| A study of the history of Madras, would be incomplete without a study of the history of Carnatic Music and those involved in it.Like in any art form, it is the individuals, the artistes, the composers, the patrons and the organisers who have moulded and shaped Carnatic Music into what it is today.
Sangeetham and Charsur, two organisations dedicated to Carnatic music, have joined hands to bring about an awareness of our musical past, an awareness that will enrich our present and contribute to the future. The two organisations are planning heritage walks around Mylapore, Santhome,George Town & Triplicane, areas that have contributed significantly to the treasure house of Carnatic Music. This trip will cover the residences of many music ‘greats’, venues of past performances and site that changed the course of Carnatic Music.
