Mysore V. Doreswamy Iyengar (1920 – 28 October 1997) was a Carnatic musician and one of the greatest exponents of the Veena in modern Indian history. He was awarded the Madras Music Academy's Sangeetha Kalanidhi in 1984. Born into a family of classical musicians, he was the son of Venkatesha Iyengar, a Vainika and musician in the court of the Maharaja of Mysore.

Ustad Amjad Ali Khan Bangash is an eminent Indian Sarod player. For his great achievements in taking the Sarod places, he is popularly known as the ‘Sarod Samrat’. Born into a family of classical musicians and Sarod players, Amjad went on to modify the instrument and often experimented with it, and this helped him outshine many stalwarts. He has taken Sarod to great heights by collaborating with many western musicians. He is also credited with spreading the knowledge about this classical instrument all over the world. Ustad Amjad Ali Khan continues to teach Sarod to students across the globe.
