Bengalooru Habba 2007 - Sathya on the 4th Dec'07 at Gayana Samaja.


It was a good oppurtunity for Sathya to have performed for Bungalooru Habba 2007 and he performed at the Gayana Samaj on the 4th Dec'07 along with M. Rajeev on Violin, Thilaisthanam Suriyanaryanan on Mrudhangam and Sri Thirukannapuram J Sowrirajan on Ghatam, Morsing & Konnakol. Sathya started off with Hamsadwani varnam and did raga alapanas for Suddha Dhanyasi, Keeravani, PoorviKalyani and Aberi. Sathya & Rajeev's alapana presentation was well appreciated and so was the kalpana swaras for Hamsadwani varnam, Atana, Poorvikalyani and Aberi krithis. Both Suriyanarayanan and Sowrirajan were enhancing the concert with their rhythm and the thani was earmarked with all the three talents of Sowrirajan coming out with great timing. The concert ended with Bagyadhalakshmi in Madhyamavathi.

There were couple of young audience who wanted to watch Sathya's finger movements and were asked to come and sit behind him for almost half the concert. It was nice to see interest shown by these kids in our traditional music even though, they were in Carnatic on Keyboard concert. One of the organisors who was present gave Sathya and the team compliments with a likely assurance of a concept concert next year. Indeed this says about the success of the presentation. The details of the pieces presented were as follows:

01. Varnam - Hamsadwani -Adhi
02. SriMahaganapathim - Atana - Adhi
