1.T.R. Mahalingam(Mali as he was popularly known) was born on

16/11/1926;died on 31/05/1986.

2. As a flautist, he was a Legend during his lifetime, and continues
to be "The

God of Celestial Flute",whose playing was the epitome of all divine
music,as

embodied by Lord Krishna himself.There never was and,it is highly
improbable

that there ever will be another flautist to equal him in sheer

brilliance,virtuosity,creativity and evocative genius,capable of
transporting

listeners to an out of the world experience, when he was in his
element.

Born on 27th August, 1928 in Rajamundry, Andhra Pradesh,Voleti
Venkateswaralu's unique and imaginative style of music, which,though
steeped in the traditional classicim of carnatic music,also
incorporated those better elements of the hindustani sytem like voice
culture,sruthi suddham,elaborate raga alapanas with slow and
methodical development from the manthara sthayee notes,leading onto
the madhyama kala vistharam enriched with flourishes of soulful
sangathis,and concluding in the breath-taking thara-sthayee sancharams
in the higher octaves,before again a magnificent descent down the
stairs of the lower two octaves,culminating finally in the thara-
sthayee notes.His raga alapanas left the listeners with the deep sense
of soul-fulfilment.

He was the prime disciple of the noted Andhra musician,Dr. Sri Pada
Pinakapani garu,who,ungrudgingly hailed him as a musical genius who
had surpassed his own talent.
In Dr.Pinakapani's own words:
"He was a disciple of mine all right, but what a genius! You can
describe him as one of the best musicians of Andhra ever. I wonder
whether we will ever get another musician like that"

What can one say about the Immortal MSS Amma, that has not already
been said by thousands of people from all walks of life, both the
great national leaders like Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru, as
well as by common rasikas who have been captivated by various aspects
of her music?
It is said that when Gandhiji heard her sing the Narsi Mehtha bhajan,
"Vaishnava janato tene kahiye",( the truly religious are those who
have great compassion for the sufferings of the poor), tears welled in
his eyes and he was choked with emotion.And on another occasion, when
Gandhiji wanted MSS to sing the meera bhajan, "Hari Tum Haro", her
husband, the Late Sri Sadasivam, replied that she was not aware of
how to sing this bhajan, since she had not learnt it.Gandhiji replied
that it was enough for him to hear MSS speak the words of the bhajan,
even if she did not know the song.This was indeed a great tribute from
the Father of the Nation to the intense bhava, bhakti and emotional
spiritualism in her voice.This incident happened in 1948, and later on
MSS went on to master this bhajan and made it nationally and
internationally famous with her soulful rendition.
It was also a tribute paid by Jawaharlal Nehru, "I am but a mere Prime
Minister, who pales into insignificance in the presence of the Queen ...
