Talk:Surendran Reddy

Vale Surendran
I am very sad to hear that my childhood friend Surendran Reddy has died. I was nine, I think, in Bulawayo and studying oboe and piano at the Rhodesian academy of Music. My teacher was Miss Sterling; one day she said come and meet Surendran, you can study with him under Mr Walker. Mr Walker was very tall and very serious. He had a careful English voice and was a wonderful teacher. That very first day he set us both to learning a harpsichord piece. Over a few subsequent lessons it became very plain that Surendran was much better than me, and he went off into the world of piano with Mr Walker, leaving me pottering along with the oboe. Everyone knew Surendran was destined for great things. Our paths diverged. years later I heard him on the radio being interviewed - and he sounded just like Mr Walker! I watched Surendran from afar as one watched a shining light in the darkness. I wonder how he died? Can anyone enlighten me? Lgh (talk) 11:53, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
 * He died as a result of an illness. I met him once in Konstanz, he was a nice guy. S3b123 (talk) 09:56, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
