I hope it will encourage greater cultural and educational collaboration in the months and years ahead," Street said.īesides receiving the honorary doctorate, Mahadevan will also lead several collaborative projects at the University's Royal Birmingham Conservatoire and STEAMhouse creative hubs. "Given the strength of the Indian diaspora in our region, it's wonderful to celebrate the 'living bridge' between India and the West Midlands by honouring Shankar Mahadevan - a titan of film and music. The West Midlands trade mission, led by Mayor Andy Street, seeks to cement existing economic ties between India's sub-regions and the West Midlands. "We have had the pleasure of him visiting our Royal Birmingham Conservatoire previously, and we look forward to his return so we can build on our relationship with him and strengthen our already strong ties with India further," Beer said. "I am delighted to have extended the invitation for Shankar to come over to Birmingham in the New Year to receive his Honorary Doctorate in person. He had toured the RBC with fellow Indian musicians including tabla maestro Zakir Hussain earlier this year, met with students, staff and partners, and committed to exploring links and opportunities between his Shankar Mahadevan Academy and the Conservatoire.Īt the Mumbai trade mission event, BCU Deputy Vice-Chancellor Professor Julian Beer formally invited Mahadevan to receive the award at a ceremony next year.
The announcement comes after Mahadevan's visit to the BCU campus, featuring state-of-the-art creative industry facilities and schools, including the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire (RBC). We've heard musicians from the Conservatoire perform especially for us at our visit and it was just outstanding - I saw a beautiful collaboration that will happen," the 55-year-old musician said in a statement.

"I am looking forward to some amazing music being created between Indian musicians whom I represent and musicians from the West Midlands. Mahadevan graduated in 1988 with a degree in computer science and software engineering from the Ramrao Adik Institute of Technology in Navi Mumbai. When I started my career, never did I expect that one day I would be awarded a doctorate in music." It's something new and will take some time for me to digest this feeling.
