About

Sujatha’s musical exploration began with the piano at the age of 7. Her mentors include flutists Alberto Almarza and Paula Robison, with whom she studied at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston. At NEC she received a Bachelor of Music in Classical Flute Performance. Several years later she became an improvisational artist and began composing original music. A child of Indian immigrants, she was immersed in the sounds of Indian music from a young age, which has greatly influenced the way she hears and relates to music. She now blends a variety of sounds and forms in her unique style.

Sujatha’s music and her essay entitled Melting into Beauty has been featured on world renowned meditation teacher & philosopher Rupert Spira’s blog.

Music from her 2024 album The Great Intimacy has been set to contemplative prose by Sufi poets Ayn-al-Qużāt Hamadānī and Hafiz, read by Samaneri Jayasara on the internationally beloved Wisdom of the Masters channel on YouTube.

Sujatha performs with her world fusion music ensemble Transparent Radiance, along with Alexander Karvelas a.k.a. dros on sitar/oud, in and around the San Francisco Bay Area.

Sujatha’s musical sensibility arises spontaneously from her mystical relationship with life. Her improvisations and compositions are channeled to evoke a sense of beauty from the wellspring of interconnectedness.
