It has been an action-filled twelve months since the last issue came out. The digitisation of the photographs of the past conferences and concerts has been proceeding apace, with high resolution images now being available up to the year 1985, complete with detailed captions. It has been heartening to see the number of requests for photos that have come from various organisers, family members and students of musicians of the past, and from other archives. We have tried to help out with whatever we have. Yet another initiative is the cataloguing of the art works of the Music Academy and their restoration. These comprise chiefly portraits of past Presidents and other office bearers and a series of representations of the composers of Carnatic Music. The portraits have all been restored by the Intach Chitra Kala Parishath Art Conservation Centre, Bangalore and are now back at their designated spots on the Academy walls. At the Music Academy-Tag Digital Archives, the digitisation of several hours of Carnatic concerts is progressing. The daily proceedings of the Annual Conference of 2017 have been summarised in this Journal. The reports on the conference proceedings have been compiled by the students of the Advanced School of Carnatic Music (ASCM) run by the Music Academy and a big thanks to them for the same. For many of them it was their first experience in reporting and yet they rose to the challenge. Some of the lectures were considered worthy of detailed articles and at the request of the Experts Committee of the Music Academy, the scholars who presented them have submitted papers for inclusion in this Journal. We thank them all for it. We have also included a rare song with notation. This, which was once an important feature of the Journal in the past years, was given up in more recent times. I am happy that there has been a revival since 2017. As always, this journal too follows international diacritical marks and my gratitude is to the singing duo of Archana and Aarathi for filling them in where needed. The Academy’s publications activity has received a boost this year with a fresh edition of Maha Vaidyanatha Sivan’s melaragamalika. This was last published by the Music Academy in 1989 and included an excellent Tamil commentary ‘Sivapriya’ by 7 VSV Gurumurthy Sastrigal. The same is now made available in English with a critical assessment and translation by Sumithra Vasudev, under the guidance of my co-secretary, Dr. Meenakshi (Sumathi) Krishnan. I would be very happy to receive feedback on the way this Journal has been produced and request that comments if any be please sent to music@ musicacademymadras.com I wish you a happy 2019 and before that, a wonderful December participating in the 92nd Annual Conference and Concerts of the Music Academy, Madras. Sriram V Music Academy December 15, 2018 THE MUSIC ACADEMY • JOURNAL 2018 • VOLUME 89 Report on the Inauguration of the Music Academy’s 91st Annual Conference and Concerts, on December 15, 2017. he Music Academy’s 91st annual conference and concerts got under way on December 15, T2017, with music director and maestro Ilayaraaja as the Chief Guest. Dr Meenakshi (Sumathi) Krishnan, Secretary, Music Academy, Madras was compère for the event. The students of the Advanced School of Carnatic Music (ASCM) sang Tyāgarāja’s nādatanumaniśam (cittaranjani/ ādi) by way of prayer. Shri N Murali, President of the Music Academy, formally welcomed the gathering and lauded the achievements of the Chief Guest, Shri Ilayaraaja and the Saṅgīta Kalānidhi elect, Chitravīṇa N Ravikiran. The Chief Guest’s Speech “Music happens. It cannot be made,” said Ilaiyaraaja, in his speech. The music maestro said he felt privileged to inaugurate the annual conference of the Academy. To him, music was not something that could be explained, and “when words become silent, the music speaks.” Citing a Tamil poem, Ilaiyaraaja said music was like the flow of a river. Neither music nor a river could ever remain static. The dynamic nature of music is best illustrated by the fact that the phrase or musical note that was in thought might not be the same when expressed.

  • In the Name of Krishna: the Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town
    In the Name of Krishna: The Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Sugata Ray IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Frederick M. Asher, Advisor April 2012 © Sugata Ray 2012 Acknowledgements They say writing a dissertation is a lonely and arduous task. But, I am fortunate to have found friends, colleagues, and mentors who have inspired me to make this laborious task far from arduous. It was Frederick M. Asher, my advisor, who inspired me to turn to places where art historians do not usually venture. The temple city of Khajuraho is not just the exquisite 11th-century temples at the site. Rather, the 11th-century temples are part of a larger visuality that extends to contemporary civic monuments in the city center, Rick suggested in the first class that I took with him. I learnt to move across time and space. To understand modern Vrindavan, one would have to look at its Mughal past; to understand temple architecture, one would have to look for rebellions in the colonial archive. Catherine B. Asher gave me the gift of the Mughal world – a world that I only barely knew before I met her. Today, I speak of the Islamicate world of colonial Vrindavan. Cathy walked me through Mughal mosques, tombs, and gardens on many cold wintry days in Minneapolis and on a hot summer day in Sasaram, Bihar. The Islamicate Krishna in my dissertation thus came into being.

    Newsletter Volume 6, Issue 11, November 2016 Mechanical Aspire Achievements in Sports, Projects, Industry, Research and Education All About Nobel Prize- Part 35 The Breakthrough Prize Inspired by Nobel Prize, there have been many other prizes similar to that, both in amount and in purpose. One such prize is the Breakthrough Prize. The Breakthrough Prize is backed by Facebook chief executive Mark Zuckerberg and Google co-founder Sergey Brin, among others. The Breakthrough Prize was founded by Brin and Anne Wojcicki, who runs genetic testing firm 23andMe, Chinese businessman Jack Ma, and Russian entrepreneur Yuri Milner and his wife Julia. The Breakthrough Prizes honor important, primarily recent, achievements in the categories of Fundamental Physics, Life Sciences and Mathematics . The prizes were founded in 2012 by Sergey Brin and Anne Wojcicki, Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan, Yuri and Julia Milner, and Jack Ma and Cathy Zhang. Committees of previous laureates choose the winners from candidates nominated in a process that’s online and open to the public. Laureates receive $3 million each in prize money. They attend a televised award ceremony designed to celebrate their achievements and inspire the next generation of scientists. As part of the ceremony schedule, they also engage in a program of lectures and discussions. Those that go on to make fresh discoveries remain eligible for future Breakthrough Prizes. The Trophy The Breakthrough Prize trophy was created by Olafur Eliasson. “The whole idea for me started out with, ‘Where do these great ideas come from? What type of intuition started the trajectory that eventually becomes what we celebrate today?’” Like much of Eliasson's work, the sculpture explores the common ground between art and science.
