Book Description

Foreword

 

Sangeet Natak Akademi's Fellowships and Awards constitute a roll of honour in the field of performing arts in India. They have been bestowed on outstanding musicians, dancers, and theatre artists, as also scholars in these disciplines. They mark a lifetime of achievement in the arts in Independent India. These honours have their origin in the President's Awards to musicians, the first mark of recognition accorded by the Republic of India to performing artists of the country, between 1952 and 1953. The President's Awards ceased as Sangeet Natak Akademi came into existence in 1953, taking on a function appropriate to its charter of foundation. The first set of Awards were given by the Akademi in 1954.

 

This volume is a record of the citations to Fellows and Award- winners of Sangeet Natak Akademi from the year 1954 to 2010. They are presented in chronological order, as they were published in the form of booklets distributed at each investiture over these fifty-seven years. They are made available here as a record of documents, and do not purport to serve as a who's who or biographical dictionary in the field. Therefore this volume is hoped to attract the attention of researchers in music, dance, and drama, as well as policy-makers and administrators. To those who have followed the course of these arts over the years, this volume may also be of value, enabling a backward glance and recall of favourite artists. A separate table towards the end of the volume provides composite data in respect of the Fellows and Awardees, namely their field of specialization, the year of Award, date of birth/date of demise, national awards received, and the State to which they belong. In addition, to facilitate reference to artists, irrespective of the year they were honoured by Sangeet Natak Akademi, an alphabetical index is also provided. The spellings of names and terms here are as per the original citations. Citations for the President's Awards for Music are not available; it is uncertain if they were published in 1952 and 1953.

 

We hope this publication will be found useful by readers in the field.
