On October 10th, ,the inimitable Carnatic diva, Oscar nominee Bombay Jayasri will be featured in the new AISD Performing Arts Center. Born into a family of musicians with rich lineage and steeped in pedigree music, Bombay Jayashri Ramnath represents the fourth generation of music practitioners in her family.  Jayashri is today among the most sought after Carnatic musicians. The myriad aficionados, spanning generations, that throng her concerts would bear ample testimony to this. Her work has won her the acclaim of prestigious institutions in India and abroad. Another dimension to music which Jayashri is focused on is in exploring the therapeutic and healing value that music can generate. She has been working closely with institutions caring for autistic children to help open up their senses through the medium of music. This is a deep and long commitment which she has taken on and a very laudable one at that. THE LIFE OF PI, which was described by President Obama as “an elegant proof of God and the power of storytelling” was nominated for eleven Oscar nominations and got four awards (85th Academy awards). Bombay Jayashri was nominated for the original musical score.
