It was a very nice concert. Kum Amritha sang a concert in strict adherence to classism and it was treat to those who attended.

The aTANA was very nice. The AlApanai and the svarams were good. The sahAnA AlApanai was very moving and was very indicative of a grand kriti to follow. The navAvarNam was just the piece that could fit there. It was rendered with a lot of bhavam.

The main bhairavi AlApanai was very good. It was rather surprising to me to hear 'jananI mAmava'. the neraval and svarams at 'anupamIta kamalA vAsE dEvi' were done well. The pallavi, though set to a popular tALAm, was rendered very nicely.
