About
Ghatam G. Chandrasekara Sharma was born to Shri T.H. Gurumoorthy and Smt. G. Hemavathy on 11th of July 1990. He is a graduate in Commerce from the University of Madras. Shri Gurumoorthy is brother of Shri T.H. Vinayakram (Vikku) and T.H. Subashchandran. He is son of Late T.R. Harihara Sharma, founder of The Jaya Ganesh Tala Vadya Vidhyalaya. Born into a lineage of accomplished musicians, Chandra Sekara Sharma did not lack any motivation to take a liking to music. His father, himself a noted Violinist, inculcated the superiority of Carnatic music as early as when he was 5 years old and gave him beginner's lessons for playing the Ghatam. While he was practising under his father's guidance, his capacity to understand the higher learnings of the instrument was discovered by Shri T.H. Subash Chandran, his paternal uncle, who is a well established Guru both in India and abroad. With the blessings of his parents, his guru and his uncle Shri T.H. Vinayakram, he has taken to playing the Ghatam on a professional level. His debut concert was for Smt. Sulochana Pattabhiram in the year 2000
