Remind me about this event

Vishnu Shankar is part of the beating heart of authentic Indian classical dance in Ireland – keeping tradition, discipline and purity as key pillars for the students of Sree Shiva Academy. As a seasoned Nattuvanar, choreographer and director – Vishnu showcases his raw talent in his first live orchestra solo debut recital.

Transcendent talents requires an orchestra that harmonizes with him, which is why world renowned artists will be joining Vishnu on stage this Spring.

Sri Arun Gopinath’s vocals transcend boundaries and weaves magic. His voice is unbeatable when matched with the rhythmic beats of Sri Kiran Gopinath who plays the mridangam like the beat of his own heart – fiercely and powerfully. There is only one flautist who quells the audience with his soothing music and that is Sri Ragunath Savithry, and to match his mystical abilities is Sri Soundarajan, a renowned professor and composer on the veena, who blooms with mystical talent.
