Sri S Shashank gave an excellent performance at South India Fine Arts (Bay area) on 31st March.
Here is a list of compositions he presented:
1. sAmi ninne - Adi tALa varNa in Sri
2. gAnamUrtE - gAnamUrti - Adi - Tyagaraja
3. evarUra ninnu vina - mOhana - rUpaka - Tyagaraja
4. suma sAyaka - karnATaka kApi - - ST
5. parama pAvana rAma - pUrvakalyANi - Adi
6. RTP in abhEri - khanda tripuTa - tyAgarAja agarAja rAja yOga vaibhavam vaibhavam bhavam vam
7. Bhajan in Sindhubhairavi
I was listening Shashank live after a while, and it was a very enjoyable concert. The rAgAlApanes in gAnamUrti and pUrvakalyAni were done with lot of vishrAnti and that added to the rasAnubhava.
Shashank was very ably accompanied on the violin by B.U.Ganesh Prasad, and on the mRdanga by Parupalli Phalgun Kumar.
