Apr 22, 2020
New Delhi, April 22 (ANI): A new Earth Anthem aimed at expressing solidarity amid the growing pandemic of Covid-19 has been released by legendary musicians Dr L Surbramaniam, Kavita Krishnamurti and poet and diplomat Abhay K, to mark the celebrations of Earth Day. The song is inspired by the Indian ideal 'Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam' which loosely translates to 'the world is one family' which the song composers feel is the most relevant in recent times as the entire world battles a common enemy - coronavirus. While Subramaniam has produced both the music and the video of the anthem, the song has been penned by poet-diplomat Abhay K and has been sung by Kavita Krishnamurti, Subramaniam, and Bindu Subramaniam. The anthem was originally produced in 2017 by the famous violinist Dr L Subramaniam. The anthem has been translated into over 50 different languages spoken in different parts of the world. The maestro has also been recently appointed as the ambassador of the Earth Day Network which is celebrating the golden jubilee of Earth Day this year.
