varshaji, it has been a week :D Waiting eagerly for your next upload. Thanks for the concert. I liked the todi very much.

Yesterday was Smt.Pantula Rama's bday. Can you please give us a special treat here in rasikas? :)

Sorry for the delay .
As for Pantula Rama , never had the chance to organise her concert.
Here is one from a balmy day in HSR Layout Blore . Charulatha Ramanjuam discovered before starting her violin concert that the strings were broken , Unfazed she broke into song .
A lovely afternoon it was . The singer and the Lord . With only a few witnesses around

Beautiful! I think the last two tracks do not belong to this concert. Did she sing anything after the kRti in behAg?

here is the full version of the proceedings.It was stupid of me to slice an unsliceable experience , in the first place.
the only things edited out are the zealous singing of the hosts daughter :)
Even the hosts pet dog started liking the music as the day wore on .
Yes the violin was set right during the afternoon and it made an appearance too.
A great day followed by lunch and screening of some Laughton classics , I think .
Too bad the world moves so fast these days :(
In hindsight , this experience reinforced my belief that in our music , there are only two actors . the singer and the thing the singer sees .
I was happy to be a fly on the wall that day.
Charulatha . Such a fine artist and a person .And what a pair she makes , with Ramanujam.God Bless.

Varshaji - nothing you do is stupid! Thank you for the entire track - it is divine!

And thank you for recording it for posterity and sharing it with us! I agree that these sort of afternoons/evenings are what bring out the true essence of a musical experience. It was from one such recording of a lovely afternoon with Sri Madhava Rao that we were able to extract a beautiful experience for my daughter a few years ago.

I think of Charulatha as a fine violinist and a sweet and unassuming person--have heard folks say she's a very good singer too, but this is the first time I hear her! Such a treat. Thanks, Varsha :)
