Brilliant concert. Felt like I was listening to TNS at his best. The thodi was mindblowing.

T N S Krishna , over the the last few years has matured into a brilliant artist of his own merit and right.
A chip of the old block, he has imbibed the musical approach and values from his father and has crafted his singing style with a lot of bhava and crispness to suit his capabilities thereby being able to produce very high and good quality music.
His grip on varied kalapramana, tala, raaga alaapana and neraval is amazing and this came alive in the three compositions namely Ninnuvinaagamari (Purvikalyani), Amba Neelayadakshi( Neelambari) and Dasukovalena (Thodi), all of which he sang sequentially.
His neraval at Soumitri Tyagaraju in Misra Jhampa was classical and innovative in style, diction and clarity without any loss of meaning. The sloka on Harikesa Nallur Muthiah Bhagavathar , composed by TNS, followed by a Tillana in Hamsanandi by Harikesa nallur Muthiah Bhagavathar was a befitting and delightful experience.
He showed a lot of professionalism in concert management, planning and ample respect to the stalwarts accompanying him without being too superfluous at the same time.
M.Chandrasekharan on the violin, Umayalpuram K Sivaraman on the mridangam, E M Subramainam on the ghatam , made the concert a lively and enjoyable experience.
They highly appreciated Krishna's imagination, crisp tala and kalapramana and the overall feel he brought to the stage. One could see Sri.Sivaraman's enthusiasm and joy while accompanying him for the neraval and swaras thereafter, wherein he followed with a brilliant thani in his own inimitable style.

True to your name there is lot of gamakam in your reviews too... TNS KrishnA taking up tODI as a main with heaps of praise from you and the doyen UKS sums up a lot of his musical spark.
In mylapore fine arts the concert is at 6 pm, but the previous slot ends close to 5pm, in krishna ghana sabha the next slot is at 2pm but Krishna was asked to wind up by 12:30 noon. In kutcheri season the main slot is the canteen slot I guess
, 50 years before it was food inbetween music , nowadays it is music in between food.
