A fact of life

You write in your blog about missing summer holidays and having to work on all days (I mean weekdays), at a time when you don’t really have much work to do in office. Now what happens! You get more work and you have to stay back late and work on a Friday evening! The more you complain, the more things become bad, isn’t it?

I want summer vacation!

For the first time in my life, I am not having summer vacation! Am missing it so badly :( Having had a holiday yesterday, I am missing it even more! The next holiday on a weekday is only on August 15th! :(

Kharaharapriya all the way!

Today, I got the recording of a concert of Sanjay Subrahmanyan held on 30th July, 2002 at SVN Music Academy, Bangalore. It had a 1-hour 5-minutes RTP in Kharaharapriya sung by Sanjay! What more can you ask for! In the RTP, he has sung the Pallavi ‘rAma nI samAna’ in raagas Kanada, Salaka Bhairavi, Darbar and Siva Ranjani. It’s too good! Sanjay had sung Raga Sudha Rasa in that concert. A 4-minute alapana of Andolika followed by the song is awesome! Can’t stop listening to it! (I am listening to T.M.Krishna’s and Sanjay’s Raga Sudha Rasa alternately now!) I am yet to listen to other songs in that.

Incidentally, today has been a day full of Kharaharapriya!
I listened to Chakkani Raja sung by Sri Chembai Vaidyanatha Bhagavatar, then, another 1-hour RTP in Kharaharapriya sung by Vedavalli and above all, the song I am learning now is Chakkani Raja! :)
