Aesthetic principles do not age by Lakshmi Vishwanathan
There are no short cuts to evolved and poignant Abhinaya. The
underlying aesthetic principles do not go out of fashion. A taste
for that kind of music first needs to be cultivated. The real work is in
internalizing the meaning and then sharing both melody and mood through
inspired song and dance. Such artistry would leave a lasting impression
on a sensitive listener and viewer. After all, great artists have shown
the way, and it is up to the present day Vidwans and mature dancers to
study the deeper aspects more seriously. Aesthetic principles never go
out of fashion.

Re- visiting a queen! by Lakshmi Vishwanathan
The most enigmatic character in Tamil history is the Chola queen
Sembiyan Mahadevi of the tenth century. I knew little about her until at
the suggestion of the great musician Semmangudi Srinivasa Iyer whom we
used to address and refer to as Semmangudi Mama, we visited the famous
temple of Konerirajapuram.
