The Madras Youth Choir (MYC) paid a musical tribute to the late Indian freedom fighter and social reformer, S Satyamurti. Satyamurti was a prominent leader in the Indian National Congress and played a significant role in Indiaโ€™s struggle for independence from British rule.

Whatโ€™s it about? The tribute, titled โ€œSatyamurti โ€“ A Legacy Told Through Music,โ€ featured songs and compositions that reflect Satyamurtiโ€™s life, ideals, and contributions to Indian society. The tribute was well-received by the audience and is part of a broader effort to promote awareness and appreciation of Satyamurtiโ€™s legacy.

Tussle with the pandemic: The Madras Youth Choir completed their golden jubilee a couple of years ago but found itself in a pit against the pandemic. The musicians, however, trained themselves as their instructors held classes using Google Meet and Zoom.

  • Now that the pandemic is over, the choir is back to running at full steam and is staging performances as well as training new musicians.
