On turning 75 on Sept 13, 2007...

" O Lord !
 Make my body, the stem;
 Make my head, the gourd;
 Make my nerves, the wire;
 Make my fingers, the plectrum;
 Play thy heavenly twelve notes;
 Holding me close to your heart.

-- Adaptation of Basaveshwara's vachana by Prabha Atrre
 
 

 
         "My music should identify with me.  It should reflect my thinking and musical values. It should have qualities of both the heart and the head. It should sing through time and space.

            I also want to be a good human being".


- Prabha Atre
