[kgopin]

U.Shrinivas - Mandolin
Peri Sriramamoorthy - Violin
Haridwaramangalam Pazhanivel - Spl Thavil
S.V.Ramani - Ghatam

1. Varnam - Nalinakanthi
2. Sidhi Vinayakam - Shanmugapriya
3. Bhajare Manasa - Abheri
4. ?? - Sruti Ranajani - AS (i was thinking he was playing Bhavapriya Srikanthane, but later he announced this raga)
5. China Nadane - Kalanidhi
6. RTP - Shankarabharanam (ragamalika varali, sama and sriranjani)
7. Thani Avarthanam - lasted for 45 min

I had to leave the concert after thani. If anyone had attended, please post rest of the items.

Overall it was very good concert and Shrinivas could have already planned that thani would take more time in this concert. Hence he gave the main item directly as RTP.

#4 must've been Thyagaraja's yE dari sancharinTurA... Just guessing... There's practically nothing else that's 'famous' in it...

RTP in sankarabarnam must be great. My current fav raga is Sankarabaranam.
Anybody planning to review the MA concert of U srinivas.
