It was a totally classical concert by the veteran artist. Each piece was rendered with a traditional flavour and the necessary gait. The starting short AlApanai was umAbaraNam in itself was a standing testament of the artist's vidwat. Each piece that followed and the manOdarma packages that were added were all amazing and made it a concert to cherish for a long time. The AlApanais of aTANA, sAvEri, rItigauLa and the main bhairavi were all done in a very classical fashion with no unwanted frills. They were carefully woven with classical phrases to form a beautiful picture of the rAgam. The choice of pieces and rAgams was quite nice and made it a very nice concert. The accompanists did a great job in accompanying the main artists in a very anticipatory fashion, thus adding to the overall enjoyment of the concert.
Overall the team made it a great concert
