TNS Krishna @ Raha Sudha Sept 22

[sureshvv]

Opening with Kambodhi overview leading to the Ata tala varnan. Majestic rendition in unhurried gait reminiscent of the bedecked elephants at the Seeveli.

Viruttam in nattai. Voice has opened up & sangatis are hurtling forward one over another. Ganapathy thaalai of Bharathiyaar. Barrage of swaras at pallavi line. Both Madhavan & Akshay embellishing in 2nd speed in scintillating fashion. Ending with a clipped korvai eliciting spontaneous applause for both the vocalist & violinist.

Varali alapana with plenty of TNesqe breathless & breathfull passages leading to a soaring sloka on Seshashaila hinting at the kriti to follow. Madhavan playing ka va va in his reply!

Half a dozen sangatis at Mandahasa vadanam & now onto neraval @ aravinda patra nayanam.
