It was a fitting concert for celebrating the new year eve. Each piece was rendered with a lot of bhavam and the choice of rAgams and kritis were very very refreshing. The choice and presentation of each rAgam was excellent and the way in which each rAgam was handled was just tooo good. The pieces were all effortlessly rendered. The kalpitam and manOdarmam were both very inspiring and creative and yet vintage stuff. The accompanist were very good and did a fantastic job in accompanying aptly.
