Rochester, NY, October 13, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Well known Carnatic vocalists & classical maestros of Hyderabad, D. Seshachari and D. Raghavachari popularly known as Hyderabad Brothers created a magical vocal recital at the Sri Vidya Concert Series being held at Sri Rajarajeshwari Temple of Rush, New York.

The great vocal duos in Carnatic music today, with a great understanding between each other and with knowledge and voices to match, the Hyderabad Brothers have mastered the art of delivering captivating Carnatic music concerts. They have generated a Carnatic music storm by virtue of their immense scholarship and strict adherence to tradition.

The Hyderabad Brothers, D. Seshachari and D. Raghavachari, hail from a family of musicians. Their initial training was under the guidance of their father, the Late Sangeetha Sahitya Vidwan, Daroor Ratnamacharyulu, and their mother, D. Sulochana Devi. The brothers imbibed their music skills at the feet of their parents. Later, Shri Raghavachary alone had training under Shri Susarla Sivaram, at the Government College of Music and Dance in Hyderabad, whose idiom and style, the brothers have evolved. Their music, which has great strength and appeal, is bright, imaginative and full of verve and vigour. They have voices to complement their knowledge.

They started the concert with the Hamsadwani ‘Vathapi Ganapathim’ and moved to Sindukanada and Bhairavi before going into their main Lalitha that covered all corners of the ragam. Then they went on to Ramaamanohari to Ahiri, Dwijaiwanti, Sindubhairavi and Mangalm. Concert was crip and full of their generosity.

It should be noted that their main piece in Lalitha was composed in 20 minutes prior to the concert and was rendered without any mistake in diction.

They were superbly supported by the S. Varatharajan on violin and the great K V Prasad on Mrudangam.
