S.v.Sudarsan- Violin
Srivanchiam Sriram-Mridangam
I had reached early for the Bombay Jayashree kucheri at Krishna Gana Sabha.... Had a quick bite at The Krishna sweets outlet...and walked in to the mini hall...
Deepika was singing Cheraravademira...post that was a brisk Neevada negana in Saranga.... She had taken up thodi a tad early and sang Chesinadella with Neraval and swarams at the anupallavi line....There was a little less than an hour left when the Thani avartanam got over. She started singing Ramamanohari ragam... Sudarshan's essay was good as well. I thought her ragam singing was really good compared to the Tanam. The Pallavi on lord Krishna was set in kanda triputa talam... The ragamalika swarams had Revathi, Valaji and Shudhsarang which drew a lot of appreciation...Deepika traversed back through these ragams to finish off with a nice korvai in Ramamanohari. Srivanchiam sriram was very supportive in his accompaniment... I wanted to get a good place in the main hall for Jayashree's kucheri....so started off as soon as the Pallavi got over...!
