It was a wonderful concert. With such an unconventional start, and with so many many not-so-often heard kritis, with 4 heavy rAgams elaborated with full justice, with classical music at its pristine pure form, with absolutely matching accompanists, it was a concert to not forget for a long time to come. Each kriti was rendered with absolute bhavam and with all those beautiful sangatis. Each rAga AlApanai was just to the right proportion and filled with the right phrases at the right places. The neraval and svarams were all the way they should have been. The accompanists played as they should have. Giving the perfect accompaniment and replies in their solo versions.
Great Concert.
