Amaradeva singing ‘ Paalu Anduru nil ahasa mamai’

Singer
of light or classical music, and music composer par excellence, violinist,
tablaist, adept with whatever is at hand, with a huge library of his
works on record, he accepts any music, western or eastern.

Now
88 years old, he can yet sing well, like India’s Manjreshkar sisters who are a
couple of years younger.
