It took some time for Smt. Ramamani to get set but once she did, beautiful AlApanAs of bhairavi and kAmbOji followed. varALi AlApana was done for a very short time. With the passage of time, the rAga AlApanAs went on getting better and better with kAmbOji being the best.
But the star of the evening was certainly Akkarai Subhalakshmi on the violin. Her bhairavi, varALi and kAmbOji were simply out of the world. Veteran musicians in the audience like Sri T.R. Subramaniam were seen enjoying every bit of what she played.

Recently, on sruti worldspace, they played a Keeravani RTP. I was under the impression that it might be a veteran artist paying so brilliantly...and then to my surprise, the announcer mentioned Kum. Akkarai Subhalakshmi. She is clearly a promising talent that we are going to hear much more about....
