It was a nice concert. The choice of pieces was very interesting and refreshing to listen. The list seemed very very carefully chosen and was rendered well.

The kriti renditions were very good. The Alapanais were good. Especially the srI rAgam was elaborated very nicely and pretty emotive. The other rAgA elaborations were nice as well and pretty expressive too. The neraval and svarams were all measured and matched for the kritis presented.

The accompanists were good and did an apt job with accompanying the main artist the right way.

Overall, a good concert
