| | M.L. Vasanthakumari Biography - AOL Music |
 | | Born into a family of singers, this supreme classical Indian carnatic vocalist was eventually known as MLV, an acronym standing for melody, laya, and vidwat, three essential components of her, and hopefully anyone else's, music. |
 | | As a child, the little MLV was already used as a support singer and also picked up training later on from the vocalist G.N. Balsubramaniam. |
 | | He was her first large influence, and the early stages of her music are marked by the same kind of rapid-fire phrasing and tricky rhythmic patterns that he was known for. |
