BOOK LAUNCH|Voice Of The Veena by Vikram Sampat. S Balachander has been called the most brilliant star in the Carnatic music scene from the 1930s through the 1980s. An irrepressible genius he stormed into the Madras music scene. Both independent-minded and self-taught, Balachander carved a unique niche for himself as a Veena soloist. He boldly changed the grammar of instrumental music, contemporized the Veena and created a legacy known as the Balachander bani, or style. But Balachander's iconoclastic and brash ways earned him the ire of the Carnatic music fraternity. He was quick to pick quarrels with established fellow musicians in his lifelong quest for perfection and truth. Was Balachander a beloved genius or a much-maligned maverick? The book attempts to recreate the towering personality that he was – a lot of this researched from his elaborate personal diaries. Pub. Rupa Publications
