsibility and sustain its activities. It feels confident that the plans on the anvil for the future expansion of activities of the Medical Centre will fructify and become operational in the next two to three years. 74 Sri Shanmukhananda Fine Arts and Sangeetha Sabha Annual Report

Concentrated efforts at hard marketing of our assets and infrastructure paid dividends and is reflected in the occupancy growth. The current trend is expected to continue. The occupancy at the Dr. M. S. Subbulakshmi Auditorium and the other small auditoria have also witnessed a satisfactory growth. During the year, the continuing medical education programme (CME) organized by the medical centre of the Sabha was shifted to Padma Ranga Chamber Concert Hall. This had a favourable effect on the medical practitioners, pharmaceutical companies and other stakeholders of healthcare. This also resulted in other training programmes being held in this hall. Shanmukha Melodies, a light music group promoted by the Sabha patronised the Dr. M. S. Subbulakshmi Auditorium lending visibility to it for small music groups. During the year, the occupancy of the main auditorium registered a healthy increase 134 Sri Shanmukhananda Fine Arts and Sangeetha Sabha Annual Report

139 5. Infrastructure Works The only major work undertaken during the year was the supply and installation of a 250 KVA emergency Power System. In the past, Power Supply in the Island City of Mumbai used to be very reliable with very few break downs. It is no more so, with black-outs becoming common. In view of the above and increasingly lower reliability of power supply from BEST, it was considered advisable to re-evaluate the Sabha s emergency power requirements. The Diesel Generator presently in use in the Sabha is of 125 KVA capacity of Kirloskar make and was installed more than 15 years ago. The performance of this DG set has significantly eroded with the capacity getting de-rated to 60 KVA. In the recent past it has had frequent break downs and had caused costly and time consuming repairs. The de-rated capacity is not sufficient even for maintenance of minimal lighting requirements. Frequent breakdowns is also a safety hazard for the Auditorium and the Medical Centre A DG Set of capacity 250KVA of Crompton Greaves and Cummins (Powerica) make has been procured and commissioned. The Cost of the Set is lakhs. Cost of supply and installation of associated electrical works including cabling, earthing and other associated electrical and civil works is 5.60 lakhs. The other various capital expenditures are procurement of computers, printers, replacement projector lamps, telephone instruments, xerox machine, water meter, furnitures and gym equipments at a total cost 3.71 lakhs. Total cost of Capital Works carried out during the current year is about 41 Lakhs. Capital expenditure on other works carried out during the year is as below : Sr.No. (in lakhs) 1. Additions to Acoustic and Sound Systems Additions / Alterations to Ventilation & Air Conditioning Systems Display Panels Additions to Electrical & Lighting Systems Civil Works Finance & Accounts The Finances of the Trust continues to be satisfactory. Revenue for the current year from hall rent was lakhs (Previous year : lakhs). Gross Revenue of the Trust from the Auditoria and other parts of the premises and associated charges was lakhs as compared to lakhs of the previous year. Interest income at lakhs (previous year: lakhs) was lower due to the decrease in the average interest rates during the year. Further income from Kiosks was lower at lakhs (previous year : lakhs). Efforts to increase the occupancy of kiosk spaces are being intensified. Net surplus for the year was about lakhs as compared to lakhs during the previous year. Additions to the fixed assets during the year was lakhs as compared to lakhs in the previous year. For the assessment year , the assessing Income Tax Officer determined a taxable income at about 1.23 Crores for the Sabha. After giving credit for the Sri Shanmukhananda Fine Arts and Sangeetha Sabha Annual Report

