OMG, even after achieving so much he's so humble. He says that he feels nervous to play in front of legends, does he even realize he himself is a legend?

Each time i feel i have achieved something in life i hear to srinivas speaking and realize the true meaning of humility. If one thing I can learn anything from this genius is to be humble in spite of his amazing skills and popularity. You are connecting us to GOD when you perform.

[@vanitharaob3598]

Humility thy name is legendery Srinivas

[@rajananantharaman4298]

Many thanks for2 things Unforgettable mandolin shrinivas and equally. Charukesi

[@anandbhanu10]

There are two instrumentalists in carnatic music who could play the notes with utter grace and skill and they are Lalgudi Jayaraman and U.Srinivas.. This event is a befitting one to show the compositions of the former being played by the latter. Nothing could have excelled this!!

[@sankaramurthy4516]

I HAVE BEEN WATCHING THIS BOY SINCE 1976 -77 AND TODAY I FEEL SADDENED WITHOUT HIM I ONLY DERIVE CONSOLATION FROM HIS MELODIES. A TRUE EMBODIMENT OF BHAKTI AND DEDICATION WITH GODDESSS SARASWATHI IN HIM

[@madhusoodhananpillaicr9027]

When the eternal fingers touch Unheard pours So blessed to hear this concert ❤️

[@bimasu]

What a child like glow and enthusiasm on Shri Shrinivas’ face while he described his Boston experience! Paramatma is not entirely merciless- he has at least left us with these recordings.

[@ushasv1239]

Biggest loss to Music. I regret not being seen you on live concert but always watched you on Doordarshan and You tube. It was my wish to see you perform live. You will stay with us forever. May your soul rest in peace. May god bless your family with lot of courage and strength to accept your loss.

[@asriramv]

Child prodigy and Master of mandolin music, you treated us so well. What a great soul,simple ever smiling, music concerts will never be complete.God's own child come back.

[@vismayalife]

You can observe he is telling this Raaga received 3 times Standing ovation... Never he uses 'I' got standing ovation.. Lot to learn from this Legend. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@tsravishankar]

One of the greatest legends of all time for the world of music. A very modest human being despite the genius he is. Can't digest the fact that he is no more. May his soul rest in peace. May he bless us all from the heavens.

[@metipallearuna223]

Grace and humility grow to 🎶 in his mellifluous dexterity of moving our hearts. Simple as canticles to muse.

[@metipallearuna223]

His music cannot remain silent,is something that cannot be expressed in words. May God continue to bless us with simplicity incarnate.

[@krishnants2007]

No one can replace you Srinivas sir , You were an embodiment of dedication ...When born talent practice with great dedication then we common man get amrutha dhara ... Great solute ... RIP

[@Ambijaya79]

Speech of Mandoline shows his humility. His charukesi varnam ,a melody ragam make me shed tears. . We the rasikas miss him a lot . Perhaps god would like to listen his music . He had catched him from us.

[@srinivasanrangarajan6510]

What a great master . Achieved upto skylevel as prodigy.Amazing Humble person ,I moved very close with him

[@sundaresansita4458]

என்ன பணிவு, நீங்கள் பிறவி மேதை . உங்களை போன்றவர்களிடம் மட்டுமே இது போன்ற கல்யாண சௌலப்ய குணங்கள் காண முடியும். மீண்டும் உம் குரல் கேட்டு அழுது கொண்டே இருக்கிறேன் கண்ணா. உன் இசையால் என் மனதை வருடி சமாதானமும் செய்கிராய். 👍 மீண்டும் உன்னை நாங்கள் எதாவது பிறவியில் கண்டிப்பாக சந்திப்போம். பரம் பொருள் அதை நடத்தி வைக்க வேண்டுகிறேன்.

[@saishakthimaharajan]

I was there during this live concert.I met my beloved friend Sri U Shrinivas avl for the last time .

