Right now listening to a Kirvani RTP (abhaya varadE pAhi srI kAmAkshi shiVe) on webradio @ http://www.musicgoal.com. The notes say it is by R Vedavalli. Awesome accompaniments and the voice just flows, might have been in her prime. Pallavi alone has been going on 15+ mins now.

Any details of this concert? If it is not commercial and shareable, ways to get hold of this one? Absolute stunner it should have been.

Do we have the recordings of Vedavalli amma given in 1960s,1970s or even 1980s.

There are no uploads covering this period in the Sangeethapriya site also.

R. Vedavalli on houses with spacious backyards, munificent patrons of music and the taste of just-picked vegetables. The author takes a nostalgic stroll down lanes which echo memories of the city ....
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
."As a child I saw how, an hour before Gandhiji was scheduled to give a talk at the Hindi Prachar Sabha, the street and open maidan in front overflowed with ecstatic crowds. Every tree packed men on its branches. Staff in hand, Gandhiji arrived, mounted the platform briskly. I was too young to understand his speech. But I remember the exciting appearance of M.S.Subbulakshmi, who sang bhajans for the Mahatma. Her signature jasmine crescent, streaked with green marikozhundu and orange kanakambaram, curved above the high “bichoda kondai”, creating an aura above her head. She too commanded reverence!"...( with due reverence, RSR notes.. The year should have been around 1945. Smt MS was just 29 then and I have not seen any photo of the radiant lady from those years. with bichoda kondai.' This is her photo in 1947 Meera Premiere show at Delhi..https://sites.google.com/site/homage2ms ... &width=320
some mixed up memories?)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------(Born in 1935, R. Vedavalli is one of the most respected Carnatic musicians of the old school, noted for her theoretical knowledge, performance skills and impeccable diction. Her voice never wavers from classicism, absorbed from first guru Madurai Srirangam Iyengar, and Mudicondan Venkatrama Iyer, an expert in the pallavi tradition. Under T. Mukta's guidance, she specialised in padams and javalis. Vedavalli has given concerts and lecdems in many countries. She has taught at the Madras Music Academy's Teacher's College of Music, and the Government College of Music, Chennai. She has received many awards and honours, including the Music Academy's coveted Sangita Kalanidhi.)
