My guru Sri G Ravikiran and my good friend Sri Pattabhirama Pandit presented a lovely duet concert at Mangalore yesterday. Involving two great schools, viz, Ariyakudi and Semmangudi schools, it was a confluence of different styles that blended perfectly well to give a very scholarly and melodious listening experience. The whole team had good cameraderie on stage and the result was a very good concert on a sunny sunday afternoon.

Interesting idea, like the ones by the two Smts. Sugunas.
Any chance of a clip, especially of the RTP?

[gardabha_gana]

Must have been nice. wondering how challenging is the duet - since they are from different schools, different sangathis etc.

We had already concerts in Chennai by TMK & VS.So concept wise it is not new nevertheless interesting

In BSU 2011 there were many such jugal bandhis like sAketharaman & Nisha,was it not KBMK & PP?
