Lakshminarayana Global Music Festival
Dr. L. Subramaniam and the late Viji Subramaniam as a tribute to Dr.
Subramaniam’s father and Guru Professor V. Lakshminarayana launched
the Lakshminarayana Global Music Festival in 1992. In recognition of
Professor V. Lakshminarayana’s contribution to Indian Music, the Government
of India released a special commemorative Stamp and a special cover
on him on 14th of April 2004.
The Lakshminarayana Global Music Festival is unique because it is the
only festival where eminent artists from around the globe perform on
the same stage. Different cultural traditions blend harmoniously to
spread the message of peace. The Lakshminarayana Global Music Festival
has been held in India, the United States, Germany (in conjunction with
the Berlin Festival), Sri Lanka, France, Australia, Malaysia, Singapore
and Norway.
It has featured musicians from countries including: Baluchistan, China,
Cuba, Denmark, Finland, Germany, India, Iran, Ivory Coast, Japan, Norway,
Pakistan, Russia, Sweden, Senegal, UK and USA.
Artists who have participated in the Lakshminarayana Global Music Festival
include: Lord Yehudi Menuhin, Steven Seagal, Larry Coryell, Smt. M.S.
Subbulakshmi, Ustad Bismillah Khan, Pandit Jasraj, Pandit Kishan Maharaj,

Ustad Zakir Hussain, Arve Tellefsen, Pandit Ram Narayan, Jean Luc Ponty,

In 1997, the Lakshminarayana International award was instituted. The
first award was given to Lord Yehudi Menuhin and was presented by The
President of India, His Excellency Sri K. R. Narayanan. The award was
subsequently given to Smt. M.S. Subbulakshmi, Sri Semmangudi Srinivasa
Iyer, Ustad Bismillah Kham, Pandit V. G. Jog, Pandit Jasraj and Jean
