Nadaloka, Prabatha Sangeetham, Bangalore - Kum.Rakshitha Ramesh

[ragtal]

A very beautiful morning with the sweet and mature music of Rakshitha Ramesh for Nadaloka in Bangalore. An appreciative small audience and a quiet chill but pleasant morning provided the required ambience. She was able to hold the audience attention for 1 hour without any accompaniments.

Starting with the Bowli Varnam of shri.Lalgudi Jeyaraman, she set the tone for the program with a beautiful shamugapriya ragam and Dikshithat piece, "Siddhi Vinayagam". The piece was rendered well with swarams at "prasiddha gananayakam" and "Siddhi Vinayakam". This was followed by "Meevallagunadoshanemi" in Kaapi. She proceeded with a detailed shankarabharanam raga and thanam and the Shyama Saastri masterpiece "Sarojadhala netri". After adequate neraval and swaras, she finished with a simple korvai with chatusram and tisram. The program ended with a Mand Thillana of Lalgudi and the mangalam.

Nice fingering technique and gayaki style of playing. Credits to the musician and her teacher Vidushi Yoga Vandana of Bangalore.

All the best for her musical future
Regards,
Vasudevan
