I was listening to the second one as i peeped into this entry. It is splendid. Maitreem bhajatha - her singing is next only to MS's.

KVC,Like minds. She is a superb presenter.
However I feel the overenthusiastic percussion (+amplification) has drowned out some superb singing, in many places.
Sriranjani has to watch out for this, her voice is rather soft.

I thought of you the moment I saw the 'bearded' man and heard his loud beats.

Those who sing music for music sake find God in that.

Good catch, Shankarank! The umpteenth Todi this season, but true Chemai tribute in Chembai style.

Youtube notification from TVG channel:

Umpteenth + 1 Todi - Third Item - Enjoy.

Bit of a disappointment that she sang himadri sutE in rUpakam 4 offset on the second tap, instead of 4 offset triSra naDai Adi - which she did use in BSU 2014 : https://youtu.be/k-xCD8uTamM?t=227 for a similar SyAma SAStri piece in rItigauLa

SyAmakrishna in that also starts 2 offset - but she handled it nicely.

What a wonderful presentation of Kedara as well as a great MD composition! Hats off to TNSK.
The mood reminded me a lot of MDR.

During the season, Shri. Sriram Parasuram gave a fantastic lecdem on the Raga Kalyani. Towards the end he briefly mentioned about Hamsa Kalyani and a composition in this Raga by Thanjavur Shankara Iyer. I was aware of this raga and was under the impression that this was an invention of Shri. Ashok Madhav and have heard his composition a few years ago - rendered by Sikkil Gurucharan.

Ever since Sriram Parasuram mentioned this, I was longing to hear the song. I didn't have to wait for long. Shri. Injikudi Subramaniam has rendered it in his recent concert at Nada Inbam. We are fortunate to record it and archive it.

"Amba Shri Parameshwari" - Hamsa Kalyani (which has Hamsadhwani notes in the Arohanam and Kalyani notes in the Avarohanam - similar to Mohana Kalyani)
