Astika Samajam-Alwarpet arranged a series of concerts as part of Thyagaraja Aradhana
festiva and it was the day of
Sikkil Gurucharan
Tiruvarur Baktavatsalam
S.Varadararajan-Violin
Vakam Gopalakrishnan-Ghatam
The concert was supposed to be for 2.30 hours but delayed and started at 6.50 because TB arrived late. Sharp it ended at 8.50.
Nerenemmi-Kanada
ReJesina-Purnachandrika-PSI Swaram in Rejesina.
Raga Alapana-Kumudakriya followed by
"Ardhanareeswaram and Neraval in "Ardhanareeshwaram"-MD
Srirama Padama- Amritavahini-T
Main-Shankarabharanam-followed by "Enduku peddala"- Neraval in "Veda sastra" and swaram.-T
Tani
nALai varum enru- Chandrakauns-Madurai GS Mani
Iyal isai-Tiruppugazh-Desh-AruNagirinadhar
Mangalam kosalendraya-surutti followed by "Srirama JayamangaLam"
SGC managed to give full justice in raga alapana of both K.kriya and S.Bharanam. Unknown kriti in PSI added value to this though he was referring the book while singing this...
His Shankarabharanam was too good. Pleasure to listen "enduku", the best of T's compositions.
Special mention about Tani. Vaikam and Tiruvarur-I would say performed most of their concerts together. Sort of "Made for each other". Tani for 7 minutes was superb. A good Guru is identified by a good disciple. Delhi S.Sairam is one among many of TB.
