Could you please share the URL where this is located? On a related vein, why do performers rarely announce the raagas during a concert? I can understand that they wouldn't want to announce the details before the piece so that experts like yourself can take joy in identifying the raagam, but why not make a quick announcement afterwards? Knowing what you just listened to would enhance the concert experience a lot, at least for me. Why shut out the non-experts this way?
