Through this initiative we aim to archive concerts by various artists and bring to our viewers the experience of listening to complete concerts. These concerts are carefully chosen from Vaak's archives and cleaned up for the best listening experience.
The purpose of this upload is to assist the students and the lifelong learners of India in their pursuit of an education so that they may better their status and their opportunities and to secure for themselves and for others justice, social, economic and political. This has been posted for non-commercial purposes and facilitates fair dealing usage of academic and research materials for private use including research, for criticism and review of the work or of other works and reproduction by teachers and students in the course of instruction. Many of these materials are either unavailable or inaccessible in libraries in India, especially in some of the poorer states and this collection seeks to fill a major gap that exists in access to knowledge.

A master/legend at all levels. Epitome of hard work with conviction. The grand sire of Carnatic music. SSI’s music exudes raga bhava and energy. We should all aspire to be imbibe his energy and sharp acuity at 85.

I guess the camera man was given the full freedom to explore Semmangudi's nose! What an unfortunate camerawork in an otherwise well-done documentary on the great man!
