mottai mAdi katchEri or MMK (Open terrace concert) is a series of listening sessions that have been taking place in Chennai for the past 18 months or so. Conceptualised by SL Narasimhan (Yessel), these listening sessions happen at the terrace of a house (if weather permits) or inside a house.
The next MMK is on Friday 22/Jun/2012 . Here is the announcement in Yessel's words:
We have lot of artistes who have enthralled us with sheer brilliance of their free flowing execution without much of grammar, a very few with more of grammar and less of flamboyance, much lesser number of artistes with only grammar and no leeway for glamour.
But we had one great scientist among artistes. A rare blend of the science and the aesthetics of the artform. He presented to us his genius as the most delectable buffet. Yes, I am referring to the one of the most tasteful musicians I've heard live. Thanjavur S Kalyanaraman, SKR for us.
This edition of MMK will feature the brilliance of SKR. The session will happen on 22.06.12 at Brhaddhvani. The concert will have the best of SKR's music for about 2 hours. Set the reminder in your calendar, book your space in advance.
