Kadri Gopalnath an innovative artiste with high order of imagination is the first musician to adapt saxophone in carnatic music. It will not be an exaggeration to say that the saxophone gained so much prominence in classical music field solely because of him. Though many played classical music in this western instrument even in the Nathamuni Band of Tanjavur some sixty years ago Kadri Gopalnath is indeed the first to render a full fiedged concert without diluting the classical aspects. Kadri Gopalnath took to playing saxophone at a very later stage and earlier he was practicing vocal and other instruments. He has travelled widely over the length and breadth of India and over twenty foreign countries and performed several successful concerts.
