I wished she could have been a little less strict and could have sung some other genres of songs, like some on Lord Krishna or Lord Subramanya or Lord Ganesha.

Srinivargvn
While some use R instead of A as it is alApana, kind of both is accepted , I prefer you using S for kalpanaswaras.Also in general it is better to transpose ANKS next to the song say like
3) shrI chAmundEshwarI (ANK) or better to put it as (R N S)- bilahari - Adi
6) dAkshAyani abhayAmbikE(ANKT) or better to put it as (R N S T) - tOdi - rUpakam

This way in one single read we all will get it, this is a tiny bit of advice.
With respect to krishna or subrahmanya I am sure you know it is navarathri season , hence all on Godess ambAl. For the next 2 weeks everywhere it is only going to be that theme.

Thanks for the detailed review,Srinivasrgvn. Glad to see that this youngster is gaining musical stature with each new concert. I met her while she came for the Cleveland festival. She gave an excellent concert and I still recall the 'Shanmughapriya' and 'madyamavati' she sang.

srinivasrgvn, could you tell us who the accompanists were? You have spoken so highly of them but haven't mention their names in your review.
