Vocalist Ragavan Manian gave a concert at Kannadotsava-2008.
Vocal: Sri Ragavan Manian
Veena: Sri Raja Sivamanu
Violin: Sri Keshav

In this concert with all-kannaDa compositions ( It was part of Kannadotsava-2008 celebrations by Kannada Koota of Northern California) he chose to sing a translation of Tyagaraja's kriti (translated by yours truly
) among others.How many times can someone like me gets a chance to brag about a professional musician singing his lyrics
(What if it is translated) ? So I went ahead and wrote this blogpost, along with some video clips!http://neelanjana.wordpress.com/2008/09 ... l-concert/
