Mysore Vasudevachar (May 28, 1865 - May 17, 1961) was a composer of Carnatic music and a famous singer.
Vasudevachar was born in Mysore and started learning music from Veena Padmanabhiah, the chief musician of the Mysore court. He then went on to learn from the famous composer Patnam Subramanya Iyer. Vasudevachar eventually became the chief court musician at the Mysore court.
Vasudevachar's compositions were mostly in Telugu and Sanskrit. Some of his most popular kritis include Brochevarevarura in Khamas, Devadideva in Sunadavinodini and Mamavatu Sri Saraswati in Hindolam. He published a large number of his compositions in the book Vasudeva Kirtana Manjari.
