About the artists

Dr. Mysore Manjunath is an acclaimed Indian violinist. He is renowned for his exceptional artistry in playing the Carnatic style of Indian classical music on the violin, a system of classical music from the south of India. Holding a Ph.D. in violin theory, he has guided multiple students under the Fulbright scholarship scheme and is known for his extensive knowledge of violin techniques. He has collaborated with various international artists and has also performed in world-renowned places such as Royal Albert Hall in London, Sydney Opera House, and Oxford University. Dr. Manjunath also has the distinction of being invited to special conferences, presentations, workshops, and concerts at some of the world's top universities like MIT, Oxford University, University of Chicago, University of North Texas, Indian Institute of Technology,  and The Kansas State University.

Continuing the legacy of Dr. Mysore Manjunath is the Indian violinist, Sumanth Manjunath. He hails from a musical family and has received training from his grandfather veteran violinist Sri Mahadevappa, his uncle the renowned violinist Mysore Nagaraj, and his father Dr. Mysore Manjunath. Sumanth has been performing since the age of nine and has performed in concerts across the globe.
