Here is a good review. I thought it was unnecessary to repeat the exercise nor was it necessary to spice it up. Please do read it. The concert was excellent, well attended and well appreciated.

It was announced that Nadasurabhi will feature a Madurai Mani Iyer Centenary Celebrations concert on 15th July and none other than Sri.TVS will perform. Good news indeed.

I really wanted to attend this concert, especially since it's been a very long time since I've listened to Charulatha Ma'am, but couldn't make it! Sounds like a great concert though!

In the picture, it is NOT Sri S N Narayana Murthy on Ghata.

It is Sri M A Krishnamurthy - it appears there was a replacement.

Yes. I forgot to make the correction after the concert. Sri.MAK, it appears had an accident and fracture some time back and still he is having the crepe bandage around his foot. Also looks quite run down. Very kind of him to have come and played on that day.
