April 21, 2011 Villiwakkam Sath Sangam, Rajaji Nagar Concert.


It is indeed a second home for Sathya as the rasikas here are so fond of him and so is the organisation, with President Sri Sambamoorthy being the best of the cheer leaders! He is so particular that he gives Sathya the best comforts whenever he comes there to perform. This concert today as enhanced by Sri Kandadevi Vijayaraghavan on Violin, Sri Thillaisthanam Suriyanarayanan on Mrudhangam and Sri Ambattur Sundar on Tabla. It is is indeed a great point to note that whenever Sathya teams up with Sri. Sundar it always becomes a landmark concert and this was also one which was attended by Sri. Gopalji, Director of Dinamalar - a leading Tamil daily as Chief Guest and which print media is one of the reasons for Sathya's success growth story. 

Sathya has been performing almost every year from 2006 and so decided to present krithis which was not presented in this forum. It was also interesting that the song Alaipayudhey requested by the Chief Guest has not been played here before by Sathya. Audio tracks of this concert is available in the link :
