This is also a better late than never post! The past two weeks have been great what with 3 excellent concerts of Sanjay’s, that too Sanjay being accompanied by Varadarajan on the violin (my favourite combo) for all the concerts! If I start describing the concerts, this would become similar to all my earlier posts on Sanjay’s concerts. 😉 So I am going to post just the songs lists. Here are the list of songs sung by Sanjay in the past three concerts (including today’s) that I went to.
