Sudha
Started the concert with Mathe Malayadvaja Pandya sanjathe,a
composition in Khamas of Hariakesanallur Muthiaha Bhagavathar.It
is a song suited to the pace of Sudha and it was exhilarating
to hear her sing the piece and the swarajathis. This song
set the tone for the rest of the concert. Siddhi vinayakam,Sadinchane,Nagumo
and Padame thunai in valaj were all rendered beautifully and
in quick succession. Shyama Sastri' s "Meenalochani Brova
" in dhanyasi was laden with rasabhava and was the most
beautifully rendered piece. Keeravani raga was given a prime
place and Sudha took up "Kaligiyunte Kadha", a Thyagaraja
composition, and presented it in all its splendour, with swaraprasthara.
Then followed a barrage of thukkada pieces in tamill~ kannada
,and even a Meera Bajan. The ragamalika ,Sonnadai seidida
sahasama, popularized by GNB brought nostalgic memories to
many in the audience. The concluding piece was thillana in
Revathi which superb. Sri Ramkumar on the voilen and Neyveli
Skamda Subramaniam able supported the concert. |
