Re: Margazhi Musings 2017
The concert that followed looked terrific on paper. VVS and VVS.Murari on violin & Jayathi Kumaresh on Veena and Srimushanam on mrdangam.
Unfortunately it could not live up to the expectations. Murari was playing a viola (probably to distinguish it from the violin) and it did not go well. Jayanthi excels in those riveting swara prastharas but was not afforded the opportunity. Srimushanam did his best in accompaniment but the energy level on stage was not enough to inspire him. Overall the kichdi was not cooked well, and became less than each of the individual parts (not even the sum).
Started with Mahaganapathim in nattai followed Sujana jeevana in kamas.
Hemavathi was main with Sree kanthimathim.

2. Ekadantam bhajeham in bilahari

Did a wonderful Manoranjani alap at BVB couple weeks ago. Keeping the streak alive.
Palintuvo Palimpavo of T
minor hiccup with the lyrics in the anupallavi
swaras @ pallavi
Nice return from CR. Both percussions accompanying.
mrdangam on the loud side & too sharp.
4. Sankari Neeve, begada, Subbaraya sastry as
slow filler. Mrdangam much more tolerable here
5. Todi alap by Gayathri
Sruti bedham to mohanam after dramatic water sip

Suresh,Yes. Not the first time that a star male vocalist haa ended the concert without the lighter items.
In fact this format has come about because of some organisers arranging 2 big names back to back, asking them to do just one RTP, etc.
I would prefer at least 2 lighter items with some variety and then a Mangalam.

Concert has to have a warm up & a warm down. Otherwise it feels like a "mottai" - or a TMK concert.
Back to this concert:

The key to any activity is prior preparation, even if it is only listening to concerts.
Having crossed international borders in the days when vaccination/inoculation certificates were a necessity, Harimau always takes the appropriate prophylactic measures.
In addition, his amazing prescience helps him in these matters.
For the last four weeks, Harimau has been listening to a Marathi Gavlan:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2SdDjik3v6E
Thus Harimau was ready for anything the Duelling Abhangists throw at the audience. He serenely watched the gavlan unfold from his usual 7th row seat. Fortunately, it was not in Bhatiyar, Mamiyar or any such raga but in Brindavana Saranga.

Aah.. the old sociological study continues! Happy to see that all the multivarious harimau personalities have fused and require just 1 seat now And, I can vouchsafe for Bhatiyar. Nothing to fear. It is just our Poorvikanlyani sporting a Salwar kameez! They must have seen your grimace and hence announced the raga as "Brindavana Saranga" rather than brindavani.He serenely watched the gavlan unfold from his usual 7th row seat. Fortunately, it was not in Bhatiyar, Mamiyar if any such raga but in Brindavana Saranga.
For the uninitiated, "Gavlan" is the milkmaid's song, as she goes about her daily chores with Hari in her mind.

Got a chance to watch Alex in Wonderland yesterday.
http://www.alexinwonderland.in
Very funny and thought provoking at the same time. Was turned on to him after watching a routine with some carnatic music comedy bit forwarded on WhatsApp. This particular routine did not have much on Carnatic Music but still worth a watch.
Check him out if he visits your area!

This viruththam (not shlOkam) on AndAL is worth its weight in gold. What smooth transitions from rAgam to rAgam. And appropriately she took a thaniyan on AndAL on the mArgAzhi 1st day seguing well into the first thiruppAvai. The stress she is placing on iLam of the iLamchingam is also diff/unique as if she wants to stress the iLam part more than iLamchingam.Gadolinium wrote: ↑17 Dec 2017, 00:19

SV wrapping up with a pAsuram on thiruvEngadam and final madyamAvathi leads to adaikkalam adaikkalam. That pallavi line will be a good pallavi for RTP in madyamAvathi.

Sumithra (there just might be only one with an "aich"?) was her usual wonderful. There was a great chemistry between all the artists, and it was one of those concerts where all the artists seemed to bring out the best in each other.

Margazhi Moan
Sabhas, will you please cease this increasing use of colour in The Hindu advertisements. No, black or red type on a strong yellow background is not as legible as black on white, and no, the existence of "WYSISYG" word processors has not made you better at design than the ages-old wisdom of real typography, about which The Hindu sales people almost certainly know nothing either.
I'm, ahem, a mere 65 years old. I now need to keep a magnifying glass to augment my reading glasses to decipher your awful advertisements. Goodness knows how much money you are wasting: I'm aware that just a simple, short text ad in those columns costs Rs.1,000.
Use display, with centring and spacing; use colour if you must; but please, first ask someone who knows what they are doing. No: being able to use Word for Windows does not mean that you know. As is painfully obvious.
--- a music lover with less than perfect eyesight, and,
in a past lifetime (about 30 years ago) a typesetter.

Multiple persons, not just personalities. This morning, one of the trio was at the Academy while another was at TAG center, listening to padams and javalis of the devadasi tradition. The two met at Narada Gana Sabha for lunch and then attended the 12:45 pm concert together.

And this year's announcement is:
There is no need to turn off your phones.
Please feel free to make and receive phone calls whenever you wish,
Whether you are old enough to know better or too young to care,
Just do it.
But please, don't do that silly thing of putting your head down, like a
mouse with its head in a hole. We can still see you, we can still see you.
You are just as much of a nuisance as you would be sitting proud and upright.
Remember: the music is loud, so you may have to talk a little louder than
you would at home. Don't worry about it. Just go ahead.
Thank you for your cooperation.

Thought violinist was Akkarai. Looks a lot like her. It is Apoorva Krishna.

One ceiling fan, just this one out of 40 odd hanging over MA’s balcony, keeps rotating at very slow speed all the time. Seems to happen regardless of if it’s a morning, afternoon or late evening concert. Wonder if it has an ear for good music, the real “CM fan” if there ever was one?
