We deeply regret the passing away of Bhaskaran's Guru Mayavaram Saraswathi Ammal on 17th Aug at Chennai. The music world has lost a veteran and an extraordinary person who excelled in various skills like vocal, flute, veena etc, and above all was a teacher-par-excellence. May her soul rest in peace.
