Day 6: Madras Music Season - Mambalam Sisters
Totally unplanned concert. Today was supposed to be a day of rest for me. But then, amma realized that, Mambalam Sisters were singing in PSBB school (KK Nagar). Too close to miss. In a way, I think I am thankful that we did not miss it. Awesome concert.
-
Went a little late.
-
Awesome concert.
-
Trivia - Father - Ganjira - Two daughters singing, and third daughter on the violin - it was a whole family singing.
-
They sang the thirupugazh of the day - very traditional - I like it.
-
It has been a long time since I heard Chalamelara.
-
Main ghana ragam was Sankarabharanam - Akshaya Linga (today was Arudhra Darshanam).
-
Begabaro was a nice fast paced composition.
-
Manu pugazh Kosalaithan - a nice lullaby put everybody into a swaying mood (yes - the kknagar mami's also sway!)
PS: I leave back to Bangalore tomorrow late night 11PM Volvo - There is a decision that still needs to be taken for tomorrow - TVSankaranarayanan at Gorodia School (or) Sanjay Subramanyam at PSBB KKNagar school
