Ambi Subramaniam is a distinguished Indian violinist, renowned for his virtuosic talent and compelling performances that seamlessly blend the rich traditions of Indian classical music with elements of Western classical. Born into a family where music runs in the blood, he is the son of the legendary violinist Dr. L. Subramaniam, and thus has been ingrained with a deep musical heritage from a young age. Ambi has honed his skills under the tutelage of his father and has emerged as a prodigious talent, often hailed as "the new king of Indian classical violin."

While deeply rooted in the classical Carnatic tradition, Ambi's repertoire spans a wide range of genres which is evident in his recent releases. From challenging Western classical pieces like "Paganini Caprice No. 24" and "The Dance of the Goblins, Op. 25," to traditional Indian compositions such as "Begada Tillana" and "Sri Chakra Raja," his versatility shines through. His skill in adapting modern songs is showcased in violin covers like "Hardum Humdum" and "Unnai Kaandhu Naan," which combine the intricacies of Indian technique with popular melodies. Ambi's work on film soundtracks, including "Second Show (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)" and its Sinhala counterpart, alongside thematic conceptual pieces like "Bhagirathi (From 'Songs Of The River - Ganga')," exhibit his proficiency in evoking mood and narrative through his instrument.
