Music san noise is always pleasure, especially an early morning session in a close settings. It indeed is a challenge for the artist to perform with only tanpura to support. The short comings of the vocal issues will be out in the open , not hidden by the violin. Also, it is difficult to engage the audience for a longer period with out a percussion to add to the effect. There is also the issue of voice being ready for an early cold morning concert. But, Vidushi Tanmayee Krishnamurthy overcome all those inhibitions with a classy concert on the last morning of the year.
I liked the way she planned the morning. Eased through the early part, spent a lot of time of Shlokam/ugabhoga , spread the morning thtough various composers, mixed it up well and added her bit with two well done kalpana swaras. She, probably could have skipped the ‘pAlincu kAmAkSi’ after the listerner’s choice was in favour of the earlier abhEri. A couple of slips at the lyrics was the only miss in the whole day. She can also look at some of the word stresses in future ( bAramA/ bhAramA , ghalanEni/galanEni, dhootam/dootam etc).
Impressive voice, presentation and manodharmam. Both bahudhari and abheri kalpana swaras were very good, so was the short alapana of abheri. Finally, a grand way to end another musical year for me.
