Dr Mangalampalli Balamurali Krishna was born in 1930 in Andhra Pradesh. Among our distinguished Carnatic vocalists, Balamurali Krishna was a student of Parupalli Ramakrishnaiah Pantulu. Gifted with a mellifluous voice, he has created his own style known for its lyrical appeal. He has also composed a whole range of Kritis, Varnams, Padams, Tillanas as well as new ragas. He has to his credit a number of books. Balamurali Krishna has served on the staff of All India Radio and was principal of the college of Music and Dance at Vijayawada. He has performed widely in India and abroad. He received the Padma Shri in 1971 and subsequently the Padma Vibhushan, the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award in 1975, the Sangeeta Kalanidhi title from the Music Academy, Madras in 1979, Asthana Vidwan T.T Devasthanam National Award as best playback singer and Music Director, and the prestigious Hridaynath Mangeshkar award.
