I attended and it was a beautiful concert with a chamber music kind of feel.
The duo stated upfront that they wanted to make it informal and welcome requests.
In fact the first piece was a request of yours truly
.
Carnatica Brothers, accompanied by Suhas Rao (violin) and Mali (mridangam)
Song list:
Kanakangi - Thodi Varnam - Pallavi Gopala Iyer
Sarasiruhasana Priye - Nattai - Puliyur Doraisamy Iyengar (S)
Shri Shukra Bhagavantam - Paras - Muthuswami Dikshitar
E Vasudha - Sahana - Thyagaraja (AS)
Ranganayakam - Nayaki - Muthuswami Dikshitar
Amba Paradevathe - Rudrapriya - Krishnaswamy Ayya
Idi Neeku Mariyadaga - Begada (Javali) - Pattabhiramiah? (ANST)
Garuda Gamana - Hindolam - Annamacharya
Baro Krishnayya - Ragamalika incl. Mand - Kanakadasa
Kanda Naal Mudalai - Madhuvanti - S Chidambaram
Uyyalavai (misremember lyrics) ? - Yamuna Kalyani
Chindu/Tukkada in Tamil (forgot lyrics) - Ananda Bhairavi ish
Geetarthamu - Surati - Thyagaraja
Mangalam - Madhyamavati - Purandaradasa
Picks of the concert were Paras, a stunning rendition of Ranganayakam and
the Surati. The Rudrapriya and Sahana were also well sung and the Begada
javali, a treasure of the Dhanammal school, was a pleasant surprise for main
piece. Suhas on the violin played commendably for his age (he is very young!)
and his Begada alapana was particularly good. Mali's thani was short but very sweet.
The tukkadas were all delightfully sung and the enchanting Surati masterpiece of
Thyagaraja followed by the rarely heard Purandaradasa mangalam were an apt
finish to a superb concert.

I suppose it is the mangalam which describes the dashAvatAram-
starting from the head to the feet-keshadi pAdam-it describes one avatAram for every angam-mukutakaEmangalm-matsyAvatArake etc; and the letters are also appropriate
mukhakE -muttu kUrmanigE
sukaNtaakE-sUkaa rUpagE etc. Beautiful mangalam.