[@SudhirKumar-vb5yc]

A huge loss. His fingers created a wizardry on mandolin. Truly a maestro. RIP

[@bufatutuagonistes8876]

Was listening to U. Srinivas, who this Jewish boy from Boston and the high peaks of the White Mtns., absolutely adores, and googled something about him and up came the story of his death two weeks ago. His music has given me great joy since I first encountered him in Remember Shakti ten or so years ago. I've listened to a lot of his work, some of it to my taste and some of it not, without regard to genre. His ability to make my heart soar is up there with the best: R. Shankar, Clapton, Coltrane, Hendrix, M. Davis, and even McLaughlin at his best. Some of the music on the three Remember Shakti CDs is as beautiful as anything I've heard in my long life. Srinivas's collaborations and songs played with his fellow South Indian musicians are equally amazing. The interplay with tablaists and violin and other instruments is just extraordinarily creative and engaged. Highly recommend the albums Mandolin Melodies and Modern Mandolin Maestro. The song Ninnuvina on Mandolin Melodies just takes my breath away--It is Love Supreme with drone! I'm not religious, and so not sure what to say. As one of the "fortunate ones", music has played a central role in my life since the mid-1960s. Srinivas is one of the Great Ones. Thanks to NPR for letting me know! This video itself is very very beautiful. Srinivas is just stunning in performance.

[@rajananantharaman4298]

Thanks for the incomparable mandolin shrinivas and his respect shown to older greats ex lalgudi

[@manjulamn186]

He is gone and even today I cry when I listen to his music. Missing him so badly...

[@umasankar.r7320]

I bow my head to three persons who were made to born in the world and leave the globe in their mid 30s. They are Adi Shankara, Ramanujam- god of mathematics n come our beloved child-like legend U. Srinivas. Would they have born somewhere? Would we be able to realise n see them. Tears are the answers. Pranams, pranams, pranams.

So sad that we lost this genius in such a young age. We shall miss you, Srinivas !!!!!

మనం ఓ మహా సంగీత ప్రాజ్నుణ్ణీ అతి పిన్న వయసులో కోల్పోవటం బహు శోచనీయం . కనకదుర్గమ్మ తల్లి ఆ మహనీయుని ఆత్మకి శాంతి చేకూర్చి వారి కుటుంబానికి ఆత్మ స్థైర్యాన్ని ప్రసాదించాలని ప్రార్ధిస్తున్నాను దేవులపల్లి శ్రీనివాస మూర్తి : విజయవాడ WE LOST A MUSIC LEGEND AT A VERY TENDER AGE - A VERY SAD EVENT. I PRAY KANAKADURGA MAATHA OF VIJAYAWADA TO ACCORD PEACE TO THE GREAT SOUL AND STRENGTH TO SUSTAIN THE VOID IN THE HEARTS OF HIS FAMILY MEMBERS AND HIS VAST FANS WORLD OVER.

His early demise was such a great loss of India music world

[@kudalaMangalooru]

U. Srinivas, child prodigy, mandolin maestro and a wonderful human being. So sad he died today at a very young age of 45. Hard to believe. Rest in peace. I hope you can come back to earth again. We need musicians like you to turn this sad world around. We will re-live your musical legacy.

There was and can be one and only prodigy,that is U.Srinivas.The rest can at most be caricatures that would like to pass off as prodigies but in reality,they are far from being called so and much less before Srinivas's prodigious talent.Watch out,he is going to come back in a new avatar of celestial music.

RIP Mandolin Maestro... always humble and smiling...ever since I first saw him in a concert at a temple near my home when he was just a teenager, but a celebrity already!!

[@buddhavarapumurthy8953]

A true maestro, a legend and yet humble to the core! World music has lost a irreplaceable genius at such a young age. Sadgathi.

[@VASUDEVAV.]

Awesome

[@SethuHareendran]

May your Great Soul rest in peace. I still remember that cool evening concert near Koppa in Chikkamagalur in 2007 when you along with Rajesh played fusion. I had a cassette recorder and recorded your entire concert and used to listen to it again and again during my stay in Sringeri for about one year. Later on though the cassette caught fungus and rendered useless, your melody still plays in the ears. Will miss you so much... :-(

[@govindacalcutta2078]

This is not a particularly good performance from Srinivas and it still reaches musical heights that few musicians ever can. And this is just a terrible off night for him. What a soul!

[@vishalpatel6969]

i heard he is legend ...i love music but not able to grasp and understand...if i heard it in background i feel good but when i focus too much i dont feel same way...is it due to lil exposure to such music? i would love to know...
