    The Summer 2005 Concert will also feature a live youth orchestra which includes several talented musicians, most of whom are second generation Indian – Americans, trained in South Indian classical music in the United States, unlike our usual group of professional musicians who have had training in India. These young musicians are pursuing undergraduate studies at various universities, but have been giving concerts, and have won awards for their music, and additionally, will be brought together for the first time to provide live music for this concert. These young musicians are Roopa Mahadevan, vocals, Anil Narasimha, vocals and slide guitar, Shubha Chandralmouli, mridangam, Rangashree Varadarajan, violin, Malavika Kumar and Priya Sripathy, nattuvangam (cymbals). Artistic Director Mythili Kumar also presents a piece that was critically acclaimed at the recent Dance in California conference in Southern California. She presents Sudha’s story – a poem by Chitra Divakaruni –(Choreography by Mythili Kumar) that relates the tragedy of a woman trapped in a marriage to a possessive and chauvinistic husband. Rasika Kumar, who recently won acclaim for her performances in Chennai, India will also perform in this concert.
