Observations
------------------
1. Good news and Bad news. Good news is that the Brother who seldom sings is singing well again. Bad news is the other brother not singing so well.

2. Swathi Tirunal special. May be the percussion artistes influence

3. Concert wound up half hour earlier because of the brother not being well

4. Excess of 1 avartana swaras on 2 and 5. Went on and on.

gOpa nandana is in bhUshAvati, sIsa gang (http://www.karnatik.com/c6966.shtml) is apparently in dhanaSri

[sureshvv]

Thank you Sir! Corrected.

[mahavishnu]

It is actually bhUshAvaLi (sans N2 in the ascent).
bhUshAvati is the name for vAcaspati in the other system.

Mahavishnu,
Are you by any chance in Chennai? Good to hear from you

[mahavishnu]

I wish
Will email you soon, Arasi.

It has been a long time, one of the brothers has not been singing at all. He just sits and says balE, bEsh. For me, nothing new.
They have lost the "value" long back.

[arasi]

Still, two for the price of one...?

[Jigyaasa]

It is actually bhUshAvaLi (sans N2 in the ascent).
bhUshAvati is the name for vAcaspati in the other system.

Thanks, mahavishnu. Freudian slip, I suppose - I do like bhUSavati more than bhUSavaLi

[arasi]

They were on Nada Nirajanam this evening. Did anyone watch?
