Each piece was rendered in a classical way. All the AlApanais were quite moving. The concert started off with a weighty rendition of the kAnaDA varNam. Even the popularly-beaten-to-death vAtApi gaNapatim was rendered with a different style of classicism. The svarams in supradIpam and Anandabhairavi were beautiful. Each AlApanai which followed was amazingly rendered. The bhairavi svarajathi was moving. The suruTTi kriti, the version was very different and a lot more bhava laden than the popular versions. All the accompanists were good

It was overall a very very inspiring and moving concert.

bharath,
Never heard this krithi , googled to find only the same vidushi kalpagam mAmi referenced. How close is this Anandabhairavi krithi in relation to other Anandabhairavi krithi's .

In modern days, those who miss these kinds of performances are the ones that have not accrued punya in our previous lives.

So much of vintage music available for the really 'lucky ones'-as srkris said

Nice to see that vainika accompanied her this time.
Hoping to hear KS play this season, and also Ramki...

@ Arasi and Vijay

You people are referring to L Ramakrishnan or to our srkris? I guess the former?.

Sathej · Post by **Sathej** » 01 Oct 2008, 10:39

It has to be L Ramakrishnan who writes as vainika in this forum.

Ah yes Srkris is also Ramki! In this case I am assuming it is Ramki who has the handle of vainika on this forum! Who knows, maybe srkris is also a vainika?

Mami's radio programme is being telecasted on sunday, 5th october in the afternoon on FM Gold 102.3 FM. Those in madras can listen to it. I think it is from 3 to 4 pm.
