Sanjay indeed did complete justice to Saramati. I haven't listened to V.S.Narasimhan's Mokshamu. Shall chk it out soon. Thanks for the link. I think it should be there in sangeethapriya.org. Shall search & let you know. Maybe it was just me who found their concert boring :) Karthik,

Its a beautiful ragam and i am sure sanjay would have done great justice to it! Hope you had a chance to listen to V S Narasimhan's Mokshamu in Saramathy. If not http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGCIbn5ZT0g. I am really missing the December season. Thanks for giving us a few updates. This year i had to chance to listen to sanjay's concert live and in that he sang Oho Kalame! Iam looking for that song. Do you have any link for that? They have cut that song in Marghazhi Mahautsavam 2008! You had also mentioned about Ranjani Gayatri's concert being a little boring. That was really surprising to me because their concerts i have listened to have been really good. Also over the couple of years there has been a great improvement in their renditions. Maybe was just that concert...anyway just a thought... Saramathi RTP must have been great! Its a beautiful ragam and i am sure sanjay would have done great justice to it!

I would have liked it to be something other than a regular Adi Talam one. But I don't think I could have sat through this concert just because of Parama Pavana - have already heard it 3 times this season!! :) And this Swarams at Chitta Swarams turns me off. It doesn't make much sense to me, as it was discussed in detail once at a lec dem. In this case, the composer himself wrote the Chitta Swarams if I am not mistaken and atleast then singing Swarams at the Chitta Swaram is ok. But there are instances when its done in Thyagarajar Krithis where evidently the Chitta Swarams were composed by somebody else. And singing Swarams at Chitta Swarams in such cases is simply irrelevant in my opinion. An exception would be the song Nada Tanumanisham by Thyagarajar where the Sahithyam itself contains SRGMPDN and there are people who sing Chitta Swaram there. Thats quite ok.
