Violin-Sriram Parasuram
Mri- ?!
Ghatam-S.Karthick

0.shlOka-apArakaruNAmUrtim... (bEgaDa)
1.inta chalamu (bEgaDa varNam) (S at pagavAri)
2.jAnakiramaNa (S at ratnanalinadala)
3.padmanAbha pAhi (hindOlam, Adi, Swati Tirunal) (A, N, S at chArumukhajita chandranEtra)
4.palukavEmi (pUrNachandrikA, Adi)
5.mAnamulEda (hamIrkalyANI, Adi, Thyagaraja) (A, S at pallavi)
6. kaligiyuNTE (A, N, S, T at bAguga shrIraghurAmuni... tyAgarAjunikipuDu)
...

The hindOlam AlApana was stunning. hamIrkalyANI had a lot of prayOgas that I've never heard before. Personally, they seemed to dilute the effulgent image of this rAga that I have in mind from listening to some other artistes of yesteryears.
The main item was a rasika request. Shri Santhanagopalan asked the audience if they had any preferences n someone said kIravANi n so kIravANi it was... Expansive AlApana...
One word abt the violinist's performance- SUBLIME... He was jus TOO GOOD. Shri NSG himself was all praise, at one point saying that he can replicate practically any phrase that the vocalist sings...

This song list has weight though the keeravani which I have heard from him some time back is a repetiton.
