There seems to be something here for everone, and I am sure will serve as an aperitif/hors d'oeuvre for the main December season.

Thanks Ravi. Hope Chennaiites and others receive all the diverse music in huge numbers. A bit of petty pleasure for me

is, that the article refers to the 'other' music as 'world music'. Nice retribution from The Hindu... western media many times refer to indian music as 'world music'.

The bonanza for Chennaiites seems to start even earlier. Look at this announcement in Carnatica about their Bharat Sangeet Utsav:

Impressive line-up! BTW, there is one SM Kulkarni featured in the list of partcipants in the symposium on Saturday Nov. 4th. Our 'coolkarni', by any chance? Also, I see TMK paired with UKS... is this the first time?

Our Kulkarni? Could be!

It is our coolkarni

it is indeed...
If you have seen the TV ad with the lucky winner seated in the airplane next to rahul dravid on his way to the world cup , and not knowing much about cricket , you will get some idea of how i am feeling now ...

That makes 3 highlights; the other 2 being TNS kutcheri on OVK...and N.Ramani paired with UKS...can't be missed.

coolkarni,
You have to bring the point that the future of carnatic music rests on intelligent coercion where all appreciate details, and a prerequisite to that is the concerts have to be atleast 2 1/2 to 3 hours . This is irrespective of whether the crowd is there or not . For every performer(vocalist + violinist+ mridangam artist + tambura artist) there are atleast 3 faithful rasikas. If I come to the debate, I will be viewing you as Rahul Dravid (rather Adam Gilchrist)and others as fellow passengers.

;) and please speak as quickly as possible .
