The concert started with a short sketch of nIlAmbari and the varNam was nicely rendered. The kalAnidi kriti with svarams at pallavi was good. The suruTTi kriti was presented neatly with neraval and svarams at 'dInarakshakam pUjita vaidhyanAta kshEtram'.

The first AlApanai of the evening was gauri manOhari. The AlApanai was done exceptionally well and the kriti was good as well. The yadukula kAmbhOji sketch and the kriti were moving and filled with bhavam. One was truly touched by the rendition.

tODi was treated elaborately to the right measure. The kriti was good and had good old tamil flowing. The svarams were beautiful and also had some intricate kaNakku. Some parts of tODi reminded one of the yesteryear nadasvara masteros.

The sahAnA short sketch and the kriti were good and the rare kalAvati kriti was good also. The mOhanam AlApanai was well structured and the rAgamAlikA parts of tAnam were very well done. The pallavi was nice. The usual anulOma-pratilOma and tisram were done. He sangs vilamba kAla svarams in tisra tripuTa and mEl kAlam in misra cApu. (reducing the tALam from tisra tripuTa to misra cApu)

It was quite refreshing to hear two extra caraNams of the swati tirunal kriti in pahADi and kOsalam other than the sindhu bhairavi one, which one usually gets to hear. The mAND kriti was nice and the navarOs peace was nicely rendered as well. The jonpuri thiruppugazh and pavamana led to curtains.

Sri Sanjay gave a really good concert. His voice was not at its best, but one could still feel the life in his music through the concert. One is not able to recollect any 'thoivu' in the concert.

Sri Gopinath was good in accompanying almost all thro' the concert. There were few parts were he could have done better.

Sri Arun Prakash did a amazing job in perfectly accompanying the main artist. His charecterestic playing for the kriti and actually playing according to the sangati was good. His tanis were good also.
