'''Karaikudi Sambasiva Iyer''' (1888 - 1958) was noted [[India]]n classical musician and [[Veena]] player.

In 1952, he was amongst the first awardees of the [[List of Sangeet Natak Akademi fellows|Sangeet Natak Akademi Fellowship]] the highest honour conferred by [[Sangeet Natak Akademi]], India's National Academy for Music, Dance and Drama.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sangeetnatak.gov.in/sna/fellowslist.htm |title=SNA: List of Sangeet Natak Akademi ''Ratna Puraskar''winners (Akademi Fellows) |publisher=SNA Official website |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304023617/http://sangeetnatak.gov.in/sna/fellowslist.htm |archive-date= 4 March 2016 }}</ref>

==Early life==
Sambasiva Iyer was born in 1888 in Tirugokarnam, Pudukottai district as the second son to Veena Vidwan Subbiah Iyer. Sambasiva Iyer learnt Veena from his father along with his elder brother Subbarama Iyer. The duo belonged to the seventh generation to carry the family's high unbroken Veena tradition. The two brothers played together as "Karaikudi brothers" and enjoyed an unbroken career from their debut in their teens to the year 1934. Sambasiva Iyer was known for his tremendous hard work or "Asura Sadhaka". His mastery over the instrument was perfect and he constantly toiled to preserve the purity of knowledge he obtained from his ancestors.

Sambasiva Iyer did not have any issue himself. However, as he lived in patriarchal society, he found it necessary to pass on the family legacy through a male member of the family. In 1957, he adopted Karaikudi S. Subramanian, who was the son of Subbarama Iyer's 3rd daughter Lakshmi Ammal.

==Career==
He taught and lived at [[Kalakshetra]], a noted arts institution in [[Chennai]].<ref name="Meduri2005">{{cite book|author=Avanthi Meduri|title=Rukmini Devi Arundale: (1904 - 1986) ; a Visionary Architect of Indian Culture and the Performing Arts|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=uNYZ1vp-xFIC&pg=PA95|access-date=19 July 2013|date=1 January 2005|publisher=Motilal Banarsidass Publisher|isbn=978-81-208-2740-0|pages=95–}}</ref>

He was awarded the first [[Sangeet Natak Akademi Award]] for Veena in 1952, given by the [[Sangeet Natak Akademi]], India's National Academy of Music, Dance & Drama.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sangeetnatak.gov.in/sna/awardeeslist.htm |title=SNA: List of Akademi Awardees |publisher=[[Sangeet Natak Akademi]] Official website |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150530204253/http://sangeetnatak.gov.in/sna/awardeeslist.htm |archive-date=30 May 2015 }}</ref> Also in the same year, he was awarded the [[Sangita Kalanidhi]] Award, one of the highest awards in Carnatic music, given by [[Madras Music Academy]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Sangita Kalanidhi recipients |url=http://www.musicacademymadras.in/sangita_kalanidhi.php |publisher=[[Madras Music Academy]] website |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121230220008/http://www.musicacademymadras.in/sangita_kalanidhi.php |archive-date=30 December 2012 |df=dmy-all }}</ref>

He died in 1958.
