At the Sri Seshadripuram Ramaseva Samithi, Vidyabhushana was honoured for his 25 years of performances, without a break at the samithi. “When I started singing for the samithi, I used to see only sand around the college premises where people sat and listened even for four hours at a stretch. The ambience and open-air cool breeze has always been inviting,” says Vidyabhushana, who holds a Doctorate in ‘Haridaasa Haadugalalli Sangeetha,’ from the Hampi University.
