Sanjay- Music Academy - 2012

Sanjay gave a soothing concert in MA


No double tambura, no double “radal”, no half a dozen disciples, no laptop, tablet, books, no half a dozen flasks with different color hot drinks, no dozen chains hanging in the neck- Sanjay.

Mellifluous voice, the amount of “uzhaippu” with his limitations in his voice, nAdaswara/somu pudis-Sanjay.

At 9 AM, when I went to Music Academy to buy ticket, the dais was full and they have LCD tickets (mini hall) that to only 5 tickets. Priced same as dais, I purchased two for my family members.

This must be the 12th kutcheri of his last 15 days tryst. The previous day, his valaji RTP and “hindi” pallavi in KGS was greeted “sitting” as well as “standing” applause. (I heard)

Endu dAginadO- Talking to very close committee members of MA, ardent devotee of ThyagarAja, he emphasised the 3rd saraNam of this kriti (where the mudra was there) could have been taken instead of first.

He had to cut short of Arabhi because of time. But it was very good. Maduvanthi, in Hindustani style” was too good.

All plastic chairs in between the rows in VIP area shows the love the crowd has in sanjay’s music.
