"The spiritual radiance from the fusion of musician and instrument suspended the room in an ocean of bliss."

"Sridhar's deliberate, contemplative style ... ended with a chattering colloquy between sarod and tabla that proved that Sridhar and Datar can play as rapturously as any of their peers."

"Sridhar expressed a universal tone language that can enchant even the most inexperienced listener."

"This music is to be heard in those quiet moments when the refinement and sheer skill of the playing can be appreciated."

"As thunder and lightning crashed over the raging surf outside, Indian maestro K. Sridhar hunkered down over his sarod and quietly, ever so slowly, took the audience into another world. ... his exquisite use of grace notes eventually drew in percussionist Tadahiro Wakabayashi on tabla, and together they brought the raga to a dizzying climax."

- Japan Times
August 1994 

"Sridhar is as arresting a personality as his sarod play is captivating. At 34, he has behind him no less than thirty years of total devotion to music, not just as a craft, not just as an art, but as disciplined whole soul devotion of the Divine."

- Marv, Indian Express, Madras

"Combining a dhrupad sense of melodicism with a strong use of Carnatic rhythmic elements, a Sridhar performance is a rare and distinctive offering — full of heart."

"K. Sridhar executed magnificent interpretations (of the raga), obtaining in his music a perfect balance between melody, technique, and sentiment. The skillful concert was enjoyed to the maximum by around 1800 youth, adults, and seniors who jammed the cultural center."

"Indeed, listening to just a few minutes of Mr. Sridhar's music is not only spiritual, but it makes you feel as if you've been transported to an exotic mystical place."

"K. Sridhar is the Hendrix of the Sarod. While listening to his music one can close one's eyes and go on a journey to the outer limits of one's imagination....True Nirvana!"

- Ma Ariv, Israel

"K. Sridhar is not only a faultless technician but also a musician, an improviser for whom the means are not the end; an artist who is able to share with us the immense emotional quality of a music which is totally foreign to our musical language. His music is not only enjoyable, not only an art, but also an aspiration toward spiritual bliss."

- Alain Swietlik, Telerama, France
March, 1982 

"Sridhar may have won on his technical expertise but his concert gave us a glimpse into that infinite universe which inspires great music."

- Kjeld Frandsen, Berlingske Tidene, Denmark
October, 1991 

"K. Sridhar may have the unusual distinction of being the only South Indian sarod player in the country but that is not his only distinction. He is a sarod player with very good tone, keen structural sense, and good grasp of the Ali Akbar idiom. He also has an eye to the dramatic possibilities inherent in the notes of ragas."

- Nilaksha Gupta, Times of India, Calcutta
July, 1980 

 K. Sridhar's music ..."opens our hearts and probes deep into our soul."
