Very impressive concert.
Time allotment and structure of the concert was very impressive. Although there were good manodharma features in the first five songs, they were of moderate length and the elaboration was reserved for todi. Also, he had adequate time for doing the RTP good justice instead of rushing through it. Selection of songs and raga were of the right mix. I have nowadays come to realise that the success of a concert and also of an artist largely depends on the selection and structuring of the different songs in a concert. Kalyanapuram aravind was very good in this respect. Shades of Sri.TNS are unmistakable. Can probably avoid going deep into kanakku at this stage of his career. He is however undoubtedly a good talent and there are good chances of his shaping up as a popular artist in the younger generation. I wish him the very best of luck for a successful musical career. Achutha Rao picked up steam from RTP.Prashant is attentive and gives good support. Bhagyalakshmi, I surely admire.
