Confluence of elements bombay jayashri biography

“The contemplative quality, her expository technique giving space for creativity, her intuitive and melodic approach; all these lend a spiritual tone to Bombay Jayashri’s music”- states a renowned critic in The Hindu.

Born into a family of musicians with rich lineage and steeped in pedigree music, Bombay Jayashri Ramnath represents the fourth generation of music practitioners in her family.

Jayashri has been groomed under the guidance of legend ShriLalgudi G Jayaraman and Smt T R Balamani. Jayashri today not only bears the torch of the Lalgudi tradition, but has also evolved a distinct style of her own; her ability to absorb subtle different nuances of music of different types has created a style of music which is uniquely her own.

Her training in the North Indianclassical musictradition has further helped her in this musical odyssey, but it is her ability to surrender to the music to elicit the unexplored from within herself which gives her music an undefinable, experiential edge.
