A very satisfying concert for 2 hours. I can't stand Kalyani and tune off usually but darn it, Vijay Siva made me like Kalyani. Both accompanists were just perfect foil for VS. IMO Surati alapana was a little bit stretched and could have been cut short a little. Small crowd but no exodus during thani.

>I can't stand Kalyani and tune off usually but darn it, Vijay Siva made me like Kalyani

VS's Kalyani should have been really good then! My own relationship to Kalyani is like that, though not as severe as yours, I need some away time once in a while or a refreshingly new structure like in 'Thalli ninnu nera nammi nanu'

>Kalyani - Nambikettavaillavo - M Chapu (Adi?) - PD (RN@ambujanabhana)

Misra Chapu indeed.

Whatever you say about our mods, no denying they have taste

[arasi]

Yes, I suppose! I don't know why you folks don't much care for kalyANi though. Vijay Siva sings it very well too.

Tiruvaip paNindu nittam is by Subramania Bharati.

Just curious. I don't see a Sivan song in the song list. Of course, one needn't sing a vinAyakA song on GaNESa chathurthi, a vishNu song on vaikuNTa EkadaSi, a Sivan song in a sabha with his name.
