I am just back from a wonderful Kutcheri by Prof.TN Krishnan(TNK) for Nayaki Sabha.He was accompanied by Shri Thiruvarur Bhakthavathsalam(Mridangam) and Vaikom Gopalakrishnan(Ghatam).It was a fantastic concert.Starting off with Vathapi Ganapathim,Shri TNK played Evarani in Harikambhoji next.Then Meenakshi Memudham in Purvikalyani followed.Manavyalakin(Nalinakanthi) was played in a wonderful way.I have never heard Nalinakanthi being played(or sung) in such splendour with soothing Gamakas.Kaa Vaa Vaa in Varali was the next composition.Then,Shri TNK commented that the great setting of the hall prompted him to play Abheri.And there came Nagumomu with a short round of Swaras.Then,came the masterpiece.Thodi,in all its glory.After playing the Ragam,Shri TNK himself said that he had not played such a nice Thodi in quite a while.The composition was Thaye Yashodha.After a good Tani(in which Shri Bhakathavathsalam made good use of the Thoppi),Shri TNK played Chinnanchiru Kiliye and Theeradha Vilayattu Pillai in his typical style.Then,came the unexpected piece -the English note played in the Madurai Mani Iyer Bani.Shri TNK concluded the concert with a Jonpuri Thillana and then the Managalam. Sorry to have used your blog to put up this mini-review.But,I am so influenced by this great Kutcheri that I need to write this down somewhere.(I have a blog,but not updated of late,I hope to get it back soon).Anyway,I hope you don't mind it. Great to know that you too learn Carnatic Music.And I too stay in Abhiramapuram!(though I haven't heard of Ms Sudha,maybe she teaches in Brrhadhwani). Sathej Hello,
