A wonderful concert it was to begin the 40th anniversary series of the music club.

The beginning with a rare varNam in shankarAbaraNam was very appropriate and rendered well. The jaganmOhini quickie was a perfect prelude to the leisurely nAyaki that followed. The kalyANi was very well developed and portrayed very classically. rAgavardhani was sublime and quick ravicandrikA kriti, with 3 different cittai svarams led to the main piece of the evening.

kEdAragauLa was elaborated with a lot of vigour and presented very well. The AlApanai and tAnam were both beautifully done. The pallavi simple and sweet and sang wonderfully.

The viruttams and thiruppugazh were all very nice too.

The accompanists were very good and gave fitting replies.

It was a wonderful concert to begin the series at iitm
