collectively known as the Mysore brothers, hold a unique spot in the
hearts of classical music fans.

music scene. Born to a violinist, Prof. S. Mahadevappa, they were
schooled from a very early age in playing the violin.
From
child prodigies to trail blazers, captivating audiences & critics,
The Mysore Brothers have created an unrivalled record as star performers
in prestigious organizations world over. From
Royal Albert Hall to Sydney Opera house, from Common Thread Music
festival in the USA to Federation Square in Melbourne, from World Music
Festival in Chicago to Esplanade Theatre in Singapore, to Santa Fe
Festival in New Mexico... The Mysore Brothers have enthralled audiences
all over the world.
The Los Angeles Times warmly noted that they have "crossed over so many boundaries to create a musical wonder".
