raghupate rama : a very rarely rendered piece I guess . I have heard this in VSiva's album once and never later.

I was there for this concert from s'bharanam swaram onwards, picking few numbers before the start of suryaprakAsh concert .She was very good , perhaps little more lift towards the end would have been nice .Her rendtion of the viruththam was very emotive (especially kApi)and excellent and the finish in mAnji topped up well

I am of the firm opinion that the Music Academy should have promoted her this year.

It was a very impressive concert. The youngster did a very good job with the pieces and handled them very elegantly. There was a deep classical touch to all that was rendered. The accompanists were very good as well.
