I forgot who the mridangam artist was. I think it was Manoj Siva.

Wonderful concert once again. HarikAmboji alApanai by Smt. Ranjani was excellent, and so were her swara patterns. Mukhari was very very well done, especially the alApanai. RTP in Sarasangi was a treat to the listeners. Smt. Gayatri's alapanai of Sarasangi just took us to a whole new level. RagamAlika SwarAs in NalinakAnthi and Desh almost brought tears in everyone's eyes. Overall, another fantastic concert by the duo.

-Abhishek.

>>Yentanile (MukhAri - Rupakam) [R S T] <<

Was this the Tyagaraja kriti "entanine varnintunu shabari bhagyam" (how do I describe how fortunate shabari was)?

RTP in Sarasangi? Beautiful! Wish I was in the concert! This time RTPs of Ranjani and Gayatri are really interesting! Tri raga pallavi at Academy, Pallavi in Saramathi and pallavi in khamas!
