Thanks R Shankar. I have got hold of one of the AIR concerts with great difficulty. I will be uploading this in my folder in Sangeethapriya.org. I am sure that all of you will enjoy this concert.

I have a photo I took of Jon and his wife in Madras about 1971. Also photos of S. Nagarajan and Nageswara Rao, both of whom visited Wesleyan in the 1960s. Should I upload these? Jim

Jim,
When I bought a house in New City, N.Y.(Vicky lives in Nyack next town where Helen Hayes lived!) Nageswara Rao who was staying with us in Manhattan also was one of three who moved into the house!...If you have the pics in JPEG can I request you to send one to vkv43034@yahoo.com It will mean a lot to both my wife& myself.

I took this of Jon and Rhea somewhere in Tamil Nadu, perhaps it was Chennai, in 1971. Jim

Beautiful photo , both of them look more like Indians (especially John Higgins looks like the thamizh actor Arvind Swamy )than Americans

Does anyone know where Smt Higgins (Rhea) is these days?

It would great to get a record of her reminiscences of the great Bhagavathar. Could add a dimension to what we know about him.

There's a LP record of Higgins (released during the early eighties) which is a demo of how a typical concert should be. It was hugely popular those times ; I wonder why it is not frequently heard / discussed now.

It starts with the Viriboni varnam, covers Darini Telusu (Sudhasaveri) etc. and ends with a Tillana. It includes a padam too. Krishna nee Begane (though in an anglicised accent) explains the utmost care Higgins has taken for the Saahitya aspect.

I have felt that the same menu can be practised by upcoming artists to have a grip of the concert idiom.

Namaskaram,

Could someone please advice on how to get a copy of “ the music of Bharathanatyam “?. A pdf version or an ebook which can be purchased online would also suffice.

Thanks in advance
