Chitravina Ravikiran made headlines as the world’s youngest prodigy at the age of two (in 1969), identifying and demonstrating 325 ragas, (melodies) 175 talas (rhythmic patterns) and answering numerous other questions. He presented his first vocal concert at 5, first chitravina recital when he was 12 and set a record with a non-stop show for 24 hours when he was 18.

“Perhaps the world's greatest slide player… a one-time adorable child prodigy… even more impressive as an adult”  - Radio National, Australia
“The program was distinguished by Ravikiran's ravishing playing… an arresting virtuoso…” - Los Angeles Times, USA
‘If you do not believe in God, just take a look at Ravikiran’, says Pandit Ravi Shankar
