  • Bereft of Gamaka,  the Saxophone recital of  Lavanya & Subbulaxmi  drew audience  attention more by  novelty than by  nuances.

                                                                --- S.V.K.  –The Hindu

  • “Storming a male bastion” 

Saxophone  playing in India is no longer the preserve of men,  Thanks to the likes of  M.S.Lavanya & M.S.Subbulaxmi. Saxophone is a difficult instrument even for men. These sisters were amaizing.
---The Hindu.

  • “Saxophone Sensation”

Saxophone sisters M.S.Lavanya & M.S.Subbulaxmi  must be the only sister duo in the entire country  who play this western wind instrument  and at that with  such remarkable  flair & panache. Its not at all easy to play this instrument  as it requires efficient  breath control.
