Amazing concert! First 3 pieces I didn't really enjoy, I wish they had started with a varnam, but the concert really took a turn from Thodi.

Thodi nereval was amazing

55 min Behag RTP, Behag alapana and ragamalika swarams were amazing

Lovely list!

narayara000,
Nice to hear that you have mentioned as 55 mins RTP that way you have negated the assumption that we would have that it was a touch and go pallavi .
I am assuming the concert end time was fixed like 8:30 or 9:30 , wish atleast 10 mins was given that way RagA would have given a varnam too...

Is the sveta temple the same place as venkateshwara temple - many years back sujiram used to report , i am assuming she will read and make a post after a long time...

I was there at the concert. Lovely tODi and behAg. They used swarAkshara to finish off the swarams in each raga in RTP matching the pallavi words ha ri sma ra ne ma dO wherever appropriate, Enjoyed their viruttham as always..

During the neraval in tODi there was a cloudburst, and we could hear it inside the temple so apt for the line....
