Malladi Brothers,RamasevaMandai-FHS,18th April 2014

Post by arvenky »

They are going to perform near my house on coming 20th Sunday (Seshadripuram) but still I prefer to cross country for this concert in FHS reason being the percussionists KV Prasad,S Karthi & N Amrith. Also bad acoustic experience with Seshadripuram concerts made me to go for this concert.

One would be really feel happy looking at the list of krithis and immediately conclude this would have been an impressive concert.

But there is always spoilers waiting :-(
1. Embar Kannan missing :-(. I heard he didnt turn up for Hyd Brothers concert too. No idea who played the violin today.
2. No sign of N Amrith - Mightily upset since I went to this concert for Special Thani of the trio.
3. Acoustic trouble started right from first note. There was one big 'bass" sound kept on coming. The guy at the console was clueless. Both Prasad and Karthik were trying instruct him to but in vain. The noise, looked to me coming out of one of the Sruthi. This continued till Darbar (3rd krithi) and got reduced a bit.
By that time I got frustrated and wanted to step out. Lost interest completely.
4. I also observed the all the artists on the stage were not all that comfortable. I could make out from their body language there is something missing .
5. Evident that there were very short Neravals and Swaras which was really surprising.
I just waited for the main krithi to finish and walked out when Thani started. I never walk out during Thani but today is not my day.

This is purely my personal opinion and strongly felt that there was something the artists could be feeling missing/messing.

Venky,

The issue was largely with the feedback speakers. Probably the hall acoustic was the issue. The place where I was seated, it was comfortable.
