Sathya performed at the Narada Gana Sabha mini hall for the first time under NGS. The team of B Ananthakrishnan on violin and Trivandrum Balaji on mrudhangam gave great enhancement and the concert was indeed a great success in terms of retaining the almost full house throughout the 85mts of concert. 1230 - 1355
Sathya started the concert with Ata thala varnam on Bhairavi with the right tempo and followed it by Jaya Jaya on nattai with a good alapana and swaraprayogam. He then went on to perform a good raga alapana of Nalinakanthi followed by the krithi Neepathamegathi. Oothukadu Venkatakavi's Balasarasamurali on keeravani was played at a crisp speed.
Mathurambika krithi on Hemavathy was followed by Adamodigaladha on charukesi which had a great alapana renedered by Sathya and Ananthakrishnan. Vanaspathi and RAsikapriya were the ragas chosen for swararagamalika which was followed by a short sweet thani by Trivandrum Balaji. Sathya, on the request of a rasika played Katrinile varum Geetham and rounded off with Revathy raga thillana copmosed by Lalgudi sir.
The crowd present showed the responsibility Sathya has in the future to increase his reporte and also choice of krithi's and raga presentation. As Sathya mentioned in his POGO finals with Sri Sivamani, he is aware of the expectatios of his rasikas and hope he will surely live up to it.
