*Charumathi Raghuraman, violinist in the Carnatic, South Indian musical tradition, is one of the premier young virtuosos of today. Seeing an inborn musical awareness at the tender age of five, she had her initial training with gurus, Smt. T.R. Balamani in Bombay. Soon thereafter, the iconic violinist of South India, Sri. T. N. Krishnan noticed her precocious talent and ever since Charumathi has been an ardent disciple of the great violinist. Her playing is marked by wonderful sensitivity and excellent technique. 'Lyrical, sensitive, creative reflecting acumen, aesthetically elegant, poised, graceful...' are some of the accolades showered on her by media reviews.*
