Kamalambam bhajare; Kalyani Adi ( main)
Tarana: SindhuBhairavo. Traditional.
Sadinchene in Arabhi and Kamalambam bhajare in Kalyani were eloquently presented.
Performing to a full house in the presence of Svamiji Sri Kasi Viswanathan Iyer,the very mood breathed devotional fervour and soul stirring moments.
Every phrase in Kalyani was legendary.
Extraordinary clarity and subtlety marked Dr.Narmadha's Raaga elaboration.
For a while the " Teliyaleru Raama' was soaked in Dhenuka.
The interesting part was that their were many young students of music,who were keeping Talam.
Most of them were righting down the names of every song rendered in this concert.
Transporting every listener to the Blissful Heaven,Dr.Narmadha" S explanation on choosing the compositions were versatile.
Every nuance,Every moment with the Violin made me feel that we rarely see such great artists with astonishing mastery on the instrument.
The SindhuBhairavi Tarana was scintillating with so many Persian touches,rendered in silken smoothness.
Tirunageswaram Manikandan and Ghatam Krishna provided very nice support.
Here are some photos.
Endowed with a pleasant brilliant smile,Dr.Narmadha took the audience with her in every minute of her performance.
Incidentally Dr.Narmadha's next violin solo is scheduled on 12 th October in Sringeri Sarada Temple,Venkatanarayana road,T. Nagar
Yours faithfully,
