Saraswathi Pooja day Concert at Koothanur Saraswathi Temple - 27 Sep'09




Sathya was indeed blessed to have got the oppurtunity to perform at the Temple of Goddess Saraswathi - God of Music, on the Saraswathi Pooja day this year on the 27th Sep'09. Thanks to Sri. Jayaraman and the temple authorities and it was a good presentation as expressed / informed by them after the concert. The team of Sathya with Karakal Venkatasubramanian on violin, Sri Keerthivasan on the Mrudhangam and Krishnababu on Thalam & kanjeera were appreciated by the interested listeners at the temple. Thanks to a well wisher of Sathya who had come to listen to this concert from Mayavaram, for taking the photos and videos.


and the audio is under serial number 030 of www.sangeethamshare.org/sathya
Interesting news is that it was indeed the first time Sri Keerthivasan was performing for Sathya and they decided to perform the Pancharathna Mallari set to Ata thalam which was discussed just before the concert and the team performed it so well that the Nadaswara vidwan Thirurameswaram Sri TRK Karthegeyan, after the concert, informed that this was indeed the reason for the team to have stayed back for the concert till the end. Thanks for the involvement of the Nadaswara Vidwan who was on thalam throughout. It was also for the first time Sathya attempted to perform aalapana and the kalpanaswaram for Dwajavanthi and what a place to make a start! This shows the blessings the team have probably received from the Goddess of Music Goddess Saraswathi on the holy day of Saraswathi Pooja.
