I reached the venue when raghunAyaka was being sung and so might have missed out on a song or two.
Hello,
I too attended the kutcheri.The first song was Sri Ganapathi Ni in Saurashtra – Adi Talam by Thyagaraja.Where were you seated?Are you the person who initially sat down and then shifted to first row?
The Kutcheri was very good,but it was rather short.The Kalpana warams were good by Shri Anantharaman.Such kutcheris by veterans must become a more regular feature.
Sathej
I was one of the persons who initially sat down and then shifted to first row. I was wearing a blue T-shirt with stripes. Where were you seated?
Yup .. the kutcheri was very very short.
