His passion for nattuvangam is such that he working on codifying the art so as to convert it to text. "It must spread," he says, "It must be made available readily to any nattuvangam aspirant in a form that
can afford easy assimilation." Says a prominent and accomplished dancer, "His nattuvangam carries an intonation, diction, and force that is instantly inspiring " To the vocalist, it is solid support not
just for the rhythm but for the overall musical value and the ambiance created. To the mridangist, it is at once a challenge and enjoyment, more so because the nattuvangam is not just the "konnakkol"- or the
syllablised mridangam beats- but a continuum of rhythmic flow with subtle nuance s of nadais, korvais and more. To the student, the Guru in Prasanna comes across as a lucid and clear speaker with a teaching style that is instantly endearing. Audiences have repeatedly marveled as to how such an outstanding performer is able to be a prominent part of the artistic impact without being a dominant part. Such is the manner with which Prasanna blends his art into that of his co-artists-musicians and dancers alike. Some discerning and informed opinions "Captivating Jathis composed by Prasanna Kumar captivated the audience " (India Herald-Texas) "Prasanna Kumar's presentation on "Importance of Laya in dance compositions" was very  educative" (Deccan Herald-19th Oct'2009) "Prasanna Kumar's Nattuvangam was pleasing and achieved a
harmonious blend with the dance " (The Hindu- 20th March'2009) "Prasanna Kumar created certain unique
sound effects with his instruments that provided dramatic audio support to the dancer's vivid expressions. The modern electronic equipment in the multitasking hands of Prasanna Kumar transformed the ambiance of the theater" (India Herald-Texas, 25th July'2008) "Intricate Jathis (composed by
Nattuvanaar D.V.Prasanna Kumar of Bangalore) was declared with confidence and ease, the kavuthuvam like jathi with interspersed lyrics being particularly noteworthy" (The Hindu Music Season Narada Gana Sabha Dec'2009 -Usha Ramdas) "D.V.Prasanna Kumar made learning fun, as the participants of the
workshop in Ananya put it, Prasanna simplified the concept and presented it in a way where everyone understood easily" (May 2009 Abhivyakthi) "Sri Prasanna has the natural art of teaching which most of the Nattuvangam don't possess" (Journal Temple of Fine Arts- Kuala Lumpur)
