The connection between the
performing artiste and rasikas usually gets forged
from the very first piece. But maintaining that
connection till the last piece is possible only for
a very few artistes. T.V. Sankaranarayanan
possesses this rare quality....more |

Srikanth Joysula - Violin
Vinod
Seetharaman - Mridangam
Vidushi Seethalakshmi
was the musician of the connoisseur. If you had
wanted glamour you may not find it here. But if you
wanted to soak in old world Carnatic values, in
depth and weight, you could find it in abundance.
She began with ‘Mooladhara’ (MayamalavaGowlai-Sankaranarayana
Iyer) and Bhuvinidasudane’ (Sriranjani-Tyagaraja)
that followed had crisp swaras that could still
bring out the bhava of the raga. Varali (Karunai
Purindhu-Nilakanta Sivan) seemed tailor-made for her
instincts........more |

Sridhar - Violin, Thanjavur K. Murugaboopathi -
Mridangam
Neyveli R.Santhanagopalan is a
versatile musician who breathes, walks and sings
music. To him music is his lifeblood and it is more
than just a profession. He is a musician steeped in
tradition and yet highly creative and innovative.
His music is deeply evolved around “bhakthi’ and “bhava”
and also attractive and entertaining. His music is
couched in traditional classicism and yet most
popular and mass appealing. He is an effective
bridge between the traditional convention and the
present day environment.He is an idealist who always
seeks and attempts at perfection in any sphere of
musical activity. |

Sowmya always applies herself
completely to the task while making her
presentations and her flight of genius really knows
no bounds. Her scholarly handling of Vagadeeswari at
Krishna Gana Sabha that featured an RTP in this raga
went to prove this point.She must have made a mental
appraisal of this raga gathering its essential
structure and fundamental characteristics with
Tyagaraja’s ‘Paramathmudu,’ as her reference point.
The song itself opens with the vivadi prayoga, . ...more |

February 21st, 2009
Vijaya Desikar -
Violin, Sriram Natarajan - Mridangam,
Balaji
Chandran - Ghatam
Nirmala Rajasekar had
an additional unprecedented hurdle to face. After
her Nattakurinji (‘Bhudhamasrayami’-Dikshitar) the
string (thandhi) gave way. She had come equipped —
nose plier, chalk powder and spare-length thandhi —
and it was a demonstration of sorts as she pressed
the reset button and carried out the change with
amazing alacrity. ‘Varanaradha’ (Vijayashri-Tyagaraja)
beckons fast-paced swaras and these were played at a
pace that was accepted and appropriate. The alapana
for Bhairavi (‘Mugathai Kaati’-Papanasa Mudaliar)
had some perfectly conceived phrases. It was indeed
exemplary and gratifying to see the artiste follow
the practice of rendering the lyrics for the niraval
vocally (‘Saya Rakshayil Vandhu’) along with the
instrument for it to properly register and occupy
the minds of the listeners before its comprehensive
launch. The Tiruppavai of the day (Margazhi - day
3), ‘Ongi Ulagalandha’ in Arabhi was her concluding
song. ...more |
