Chatravata
We’re Chatravata, four friends who sing Carnatic music. Through our performances, we raise funds for blind and underprivileged children in India.
Welcome
The four of us are learning Carnatic music, the classical tradition of South India, with our teachers. We sing at concerts and events, and through our performances we raise funds for blind and underprivileged children in India.
Music has given us a lot, and we want to give something back. Look around, watch us sing, learn more about us, and see how you can help.
About Us
Chatravata is four high schoolers singing Carnatic music together. We perform to support blind and underprivileged children in India.
We learn Carnatic music from our teachers and practice regularly.
Performing helps us grow as singers, while raising funds for blind and underprivileged children in India. That’s really the whole idea.
