A truly musical family....

Today Shri Ramesh Narayan is accompanied at many of his concerts by his wife and
disciple, Hema. She is an exponent in Carnatic music who is also fortunate to have
trained under Parampoojya Guruji Pandit Jasrajji, for sometime. Shri Ramesh Narayan
is also blessed with two talented daughters, Madhuvanti and Madhushree, also
following in their father's footsteps.

A mellifluous career....

Shri Ramesh Narayan has enthralled audiences in several parts of India and abroad.
Blessed with vigorous and expressive voice, his renditions are noted for their
memorable felicity, depth of imagination and power to touch the listeners' heart.
Be it a weighty Khayal or a moving Bhajan, his renditions take the connoisseurs and
masses alike, to ecstatic heights.

Perhaps one of the most celebrated achievements is the 30-hour concert he had performed,
dedicated to his father and his guru, the late Narayan Bhagavathar and to
Pandit Mothiram, the exponent of Mewati Gharana.

On this memorable occasion, the press venerated him thus: "Popular Malayalee Musician,
Shri Ramesh Narayan, who was devoted himself to Hindhustani Music, has fulfilled his
greatest ambition of singing continuously for 30 hours, and created a world record. He
started his historic concert on October 8th, 1994 with 'Anandeswar Ardhanaree Nateswar'
in the Raag Bhairav....The 30 hour marathon concert went on smoothly and without
a break. At the end of it, Shri Ramesh Narayan wept like a child in ecstasy of his
achievement, and the crowd showered him with flowers and bouquets in appreciation
of the one who dared to scale new heights."

Gifted music composer and director, Shri Ramesh Narayan has composed, rendered
and directed music for several feature films and Television.
