Indian violin maestro to perform in the Sultanate

Muscat: Indian violin maestro, Dr L Subramaniam, will be the highlight of the gala dinner hosted for the speakers of the .Open Minds conference at the Shangri La Barr Al Jissah on February 10 and 11.
The dinner, which is being held in honour of the speakers of the two-day thought festival, will be held at the Turtle Beach—a secluded beach located on the edge of the mountain—of Shangri La on the evening of February 10.
Subramaniam, hailed as the “Paganini of Indian classical music” is known to combine the serenity of Indian classical music with the magnetism of western music to conquer audiences with the elegance and virtuosity of his style.
He is the only musician, who has performed and recorded South Indian classical music, western classical music, both orchestral and non-orchestral and also composed for and conducted major orchestras; he has scored for films and collaborated with a wide range of musicians from different genres of music. Critics cite him as a, “musical force that is strongly India, but universal in nature and approach.”
Subramaniam is all set to dazzle with a “fusion music performance” at the dinner.
The .Open Minds thought leadership forum will see top global speakers, including Entrepreneur Chris Gardner, Princess Beatrice of York, Dutch football legend Ruud Gullit and other thought and change leaders.
The event is presented by Areej Vegetable Oils and Derivatives (AVOD). Merge and Al Wisal are the radio partners and the Times of Oman and Al Shabiba are the media partners.
