In a two hour concert, SK did full justice by giving a crisp kalyAni and detailed mukhAri. Mysore's return
in mukhAri is very good even clapped by SK.
Sri.KR's tani with BSP mertis mention. The verteran with Purushottaman gave 20 minutes quality-packed tani.
Other Info -
kARthik Fine arts - Bhavan's Mini Hall - Musicians living abroad (MLA) concert- I went through the schedule.
There was a concert where the Ghatam is by Sri. kuno Takaski from Japan. Anyone who knows this person's
background/guru can enlighten me. More importantly, I liked the "Sri" before his name in the pamphlet.
I got a copy of CM Reckoner- I observed- during dec, Sri.OST has got 19 concerts followed by Gurucharan's 17. TMK and Sanjay
each of 14. Pray that they maintain the same voice and fulfill the expectation of raskas. -

Best wishes to the artists. Unfair on their families, health burden, vocal chords, stress. Anyway. Amazing that our carnatic artists...each one, everyone - be it Sanjay, TMK, Sikkil, Abhi, RG, OST or even the seniors - UKS sir, Sankaran sir and the juniors - Ravikiran, Sandeep Narayan, Amrita Murali, Bharat Sundar - Manjanna, Varadu, Balaji etc are striving to offer their best for everyone - considering so many visitors throng to Chennai. Long may they all thrive.grsastrigal wrote: I got a copy of CM Reckoner- I observed- during dec, Sri.OST has got 19 concerts followed by Gurucharan's 17. TMK and Sanjay

How many concerts does Pattabhirama Pandit have? Last year he had just one. And, not to forget, Tiruvarur Girish. Go out and support these hardworking artists. Cheers.

Re: Gurucharan at Asthka Samajam on 10th Dec
jaysriks- Thanks for correcting me. It is Ravichandrika.
Pattabhiram Pandit- He is the one artist, Iam always concerned. Thanks mahesh is also with me. It really bleeds when I saw him only on KVN's birth anniversary
to perform. When I saw him performing in MA this year, I was very happy. He deserves a place in MA slot. He has got 3 concerts including MA. Two being
prime slot 6.30. That is the only solace.
I do not get Tiruvarur Girish. There is one Girish S
Noted - Even Sattur Sisters have only two.
