Earlier I wrote about my visit to Wesleyan University and being part of the student concert and interviewing them. My 2 hour drive on a weekday from Boston to Bloomington, Connecticut was worth every moment, these students are all extremely inspiring and hugely talented. Solkattu by the students was a terrific performance, Prof. David Nelson is the man behind the Solkattu performance.
After the performance I had the good opportunity to chat with Wesleyan Balu on his musical journey, his inspirations and his advice to ambitious music students. Prof. Balu is the young and dynamic torch bearer of what his Guru T. Viswanathan and his predecessor Higgins Bhagavathar started at Wesleyan. Here is my video interview, enjoy (Towards the end of the interview the video is a bit off, please bear with the artistically challenged!))
