- “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 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.
