madhyamAvati short sketch

It was a great concert. The AlApanais of mOhanam, bhairavi and chArukEsi were very elaborate while all the others were short and sketchy and crisp. The compositions were rendered very well. The beginning of the concert with a crisp nATTai, set stage for a grand evening. The mOhanam AlApanai was very good and classical. The kriti was rendered well. The AlApanai of bhairavi was very indicative of a very grand piece. The varNam being nothing short of that. The AlApanai of the asampUrNa mELA bhavAni was pretty interesting and nice on the ear. The kriti was rendered very well. The main charukEsi was very good and displayed all the colours of the rAgam. The kriti was rendered well too.

The accompanists were good and did a very nice job in accompanying appropriately for the concert. The tani was good too.