140 TDS, the tax payable was determined at lakhs. An appeal was filed before the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) 1, Mumbai. The CIT (Appeals) vide his order dated dismissed the appeal for this year as well for the assessment year For the year , the demand was raised at lakhs. A careful perusal of the appeal order indicated that CIT (Appeals) has not considered the various disallowances appealed against and had limited the order only to a few. It was therefore represented to him to consider the other appeals as well. In so far as, the appeal has not been completely disposed off, it was felt that the demand of lakhs is still not enforceable. The assessing officer vide his letter dated had demanded 201 lakhs together with interest for both the years. Based on our representation to him, it was agreed that a token sum of 5 lakhs would be paid for the assessment year and lakhs for the assessment year In the meanwhile, it was decided to appeal against the order of CIT (Appeals) before the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, Mumbai Bench. The Sabha has appointed M/s. Shaparia & Mehta, Chartered Accountants, as the Tax Advisors for the Case. In respect of Assessment years and , the Bombay High Court had stayed the demand raised by the Department by an interim order. The Brihan Mumbai Mahanagar Palika (BMC) revised the Property Tax for Mumbai area and is now raising demands on the basis of capital value of the property. The same has been challenged in the Courts by several assessees. While the cases are pending, the Sabha had agreed to pay the taxes as per the revised classification. However, the Sabha while agreeing to pay the demanded amount of tax had clearly put across the following points for BMCs consideration. For Property Tax Purposes, the Sabha premises has to be considered as a single entity and any reduction in one component has to be adjusted against the overall dues. The Sabha is a recognized Charitable Institution and more particularly so, since the Sabha is operating a Medical Centre, with its services provided at a very heavily subsidized rates to poor and needy people of Mumbai. These need to be taken into account while re- working the Property Tax. The BMC has now agreed to consider the points raised by the Sabha. The sabha has been paid in full the property tax demand related to its premises after adjusting refunds due from the corporation on the change of user area. The issue of regularization and renewal of the last Pay & Park Agreement the Sabha had entered into with the BMC for the two plots in front of the Sabha premises and also our request to manage the adjacent plot behind telephone exchange had been pending with BMC for quite some time. The Agreement enabling the Sabha to operate the scheme on two plots had expired in 2012, but we had continued to operate the scheme till about January 2015, since the Corporation did not take over the area, perhaps due to uncertainties in the overall policy formulation by the Corporation in respect of operation of such arrangements. The Corporation has now acceded to our request and regularized the earlier Agreement for the two plots that had been allotted to us. Further they have now allotted all the four plots in front of the Sabha, for us to operate the Scheme. Accordingly the Sabha has paid the arrears for the earlier period of Lakhs and the fee from to for the new lease of lakhs for 180 days. The Agreement is valid for an initial period of Six months and is renewable thereafter. 140 Sri Shanmukhananda Fine Arts and Sangeetha Sabha Annual Report

155 years Pilgrimage TO PERFECTION When Jawaharlal Nehru heard M. S. Subbulakshmi sing, he said Who am I, a mere Prime Minister, before the Queen of Music. The voice that moved the world, fell silent on 11 th December Her voice held the world in a spell. She sang in 10 languages. Her repertoire was prodigious, packed with songs of every genre, setting high standards in purity of diction and emotional content. Her vocal communication transcended words. Subbulakshmi became a cult figure not only as a singer par excellence, she remains one of the most loved representative of the best in traditional Indian values. Her patriotism was no bar to her belief in universal brotherhood, a profound religiosity enhanced her respect for other creeds and conservatism underlined concern for others. Austerity and sacrifice were no catchwords. They were a way of life. It is given only to a chosen few to leave indelible, impressive prints in the Verdant spheres of any art form. MS was an artiste extraordinary whose music transformed the ambience from the mundane to divine. She lives in the hearts and minds of every lover of music. Staunch in her culture, she remained a stranger to bigotry. She had known what it was to be poor, insecure and marginalized. It is her empathy for the downtrodden in daily life not just in cheques donated on platforms that gave her music the quality of mercy. The timeless, priceless quality of MS s music would always remain a glorious chapter in the history of Indian music. The singing legend lives on through her suprabhatams and bhajans. She is alive in the temples and would remain in that divine voice forever. As we celebrate the birth centenary of this Nightingale of music, we rededicate ourselves to the cause of our blessed land s glorious heritage, tradition, Art and culture. We shall incorporate into our lives a little of the spirit that animated MS! We will strive to walk the way she has shown us. May her grace descend on us and vitalise us in our PILGRIMAGE TO PERFECTION! Dr. V. Shankar President Dated : 16 th September 2015 Sri Shanmukhananda Fine Arts and Sangeetha Sabha Annual Report
