presents Kala Ramnath - North Indian Violin Kala Ramnath is one of the most important young Hindustani violinists of today and the contemporary torch bearer of the Mewati Gharana. Kala comes from a family of south Indian violinists, which includes such luminaries as Prof. T N Krishnan and Dr N Rajam. Her grand father Vidhwan Narayana Iyer trained her uniquely in both Hindustani and Carnatic traditions. But, what really stands out is her training under the famous vocalist Pt. Jasraj of Mewati Gharana. She has also trained under her aunt, Dr N Rajam. Gayaki ang of Hindustani instrumental music tries to imitate the vocal music. In order for an artist to truly appreciate the intricacies of Gayaki ang, she has to train under a an expert vocalist. That is exactly what Kala has done. This is making her into one of the few violinists trained to be a Gayaki violinist and her violin has acquired the name, Singing Violin.
