St Louis concert for Sangeetha on april 25, 2009




A perfect change in weather form 38 degree F to 90 degree F bringing remembrance of Chennai weather for all of us did not change the quality of performance by the team of Sathya, Embar Kannan and Poongulam Subramanian this day. Ms Mahitha Bharadwaj, who also performs Carnatic on keyboard introduced the artists and it was one of the nice things that a cultural exchange of keyboard artists has taken place with this concert in St. Louis as Ms Mahitha has already performed in Chennai the city where Sathya lives. The main ragam for the day was in Mohanam and the team also performed few krithis as per audience request. The video clipping of Mr Bala tells the success story of this concert.
