So many new concerts Online

Post by hnbhagavan »

There are many new concerts ONLINE. But very few concerts are reviewed by experts at rasikas.org.
I request more concerts be reviewed.

Elaborate swarams for (1), Ragam for (3) and the entirety of (5) are the highlights of this concert. Post-thani pieces are repetitive as usual, but rendered fairly well.

[Not sure if this a welcome parameter for a concert, but here goes anyway]

Overall Score: 8.5/10. Do listen and add your thoughts.

Excellent concert. (5), (7) and the ragam especially for (10) are astounding, and the composition choice is characteristically diverse. People definitely ought to sing the Kambhoji krithi more often - equivalent to or even better than Evari Mata and O Rangasayi. I was just hoping there would a pallavi also, but the concert even without one stretched to over 3 hours and 40 minutes.

Overall Score: 9/10. Do listen and add your thoughts.

This is a stellar concert by Ashwath Narayanan accompanied by L.Ramakrishnan and N.C.Bharadwaj. The entire team is rocking. Started with Kanada varnam followed by Sivakamsundari (Jaganmohini) and very detailed Saveri and Parasakthi manu with elaborate neraval and swaras. Then came a brisk Varanarada and now Keeravani is flowing.

A must listen concert
