Raj Rajagopalan Voice Techniques Channel

Raj Rajagopalan was trained primarily in Carnatic music for over thirty years in India and the United States. He is a disciple of the doyen Trichy Sri Swaminatha Iyer (Mumbai, India) and of the veteran musician Srimati Simantini Kouta (Bedminster, New Jersey). He has given many Carnatic concerts where he focuses on innovation that amplifies the composer's intent. He has received Western classical voice training from Tim Glemser (Phoenix, Arizona) for the past four years. In 2018, Raj gave a concert titled “The Many Colors of Love, a musical celebration” accompanied by Tim Glemser on piano at the ASU School of Music Recital Hall, in which he presented conventional Carnatic compositions in an unconventional arrangement with piano interpretation.
