At Narayaneeyam
Music Library
A working collection of books on classical music and audio-video sources, kept on the campus at Ballapadavu — together with the recordings the trust has made and broadcast.
On the campus
A room of books, recordings and instruments
Narayaneeyam, the trust’s music campus at Ballapadavu, keeps its library on the completed ground floor — alongside the office, the guest room, the rehearsal hall, the instrument room, the open stage and the kitchen.
The collection is what the Prathishtanam has gathered for its students and its guest artists: books on classical music, together with audio and video sources of music. The instrument room stands beside it, and the campus has its own sound and recording system.

Enquiries
Consulted on the campus
The trust publishes no catalogue of the collection. The books and the audio-video sources are held at Narayaneeyam rather than online, so they are consulted on the campus itself — by students of the Vidyapeetam, and by visiting musicians during the camps and festivals held there.
If you are looking for a particular book, recording or broadcast, please write or telephone before you travel. The same office handles enquiries about visiting the Narayaneeyam Music Campus and about joining a class.
Come and listen
Concerts, camps and festivals at Narayaneeyam
The recordings above began as live programmes on the campus stage. The trust's series and festivals continue through the year, and the whole record is kept in the events archive.
