Where music, stories and technology converge.
A creative world spanning orchestral composition, contemporary sound, literary fiction and intelligent music-making tools.
A world of music, words and ideas
One creative mind. Many forms of expression.
CR Srikanth, also known as Ravi Chandra Srikanth Cherukupalli, is a composer, recording artist, fiction writer and creative-technology innovator.
His work moves between classical composition and contemporary pop, between literary storytelling and the building of new tools for musical creation. From orchestral scores to published fiction, and from VS Pop™ to the CuTTI tools, it explores the different ways imagination can take form.

Wheat for the Living
In the small Bulgarian town of Belogradets, Yavor Velev grows up between a family that lives for appearances and one that keeps score, and slowly learns that being useful, or admired, is not the same as being worth something.
Half and One
The Attic Record
Lindenfeld, August 1958. Sent to the attic for a tablecloth, a seven-year-old finds an old gramophone and listens alone to Haydn’s “Emperor” Quartet. Decades later, after his mother’s funeral, he learns what that afternoon meant to her.
Tales from Bellavere and Lindenfeld
Linked stories from two small European towns that appear on no map. Across generations, families pass down loyalties, recipes, music, houses, debts and secrets: a mechanic, a chocolatier, a struggling theatre company, a singing palazzo, and a boy changed by a forgotten gramophone record.
