It was a great concert. The pieces were all rendered with a lot of bhavam and with perfect diction. The choice of songs and rAgam was very nice and quite out of the box. The choice of gamanAshrama and paras for elaboration was very good and they were both done extensively. It was great to hear these two rare ragams. The main course, shankarAbaraNam was wonderful. It was just majestic and was only getting better with the kriti and neraval and svarams. The neraval svarams were all very good. The accomanpanists were very good and played their parts very well. It was a superb concert.
