Concert for Rasika Fine Arts January 02, 2011

After back to back concert in the morning and evening on the first day of the year i.e. on the 1st January Sathya also performed on the 2nd January 2011, morning for a chamber concert! Yes it was a hectic schedule right from the late evening concert on the 31st December, 2010 with heArtbeat concert for Sri Rama Baktha Jana Sabha from 8 - 10pm then on to Music Academy for the New Year Bash till 1 am on 1st Jan'11, IFA concert at German Hall @ 9am followed by 2 and hour concert for Kunnakudy School of Music at Sri Marundheeswarar Temple, Thiruvanmiyur from 630 pm and now this concert at Rasika Fine Arts, K. K. Nagar held at Jayagopal Garodia School! 

Well it was indeed a hectic schedule and kudos to Sathya, he did justify every concert with different approaches with various artists involved and taking up different ragas / krithis! A great test of endurance and by the Grace of Almighty he took it up in the right way.  Do listen to all the links of the audio / videos of these concert and you can come to your own conclusion on his abilities!

In this concert he was enhanced by B. Ananthakrishnan on Violin, Arjun Ganesh on Mrudhangam and Hariharasubramanian on Ghatam. The challenge Sathya faced here was little hard as his concert was after a soul filing excellent presentation by Sow. Sriranjani Santhanagopalan on vocal! By the Grace of God  Sathya not only was able to hold the audience but also got great appreaciation from one and all! The President of teh sabha had a speacial mention on the audience turn out and the way Sathya held them!

Concert for The Indian Fines Arts on January 01, 2011 - German Hall, T. Nagar

It has been long time i wrote on the blog as i was a little held up due to various reasons! I shall continue to do this work without fail in future! Wishing every one a Very Happy 2011.

ஜனவரி ஒன்றாம் தேதி நடந்த இந்த கச்சேரி ரொம்ப நல்ல இருந்தது. முதல் தடவை பெங்களூர் சுசீந்திரா மிருதங்கம் சத்யாவுக்கு வாசித்தர். After the late night music show at the Music Academy all of the artists were little tired and as this was in the morning 9 am slot we did not expect muh audience as we thought people normally go to temple and relax at home watching the famous programmes in TV channels. To our luck we also had some people for our concert and this was enhanced very well by Sri B. Ananthakrishnan on Violin and Sri H. Sivaramakarishnan on the ghatam. Mr Srinivasan as usual came on stage and appreciated SAthya for all his efforts & congratulated him on getting the recognition from "AIR". He almost also tested him by making him play phrases on "Desh" and saing "துன்பம்நேர்கயில் யாழெடுத்து நீ", He appreciated his efforts and praised every artist on stage for their  super enhancement.
