You can observe he is telling this Raaga received 3 times Standing ovation... Never he uses 'I' got standing ovation.. Lot to learn from this Legend. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
OMG, even after achieving so much he's so humble. He says that he feels nervous to play in front of legends, does he even realize he himself is a legend?
Was listening to U. Srinivas, who this Jewish boy from Boston and the high peaks of the White Mtns., absolutely adores, and googled something about him and up came the story of his death two weeks ago. His music has given me great joy since I first encountered him in Remember Shakti ten or so years ago. I've listened to a lot of his work, some of it to my taste and some of it not, without regard to genre. His ability to make my heart soar is up there with the best: R. Shankar, Clapton, Coltrane, Hendrix, M. Davis, and even McLaughlin at his best. Some of the music on the three Remember Shakti CDs is as beautiful as anything I've heard in my long life. Srinivas's collaborations and songs played with his fellow South Indian musicians are equally amazing. The interplay with tablaists and violin and other instruments is just extraordinarily creative and engaged. Highly recommend the albums Mandolin Melodies and Modern Mandolin Maestro. The song Ninnuvina on Mandolin Melodies just takes my breath away--It is Love Supreme with drone! I'm not religious, and so not sure what to say. As one of the "fortunate ones", music has played a central role in my life since the mid-1960s. Srinivas is one of the Great Ones. Thanks to NPR for letting me know! This video itself is very very beautiful. Srinivas is just stunning in performance.
என்ன பணிவு, நீங்கள் பிறவி மேதை . உங்களை போன்றவர்களிடம் மட்டுமே இது போன்ற கல்யாண சௌலப்ய குணங்கள் காண முடியும். மீண்டும் உம் குரல் கேட்டு அழுது கொண்டே இருக்கிறேன் கண்ணா. உன் இசையால் என் மனதை வருடி சமாதானமும் செய்கிராய். 👍 மீண்டும் உன்னை நாங்கள் எதாவது பிறவியில் கண்டிப்பாக சந்திப்போம். பரம் பொருள் அதை நடத்தி வைக்க வேண்டுகிறேன்.
There are two instrumentalists in carnatic music who could play the notes with utter grace and skill and they are Lalgudi Jayaraman and U.Srinivas.. This event is a befitting one to show the compositions of the former being played by the latter. Nothing could have excelled this!!
Days when I am feeling low, I listen to this concert. The cosmic sound of his music and Srinivas sir’s words always puts a smile on my face. Whoever said Genius and Humble don’t go together! Come watch this human being!

Each time i feel i have achieved something in life i hear to srinivas speaking and realize the true meaning of humility. If one thing I can learn anything from this genius is to be humble in spite of his amazing skills and popularity. You are connecting us to GOD when you perform.
I remember fondly his concerts in Sacramento at CSUS when he was a kid including the 1984 tour he mentioned. A shining star on the firmament of Carnatic music forever and ever.
U. Srinivas, child prodigy, mandolin maestro and a wonderful human being. So sad he died today at a very young age of 45. Hard to believe. Rest in peace. I hope you can come back to earth again. We need musicians like you to turn this sad world around. We will re-live your musical legacy.
Our entire family members have been denied the privilege to hear soul touching divine music.My grand son Sai Sathya who is his pet young student is in deep sorrow. May his departed soul bless him to continue his musical journey.
RIP Mandolin Maestro... always humble and smiling...ever since I first saw him in a concert at a temple near my home when he was just a teenager, but a celebrity already!!
What a child like glow and enthusiasm on Shri Shrinivas’ face while he described his Boston experience! Paramatma is not entirely merciless- he has at least left us with these recordings.
I HAVE BEEN WATCHING THIS BOY SINCE 1976 -77 AND TODAY I FEEL SADDENED WITHOUT HIM I ONLY DERIVE CONSOLATION FROM HIS MELODIES. A TRUE EMBODIMENT OF BHAKTI AND DEDICATION WITH GODDESSS SARASWATHI IN HIM
Biggest loss to Music. I regret not being seen you on live concert but always watched you on Doordarshan and You tube. It was my wish to see you perform live. You will stay with us forever. May your soul rest in peace. May god bless your family with lot of courage and strength to accept your loss.
There was and can be one and only prodigy,that is U.Srinivas.The rest can at most be caricatures that would like to pass off as prodigies but in reality,they are far from being called so and much less before Srinivas's prodigious talent.Watch out,he is going to come back in a new avatar of celestial music.
Greater master of Mandolin. I never saw anyone like him in my life. Electrifying speed with so beautiful clarity of sound of each pair of string. Salute Raja. You were wanted by the most powerful entity in the world. That was your real home Sir. Near Saraswati Devi's feet.
May your Great Soul rest in peace. I still remember that cool evening concert near Koppa in Chikkamagalur in 2007 when you along with Rajesh played fusion. I had a cassette recorder and recorded your entire concert and used to listen to it again and again during my stay in Sringeri for about one year. Later on though the cassette caught fungus and rendered useless, your melody still plays in the ears. Will miss you so much... :-(
One of the greatest legends of all time for the world of music. A very modest human being despite the genius he is. Can't digest the fact that he is no more. May his soul rest in peace. May he bless us all from the heavens.
Speech of Mandoline shows his humility. His charukesi varnam ,a melody ragam make me shed tears. . We the rasikas miss him a lot . Perhaps god would like to listen his music . He had catched him from us.
Child prodigy and Master of mandolin music, you treated us so well. What a great soul,simple ever smiling, music concerts will never be complete.God's own child come back.
What a great spiritual music legendary occasion. Rare to see the great MandslinSrinivas playing in a video and a rare chance to see it for the music lovers and especially his fans in this haphazard World. Thanks a lot for this video and wonderful to see him playing with expressions of situations, occasions and feelings. May be there was a slip of a tongue, wonderful remembrance of a great moment and looking back at himself and un a nutshell divine self introspection.!! Music is great, sponsors true or rare to find ambience are rare to find. Everything positive is seen and heard. What a wonder. Long live the mandolin Maestro, true sponsors and music!!!
Wow... Awesome concert ... I had 2 of his cassettes when I was a child . Since then I have been his fan.... he is so humble that he stood up when he received the flowers and he being a legend himself is afraid to play in front of the legends... That is humbleness... So grrateful to live in the same era. Thank you and God bless 🙏
No one can replace you Srinivas sir , You were an embodiment of dedication ...When born talent practice with great dedication then we common man get amrutha dhara ... Great solute ... RIP
I bow my head to three persons who were made to born in the world and leave the globe in their mid 30s. They are Adi Shankara, Ramanujam- god of mathematics n come our beloved child-like legend U. Srinivas. Would they have born somewhere? Would we be able to realise n see them. Tears are the answers. Pranams, pranams, pranams.
The legend Sreenivas giving us all the sweetness of raga Charukesi. This well be always with us dear Sreenivas.The holy soul went back to heaven for ever.
When l saw the audio of mandalin srinivas sir, when he played,, enta muddo,, keertana of thyagayya at early age of 11, automatically, without notice, my eyes were fully of tears, that all musical lovers lost the musical legend
the loss of mandolin srinivas is an irreparable loss to the world of music world........his humility his humaneness and his modesty new no bounds,his music on the mandolin was divine,it became more grander and transcending in his ambi-dextorous hands,he summoned the divinities to this earth by his unremitting music,he was a messenger of sublime music that brought humanity in its clasp.........the fact that he not with us any more leaves a very big void.... a very saddening thing is that he died so young,,,,,,may his soul reach the sreepadangal of sriman narayana................

