It is a treat to watch Neyveli Narayanan in this video. Scintillating stuff.

Thanks VK . For letting me back , in.

Best for your Nov 20 concert. Having listened to this and other recordings you have posted, I am sure Shri Tadepalli will deliver. I am curious to know who your finalists and semi-finalists and quarter-finalists were.

Losing Finalist

All the facets you mentioned are here . In plenty . The scrambled Neraval ( It is delightfully done for E Thavunnara ) , the sedate pace , clear enunciation of the lyrics .


Looking forward to your commentary

That was truly fantastic. First I said let me go through in order from quarterfinalists to losing finalist. I started with the Bhairavi as the first quarter-finalist, Wonderful kala pramanam, maybe MDR's second speed! Such clear recording. It is like he is sitting just right there and singing just for you. One can actually hear each and every word so clearly that it is as if he is the "laxmanji" reading the lyrics for someone who requested the sahitya . The style is slow but then not leisurely. After listening to this, I was so mesmerised, I cheated and could not resist my temptation to dive to the "losing finalist". And what a gift for me. My number 1 raga and my favourite song. The violinist has also played equally well. Only small disappointment, that towards the end around 9:32 the swaram seem to be cut off and suddenly it is over. Is that portion missing in the original as well? If available and possible, may I request you to upload the one without the missing portion. Of course I am very eager to listen to the "winning finalist". I will now go back and listen to the remaining songs. Are all these songs from the same concert? Who are the accompanists?

I also watched and listened to the "Tulasidala" on the video. Although it is nice to see, probably I will not put that in the same category of what you have culled out for us in the form of quarter/semi/finalists.

My sincere thanks for introducing this artiste and specially for this collection. I am not anywhere near Chennai to be present for Nov. 20 concert. My best wishes for the concert.

The losing finalist - the track was as recorded from the tape . It was cut short .
So let us assume that this track retired hurt ;(

The winning finalist was the one which thenpanan has described in such detail .
Accompanists .
Not much detail is available except in one case where M Narmada accompanies . You can see her class is very close to that of MSG's in those tracks. I forget which.
Different Concerts / Yes they were culled out from various concerts sung in Andhra and Hubli .

the Video
Yes I put it up in the context of the scrambled neraval , thenpanan was referring to .It is seen in abundance here .
And for the act of Neyveli Narayanan , which is brilliant throughout.

The Artist
Yes he is such a fine artist , isn't he ?.
I will put up some remaining tracks as well, including a blistering RTP

It is our loss that you will not be present for this concert.
Having said that , This artist has permitted us to record on Video . So you can still take away something from this concert.

Jinxed because govindan attends? I mentioned about Sarma in 2007. Since then, I am trying to chase him. Probably, I should go to tADapalli to hear him.

Actually he was supposed to sing for us this new year (Jan 1st 2010), which got cancelled as he couldn't make it due to the train cancellation, thanks to the "Telengana" issue.......
