Quoted on M. S. Subbulakshmi
← Back to M. S. Subbulakshmi Profile
“The singing legend lives on her suprabathams (morning prayer songs) and bhajansbhajans.”
“Subbalakshmi was indeed the icon who could bring the world to its knees:her rendering moved Yehudi Menuhin to tears, Bade Gulam Ali Khan called her "Suswaralakshmi Subbulakshmi", while Helen Keller once said “You sing like an angel”. She could captivate the people with an occasional lift of an eyebrow and a beatific smile-meant not for the audience but for the divine.”
