Sanjay Subramanian at Tamil Isai Sangam on 29th December 2011

Sanjay Subramanian - Vocal
Palakkad Maheshkumar - Mridangam
Varadharajan - Violin
Selvaganesh - Ganjira

Raja annamali manram is the ony auditorium which is illuminated and looks like kalyAnam mandapam. Even the podium looks really nice and a big hall
Pouring heavily and expecting "thane" storm, I expected a less crowd. It was reasonable.

No Flask, sipping hotwater after every song
No Library of books"

A superb Karaharapriya and varadharajan's excellant return was the highlight that actually forgot our worries of heavy
downpouring and "Thane" storm.

I know Varadarajan-Sanjay combination is always good. Yesterday was another superb day to reckon.

In pallavi- In the word "enbar". He broke it into "en" and "bar" to aligh with tAlam. It does not convey any meaning though it sounded nice.
I think, he needs to think before rendering the pallavi.

Tani was excellant. Selvaganesh has improved a lot in his Ganjira. Well done.
