The goal of the Yuva Yamini initiative is to provide a platform, to young aspiring practitioners, for public performance before an audience of classical music enthusiasts and to serve as a launch-pad in the hope, that the recognition and exposure they get, will inspire and propel them forward in their study and practice of classical music. Hence this event should not be looked at as a competition.
