madyamAvati short sketch

It was nice concert. All the AlApanais were done in a very scholarly fashion. All the kritis were beautifully rendered. The svarams were all amazing too.

However, as the time allotted for the concert was just about an hour, there was an inherent hurry in the concert. Sri Sivalingam kept looking at the organizers after each piece once the main kharaharapriyA. One could have enjoyed a lot more had they given more time to this concert, probably started it about 30-45 minutes before. It is a pity that nAdasvaram concerts have been reduced to such a state.
