An fascinating and exciting vocalist, Sudha Ragunathan's process has been powerfully championed by Dr. Winston Banchacharam's Nanuet, NY-based Amutham label. She well-read from the acclaimed songstress M.L. Vasanthakumari. In June 1988 she was awarded the rubric Amutha Isai Vani (a Tamil acknowledgement of the nectar-sweet theology of her voice) by the Ikankai Thamil Sangam organisation in the U.S.A. in recognition of her achievements for Tamil song. She is visualised with this prize on Tamil Melodies from Amutha Isai Vani Sudha Ragunathan (Amutham WS 001). Her voice is a joy, and on the effectiveness of her Amutham output signal an exploration of her recordings on AVM and EMI India is warranted.
