We are delighted to announce the launch of the Karnataka Music Rural Empowerment program by the Karnataka Classical Music Confederation Trust (KCMC) on April 18th, 2024. This groundbreaking initiative aims to empower rural communities through the enchanting melodies of Karnataka Music, fostering cultural enrichment and socio-economic development.
The Karnataka Music Rural Empowerment Program is an innovative initiative dedicated to spreading Carnatic music across the state by offering free music education to underprivileged children in rural areas. Through this program, KCMC aims to discover and nurture talent among village youth, providing them with access to the enriching and transformative qualities of Carnatic music. By reaching out to grassroots communities, we seek to not only empower individuals but also preserve and promote our cultural heritage.
Additionally, we are proud to unveil the inaugural celebration of the Mysore Vasudevacharya Jayanti, scheduled to take place on May 26th and 27th, 2024. This momentous event, organized by KCMC, will honour the legendary composer Mysore Vasudevacharya for his invaluable contributions to Karnataka music. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Smt. Revathi Kamath, a distinguished philanthropist, environmentalist, leading landscape designer, Veena Player, and the mother of ZERODA founders, and now the Vice-President of KCMC for her generous support in making this event possible.
