LearnQuest Boston concert on April 11th, 2009




It was a good 30 mts we took for the sound check and it did help us with the outcome of the 90 mts concert which was very well appreciated. It was a huge stage and Mr Marc Rossi, Professor in Berkley University was all praise for Sathya's efforts in bringing out the nuances of carnatic music on keyboard as he himself has performed in many fusion concert with lots of Indian artists. The way audience showed interest to see Sathya and greet him told us on the success of the concert and the highlight was that Suraj, a 10th Grade student in Boston showed interest to learn some tips from Sathya when he was taken to his house by his father. Embar Kannan and Poongulam Subramanian appreciated Sathya for the kalapramanam he had played for the krithis and also for the timing sense in finishing a concert.
