Child wonder strikes the right chord



Siddharth Nagarajan

Siddharth Nagarajan was the youngest drummer to enter the Limca Book of records in 2003. He is now listed in the Limca Book as the youngest musician to record the theme music for a film "Jenjil Jil Jil" under music director Imaan.

Born in September 1997, Siddharth began performing when he was just two and half years old.

To date, he has given over 1,000 performances in India and abroad. He received the Rajiv Gandhi award in 2005 and the Ugadi Puraskar in 2003. He first composed music for `Jai Shri Hanuman'.

His most cherished moment to date was in October 2004 when he performed before President A.P.J. Abdul Kalam during the latter's birthday celebrations.

Siddharth and Uma Shankar (son of Ghatam Meastro Vikku Vinayakaram) will perform at a CD release function on March 10 at Music Academy Mini Hall. Moser Baer India and Nagis have brought out the music CD titled "Drum Feast".