Mandolin Sreenivas is a favorite jewel of Maa Saraswathi !
He is gone and even today I cry when I listen to his music. Missing him so badly...

a "DHRUVATARA' IN THE GALAXY OF FINEST CLASSICAL MUSICIANS.
Missing your presence Srinivasji. Beyond your heart warming music you have taught your rasikas the power of humility.
True, great people leave their work for posterity to be inspired Dr. Ashwin chenji
M's,subbalakshml

It's hard to hold back tears when you hear Srinivas speaks (and plays). What humility !
Oh my God, such a humble personality. Noble personality.
Dont know why such a talented,kind hearted and down to earth people go away so early...!!! Coudldnt able to digest the sad news..
A true maestro, a legend and yet humble to the core! World music has lost a irreplaceable genius at such a young age. Sadgathi.

The 2nd kirtana was simply superb to listen to
His performance is so nice that Lord wanted him at His stage to perform.
That's humility, all through. We miss you, master! :( :( :(
RIP Mandolin Maestro... always humble and smiling...ever since I first saw him in a concert at a temple near my home when he was just a teenager, but a celebrity already!!

He brought Maestro Lalgudi ji back to us with Charukesi. Both are probably playing in Shiva's abode...
ppppaa....yevlo panivu thannadakkam....thatsy god raised him to the top
Terible for anyone to pass away so young. There is a joy in his playing that just shines through the recording.

A great genius, and humility personified,
One of the greatest legends of all time for the world of music. A very modest human being despite the genius he is. Can't digest the fact that he is no more. May his soul rest in peace. May he bless us all from the heavens.
Grace and humility grow to 🎶 in his mellifluous dexterity of moving our hearts. Simple as canticles to muse.
His music cannot remain silent,is something that cannot be expressed in words. May God continue to bless us with simplicity incarnate.

RIP... the legend Srinivas. Ur sudden demise today (19th Sep 2014), is a great loss to music world.
So sad that we lost this genius in such a young age. We shall miss you, Srinivas !!!!!
Thank you for the upload.
How humble he is.
Ever glowing pole star in the galaxy of Classal music!
Deepest condolences to one of the greatest musicians of our country.
Mandolin Srinivas an epitome in Instrumental music !
I had the opportunity to attend the concert at Trichy in1979 in National college ground now Indra Gandhi College.
Not 1979 it is 1969
The Mozart of Mandolin lives on thru his numerous recorded performances on UA-cam.& other recorded electronic media
the rendering of "Charukeshi" is simply marvellous.
Mandolin, U. Srinivas is the ever legend artist in C. C Music 🙏 🎶
Awesome varnam !
He was a Phenomenon!
A great musician. And an even greater human.
Such humility is difficult to find now. That too from a great musician. Sad, he is not here now.
a cascade of sweetness pure and pleasing
WONDERFUL KNOWLEDHE OF MELODY AND RHYTHM
மாண்டலின் உள்ளவரை அத்துடன் ஸ்ரீனிவாஸ் பெயரும் நிலைத்து நிற்கும்
பிறவிக் கலைஞர்.
Rare human being and sheer genius
I had been hearing his music since 80s till now, the very end of his career.
We are missing an icon,so sad cruel fate took him away.
Enna avasaram inda kadavulukku inda legend a solla varthai illai 😭😭😭😭

U . Sree was connecting himself within with his soul, just like M. S Amma. I am sure, like many 'karana' Janmas they prove God's presence
