While being in the lime light of art and cultural space, Kurisummoottil Biju Easo Issac had passed away on Jan 1989. To retain his memories, we started a cultural institution BIJU MEMORIAL SCHOOL OF MUSIC AND DANCE. Now it has grown to its peak with the blessings of art lovers, cultural personalities & public and attained a renowned space in the cultural map of Thiruvalla. Even after several years has passed, it is still placed as a model institution in central Travancore. We achieved this with the combined effort from a group of sincere & experienced faculties and management. From the beginning we have ensured that each subject needs to be handled by skilled professionals in that area, so that every stone will be polished to a diamond and become a promising talent in future. Our institution is functioning according to the charitable act and is recognised by Kerala Sangeetha Nadaka Academy. We always strive to maintain the quality standards laid down by the same. The institution was inaugurated by renowned music director and playback singer M.G Radhakrishnan on 28-03-1999. This trust is functioning under the presidency of Sri.Babu Issac and famous violinist Sri. Thiruvalla Gopalakrishnan serving as Principal. This institution resides at the heart of Thiruvalla town-Kurisukavala. SANGEETHA NADAKA ACADEMY RECOGNITION
