It was nice concert from the starting. The AbhOgi short sketch was good and so were the svarams. It was real nice to hear neraval at 'munnavanE nI mun ninRRAl muDiyAdadonRillai' and the svarams were good also.
The first elaborate AlApanai was Anandabhairavi. It was done very well and the kriti was well rendered also. The AlApanai of santAna manjari (67th asampUrNa mELam) was the highlight of the concert. The 10 min AlApanai was very moving and just too good. The kriti was well rendered also.
The slOkam and suruTTi and the vAra kriti were good. The svarams in pUrvikalyANi in line with the poruththam in the cittai svaram of the kriti were nice also.
The kAmbhOji AlApanai was intellectual. The kriti was well rendered and the swarams were nice also. The rAgamAlikA viruttam and tiruppugazh were good.
The Violinst was good in parts. His AlApanais needed a bit more vigour. He was good in accompanying the artists and also in the svarams.
The percussion department was very well handled by the mrudangist and kanjirA vidwan. They played for the kriti and svarams all thro'. The tani was nice also.
