Don’t know how I missed this to review. Another excellent presentation by TnsK.

Iam yet to reconcile the fact MA is giving morning slot to this great artist and killing his artistic and music exuberance.

Honestly, TNSK is far far better than Palakkad Ramprasad(s) and Ashwat (s). He deserves the 6.45 slot. His masterly handling of ragas...mmm. - reason MA only knows !!!!

I was late. Missed the first hour.To go from mylapore to Asthika samajam is not easy now a days. You can go to Tambaram faster.

He was ‘Swaraming’ in Ramapriya –‘SandEhamnunu’ - an excellent piece of Saint who is questioning Rama which is better = ‘your pAdakamalam or your pAdukai, which was taken by Bharatha “

Followed by sitA vara sangeetha- Devagandari

kalyAni – swara bEdha in brindavana Saranga – nidhi ChAla sukhama. He took neraval in “dAsarathi dhyana bhajana sudha rasamu’(S)

Tani

Ennaga manasuku rAni- Niambari

Nanmaiyum (kamban verse) followed by pAhi kayanaram- peelu (actually it should have been kApi)

Nagumomu galavani

Both are excellent concert. Somehow violin is not even equivalent to his calibre. Violin could not reproduce swara bEdham in both.

Acoustics in Asthika samajam is far from good.

He is not part of any groupie , that is one of the reasons. I also wish TNSK markets bit more . Certainly a great artist .
