Very nice - Kudos to J&J and Rajani!!

"Elevating, engaging, educative."
Sums up J&J's music.

Who else but Rajani to make it even better with her accompanying commentary...

At least a sampling, one of the rare kritis?

[rajeshnat]

Ranjani - I did not know that you could also speak and help during the presentation. Lots of rare numbers showcasing dikshitar .Kudos

[rshankar]

Rajesh - you've made a rAgam (ranjani) from the night (Rajani)! An extra "n" is all it takes.....

[Rajani]

Thank you all for the wishes. Arasi, please give us a day or two, to upload an excerpt from the concert.

Sounds like an excellent concert. Would love to hear the transition between Veena Vinodhini, Sarada, Hamsavahini and Saraswati if possible!

[Rajani]

Nick was present at the concert ( and the earlier days too). I await his comments too.

I can only say how enjoyable the whole thing was. I think I attended all but one of the concerts. The missed one was simply because Mala Chandrasekhar's concert was so wonderful, so satisfying and fulfilling, that my wife and I were unable to listen to another concert afterwards.

It was a grand event brought together by our friends Jayashree and Jayaraj, and their own performance was a fitting grand finale.

Thank you. BTW the ragas in the Tanam included Veenavaadhini (not Veenavinodini)
