Yesterday was my first concert of this music season. It was a the Krishna Gana Sabha and the newly done up hall is superb both aesthetically and acoustically. I sang from 2pm to 4 pm at the new mini hall which is behind the main hall (next to the canteen).

I sang a fairly standard concert list. Devanathan was on the violin and Krishna (son of Vidwan Mannargudi Easwaran) was on the mridanga.



Here goes the list:

1) sarasuda - saveri - adi - varnam

2) swaminatha paripalaya - nata - adi - dikshitar (S)

3) sujana jeevana - khamas - rupaka - thyagaraja

4) ramanatham bhajeham - pantuvarali - rupaka - dikshitar (r,n,s)

5) chinna nadena - kalanidhi - adi - thyagaraja

6) kaddanuvariki - todi - adi - thyagaraja (R,N,S + Thani)

7) parulanna mata - kapi - rupaka - dharmapuri subbaraya

8) bruhi mukundethi - junjuti - adi - sadasiva bramhendra
