The concert began with a nice short sketch of sAvEri and the varNam. The janaranjani short sketech and the kriti were good also. The kuntaLavarALi kriti was rendered in the speed it is required to be presented, the artist pulled off a perfect rendition.
The first elaboration of the evening was a good vasantA. The kriti was rendered well with svarams. Her rendition of pariyAcakamA in vanaspati was evocative. Then followed a confident and fluent elaboration of dharmavati and the well-known bhajana seyarAdA of Mysore vAsudevAchAr. She played niraval at the closing lines, niravati sukhadAyakuni, handling this as well as the swaras that followed with aplomb. Abrief sketch of kedAragowla preceded saraguNapAlimpa. Quite unexpectedly, Dikhitar's mAyE in tarangiNi came up as the quick piece preceding the main raga tODi in which the AlApanA and the tAnam wre played beautifully. The kriti sarasijanAbha in misra chApu had the niraval and swaras as expected, followed by an interesting tani by young Arjun Ganesh who followed the vaiNika closely and embellished the concert significantly; Harihara Sarma on the kanjira played a rather subdued role; may be he needed a little more amplification. After the tani, she played a short sketch of bahudAri and rendered the ever-appealing kriti, smara vAram. The khamAs jAvali and tillAnA were nicely rendered as well. The kuranji mangalam was refreshing and nice to hear.
Over all the artist gave a good concert and was ably supported by her accopanists who were good while accompanying for the sangatis and during the tani.
It was a concert of yet another not-so-known vidwan which was pretty different and definitely quite better off than most mylapore-kutcheri-packages.
