To

Dear Sir,

I am a student of the third year Biotechnology course at Anna University. I have

been learning Carnatic music for more than 10 years and at present I am under the
able guidance of Smt. Padma Sandilyan.(disciple of Sri.K.V.Narayanaswami) and
Sri.Srimushanam Raja Rao & Smt.Shantha Subramanyam. I have a strong
foundation in music, knowledge of several kritis and I am well versed with ragam,
neraval and kalpana swaram singing.

I have been in Chennai only for the past two years and hence, have just started
giving performances in the city.

I hope that you will give me an opportunity to showcase my talent to the fullest and
encourage me in my musical endeavour.

I look forward to hearing from you soon..

Yours truly,

Aditya Venkatesh.
