suruTTi short sketch

It was a very good concert. The elaborations of both tODi and bhairavi were very good and done in a very matured fashion. The kriti choice and handling were both very elegant and very bhava laden. The accompanists did a fantastic job in raising the concert to a much more enjoyable level. It was very good concert over all.

rbharath, what instruments were they playing? Was this a vocal-vina-mridangam concert?

Ramakrishnan Murthy is a U.S based singer i think if am not wrong , pursuing his engineering at california ( Again if am not wrong) . I heard him sing at rAga sudhA hall last month for a mrudanga arangEtram.. He has learned from Sri.Vairamangalam LakshminArayanan for a couple of years ..

Liked his srI subramanyAya namasthE very much that day..
