All these artistes must be compelled to listen to Aliveni by the great KVN who popularized this song along with Lalgudi and Palghat Raghe navaratri kutcheri! They ought to present kutcheris in their proper forms including the vilambitha kala rendering of Ali veni
As a Kerala- transplant living in Calif I am happy there are Carnatic artistes in Kerala. But -- they have to learn when to beat fast and when to slow and when to adapt to differnt style of beating. Sorry ...
I am not kidding; in Chennai too all these young vidwans/vidushis are indulging in this type of fast swarams; apparently this is what the audience want. I have no option but to cull tapes of eMDeeyaaR, Ramnad Krishnan, Vairamangalam Lakshminarayana, Ayyalur Krishnan, Tanjavur Kalyanaraman, TM Thyagarjan, Dr Baby Sreeram, Smt Seetha Narayanan ... Asaveri is to be sung softly ... mridangam has already set the fast tone ; poor vidushi has no choice to follow along. Imagine MDR singing Leka nannu in a fast way ... no escape for me. Just to put up with one unending flow of ear assault.
On a temple festival ground with mutitudes of people milling around chatting as a social contact time this kind of percussion in its loud -- forget for a moment Mridagam stands for "Mridu" "angam" -- meaning soft sounds; with pauses -- listen to the Abhinavanandi Palghat Mani Iyer -- for the rasika to dwell on the meaning of the words and phrases. Here everything is done in a huury as if to catch the only night train. Sorry ... the vidushi deserves better pakkoms.
I must applaud the vidushi for explaining a new concept of Savavarnam. The Natta song Pahi shaure is rare and wholly welcome. I hope and pray that this sweet Natakuranji will not end up with another percussiony sound assault. But the mridangam is the culprit with fast beating forcing the singer to render fast any way.
Why the need for FAST swaras with every song? The undesirable pattern becomes an assault on the rasika's ears. The mridangam sets the fast tempo with the same style of fingering no matter what song is sung. Add to mridangam ghatom and morsing. It is simply a noisy riot.
Excellent concert from beginning to end Anish Adoor functions like well versed artists Every moments enjoyable Co artists did extremely well Fabulous moments Effortlessly done by everyone On the whole superb!! Sam Sivaramalingam
A different way of presentation of kirtanas with creative method of singing the sangatis by Vidushi Nandini Rao makes the concert highly enjoyable. The supporting artists are no less in their proficiency making the listening experience really wholesome.
Nice concert as expected from Amrutha Venkatesh ,but marred by improper adjustments of audio volumes between voice and the instruments. Voice was getting drowned in the sound of the instruments. Only in alapana voice could be heard distinctly. Even after pointing out by Amrutha, the same continued. .
