Video clippings of TTD, Chennai Concert 04 August, 2010

This is the concert performed by Sathya & team of Karaikal Venkatasubramanian on Violin, R. Sankaranarayanan on mrudhangam and Valangaiman Hariharasubramanian on Ghatam. It came out very well as the audience appreciated attempts of Sathya to perform many Annamaya krithis. The Thanam presentation in Hamsanandhi, even though for a short duration was well received by the audience and so was the krithi Srinivasa Thiruvengatamudayan.

Song from Enthiran - Kadhal Anukkal - an attempt by this wonderful team

It was a again another oppurtunity like Sahana - song in Sivaji whch was performed on the second da of its Audio launch. Yes! Sathya, thanks to his cousin Vikram Sarathy, took this song from the original track which reached by courier with a Poster of a still from the moview along with signature of our "Super star Rajinikanth". Great effort by the team of Drumer Sridhar, Bass Guitar Suri and Karaikal Venkatasubramanian on the violin.

Another first attempt was this famous devotional number "Karpoora Nayagiye Kanagavalli" by the team with Pradeep on Tabla, Rajagopal on Timing and other percusions and Kumbakonam Swaminathan on Mrudhangam and 4 other songs in this playlist below:

New Attempts in a public concert - for MahaPeriyava Jayanthi

It was indeed a divine atmosphere which probably made Sathya to attempt these two krithis which are rarely performed now-a-days. H/ever Sankaracharyam was sung by POGO Amazing Singer 2008 - Abilash on the same day as main piece and so Sathya decided to just perform the song and not elaborate it with aalapana & kalpanaswaram. Sathya took up Manavati Krithi Yevaridho and tried out kaplanaswaram for the same.

Sankaracharyam - Sankarabaranam

Yevaridho - Manavati

The highlight is that these two krithis were sung Veenai Vidhwan Sri Karaikurichi Balaji and his daghter Ms Poornima when they had visited Sathya's house. We had recorded their singing - with their permission. As Sathya liked both the krithis he decided learn it from this recording itself and performed it on this auspicious day - Anusham & Jayanthi day of Maha Periyava. The place, Temple of MahaPeriyava's Pathugai located at PS Sivaswami Salai was indeed a apt location with full of divinity all over.
