Guntur Concet on 22nd Jul, 2006


Sathya for his 275th concert was in Guntur for the second time and now under Gayathri Mahila Sangeetha Samandali Samaj and had the oppurtunity to perform at the Sri Venkateswara Temple premisses with a crowd of almost 1000 people. He had Smt Durga Bhavani, a senior Violin artist of All India Radio, Vijayawarda along with Sri Thillaisthanam Suriyanarayanan on mrudhangam and Harihara Subramaniam on ghatam as his enhancement team. The concert was co-ordinated thanks to Mr Sastry, Founder, Sarada Fine Arts Academy, Bapatla.
While he was performing his main item for the day, Nagumomu on Aberi as per the request of the audience and just before the start of charanam rain started pouring and the concert had to
end abruptly being on the open grounds. A video link of the song Varavallaba http://tinyurl.com/hd54e
The song list performed is as follows:
01. Varnam - Mohanam _ Adi
02. Varavallaba - Hamsadwani - Adi
03. Sobillu - Jaganmohni - Rupakam
04. Entharomahanubhavulu - Sri - Adi
05. Guruleka - Gowrimanohari - Kanda Chappu
06. Niravathisukatha - Ravichandrika - Adi
07. Bramamokete
08. Deva Deva - Mayamalawagowla - Rupakam
09. Raguvamsasudha - Kadhanakudhukalam - Adi
10. Western notation based on natabhairavi
11. Nagumomu - Aberi - Adi
The President of the Mahila sabha wanted Sathya to perform Jagadho dharaka and Mohana Kalyani Thillana which request request could not be fulfilled due to rain., The entire crowd present was for once feeling bad the rains as it interupted SAthya's concert. Well this has probably given way for Sathya to perform here in the premises of Lord Venkateswara Temple again in the near future.
