About the Teacher: Shuwehtha Premkumar is an experienced Veena artist. Her first success was being the youngest in Malaysia to complete her Veena Arangetram (veena graduation), at the age of 12 in her hometown, Seremban. Her mother Acharya Ratna Guru Vidushi Jayalakshmi Premkumar was the key person for her to be a successful Vainika as she is today. She then continued her training in Andhra Pradesh and Chennai, India.
She participated in the Global Council of Performing Arts & Culture organized by ABSS from Pune, India in Singapore and won the Gold Medal. She was the FIRST veena artist to bloom and receive the award as the judges from Pune, India were dazzled by her fingering skills and speed on the veena. They later introduced her to perform in their next concerts in India.
By judging Shuwehtha’s excellence in her performance at plucking the veena, she was conferred the title, “VEENADHARI” by the one and only Veena Chakravarthi Vidwan Shri D. Srinivas, a prominent veena legend artist from Andhra Pradesh, India.
