The concert began with a weightly rendition of the kAmbhOji varNam in two kAlams. The saurAshTRam AlApanai was very good and with a lot of nice sancarams showing rAga bhavam. The kriti was rendered well.

The kApi AlApanai was well sung to the limits of the ragam showing essential raga lakshanams. The kalpana svarams at the pallavi line in 4 kAlams with korappu to 'ga' was nice. The navarasa kannaDa kriti which followed was good with sparkling cittai svarams.

The pUrvikalyANi AlApanai was nice and kriti was rendered with aesthetic sangatis. The neraval and svarams at 'madurA puri nilayE maNi valayE' were very good and quite a few unfamiliar passages were rendered which were good.

The mOhanam AlApanai started in a very classical fashion. Though short, it was quite heavy and delivered the essence of the rAgam. The tanam was sung well. The pallavi was rendered well with the mandatory anulOma pratilOma and change in naDais and a short tani. One couldnt stop believing that the pallavi was drastically short.

The khamAs jAvaLi, the suruTTi utsava sampradAya kriti and the tillAna were good also.

The violinst was good and did her job well in solo parts and also while accompanying.

The mrudangist was very sensible in his accompanying style. His tani was good. The Ghatam artists was good also.
