Kumaresh and Jayanthi get full house

Violinist Kumaresh and veena artiste Jayanthi Kumaresh got a packed house for their concert in Basaweshwaranagar on Friday evening.

This was expected considering the reputation of this couple.
It took a good amount of time for the concert to start - the artistes keen to balance the sound and unhappy with the 'audio bounce' that they were receiving on stage.

Kumaresh and Jayanthi are contrasts - while she settles in quickly and is at peace with herself the violinist gets engaged all around him.
"She is the boss," Kumaresh quipped as the team took time to decide on their next song midway through the concert.
Jayanthi though did not show it.

In K U Jayachadra Rao ( mridangam) and Pramath Kiran ( konnakol and tabla) the duo had able co-artistes and much of the packed house stayed on till the end.


At the Friday concert was veena maestro and Jayanthi's guru ( and aunt) Padmavathy Ananthagopalan now in her 80s. She say through the concert and was then invited on to the stage to honour the four artistes of the concert - a special moment for them.
