What an amazing artist he is.. Today, at Jaya Nagar East End he was on vocals….. along with a wonderful flautist Vid Rajkamal Nagaraj and gave an amazing VaNi- VeNu Jugalbandi concert at Sri Rama Mandali, Jayanagar 9th Block this evening.
They were very ably and equally amazingly supported on percussions by Vid. Anuru Dattatreya Sharma, Vid. Vinod Shyam Anoor on Double Mridanga, Drums Mantrika Vid. Arun Kumar on Morsing and another young gem Vid. Sunaad Anoor on Khanjari.. What an evening the capacity audience including Vid. Indira Sharma, Vineetha Rajkamal, Sri Keshava Murthy had…
Chalamela Varna in Natakurinji – Adi was the opening item. Nata raga kriti in Khandachapu Vandisuvudaadiyali with Raga and Swara set the mood for the concert. The Bhakti filled Sujana Jeevana in Khamach- Roopaka invoking the Lord Rama was treat to listen.
The Ragalapane by Vid. Rajkamal followed by Shivu Sir in Dharmavati was excellent.. This was for the main kriti of the evening Bhajanaseya Raada O Manasa with Nerval ans Swara at Niravadi Sukhadayukuni… This item itself was awesome and well received with huge rounds of applause at various points of time.
More was to follow though.. and yes, it was an amazing RTP in Nalinakanthi. Yet another tuneful Ragalapane, excellent rendering of Taana and Pallavi – Rama Raghurama Jayarama with well presented swara kalpane (Ragamalike with Sriranjani, PantuvaraLi, Todi and Sahana) paved way for the much awaited Tani Avartane.
Well, this Tani avartane really deserves special mention and three (err , 4 ) cheers.. Dattanna, Arun, Vinod and Sunaad gelled as a team and excelled in their individual NudisaaNike during the memorable tani.. Wonderful indeed. The 60 + minutes of RTP mesmerized the audience.
Krishna Nee Begane preceded by shloka Vasudevasutam Devam was the last item of the beautiful concert..
