Wonderful concert by Vani Sateesh and team, with particularly beautiful pieces in Latangi and Kambodhi. This concert saw some firsts at Ranjani Fine Arts like Latangi and the choice of a Muthaiah Bhagavathar kriti for the main piece. And also a song-list without any Trinity compositions, but this did not make it any less enjoyable!

ratna kancuka dhAriNi is a staple of Sri TNS and his disciples, and it truly a ratnam (gem) from Sri HKMB...Madurai Sri Sundar sings this beautifully.

I have been really fortunate to hear this from the veteran himself.
