Lakshman Joseph de Saram is an internationally acclaimed Film Composer, classical musician &#38; Artistic Director of the Chamber Music Society of Colombo.We begin our conversation by looking at Lakshman’s childhood – the social milieu he grew up in as well as the circumstances of his household, which were early invitations to the world of classical music. Lakshman is asked whether he had an unfair advantage given his upbringing when he entered the world of music and composing, and whether someone without this exceptional background could also aspire to become what he is today.Via http://groundviews.org/2014/03/02/in-conversation-with-lakshman-joseph-de-saram/source: www.groundviews.org
