 c and other styles from an early age. He started studying the vocals at th
 e age of two then violin at five then mridangam at seven. At the age of se
 ven\, Shankar gave his first public concert\, at a Ceylonese temple\, Nall
 ur Kandaswamy. In 1958\, Shankar and his two older brothers\, formed the V
 iolin Trio along with Palghat Mani Iyer which made history in the 20th cen
 tury Carnatic music scene. He gained a large following performing with som
 e of the most eminent names in Carnatic music\, playing all through India\
 , and was highly sought after by legendary musicians such as Chembai Vaith

 rding to Downbeat music magazine critic Lee Underwood\, "All three are mas
 terpieces\, of which the deeply moving and technically astonishing Handful
  of Beauty will stand tall in recorded history for decades to come." Websi
