I had to leave in the middle of the swarams as I did not want to leave when the thani started so I didn't get to hear the thani which was a real shame
. However, I must say that both J. Vaidhyanthan and Sri B.S. Purushotaman provided excellent support and had great rapport on stage - a pleasure to listen to. Further, it is always a pleasure to hear Sri SIkkil Gurucharan's voice especially in the lower panchamam. I also enjoyed swarams in both Nada Sudha (here he sang swarams to not only 'swaramulu' but also to 'vara ragamu') and Ninnada which were fast paced. FInally, I am a sucker for any Bhiaravi so I must say I loved Janani. I am only a 17 yr. old learning music so if anyone else could throw light on the concert, it would be great!
Great of you write the review. Age is a mere number - what counts is enthusiasm. Hope to hear more reviews from you!
