A good concert by Savita. Her Nattakurinji with Amritha was great for its melody and flow. [one line review for want of time]

First time i heard Begada this season. Refreshing followed by a beautiful kriti. Struggled while singing in top octave. She was short of breath. Considering the selections she could have lifted the concert to great heights. Amrita played beautifully.

One of the best concerts in the 1.45 slot. Her tOdi was extremely commendable. nAttaikurinji was super! The tukkadas were presnted neatly.

But, I could enter only at the end of bEgadA. So, I missed it!

My family and I attended this with great expectations. It was so-so. I didn't particularly care for her floating voice and also noticed some slips. My grandfather mentioned some other technical flaws also. The main piece was too rushed.
