Extremely gifted Violin Maestros Mysore Nagaraj & Dr. Manjunath, the sons and disciples of renowned violinist Sangeetha Vidhya Nidhi Prof. S. Mahadevappa, were child prodigies who matured quickly to emerge as one of the top ranking violinists in India today.

Violin Concerts of these Maestros have been featured in innumerable music festivals & conferences all over the world. As critics admit , their concerts are filled with peace, tranquility and exhilaration - the result of superb fingering and bowing techniques that create breathtakingly beautiful melodies.
