The chembai/jesudas piece is a classic. Was it pun when you said 'teaching'? Sounds
like KJY is backing-up chembai. KJY voice is so sweet those days! As Arvind said, done a
decent job.
Impressive! Liked both songs. Good voice and some nice briga's. Will be interesting to hear more detailed
pieces with raga delineations and swara's. Do post from your recent concert(s).
BTW, always wondered what's the real raga of 'tumka chalat'. Hard to accept the jaijaiwanti label.
NOV, don't judge her voice from film songs. I think she tries a different tone there. In carnatic, she's one of the best in tonal purity. Just listen to her songs like 'paal vadiyum mugam', 'kanda naal mudhalaai', etc. Great blend of feel,classicism&voice! (Nithyasri is a bit on the screechy side.. and, Sowmya too carnatic ) Well.. I think we are talking different tastes here
However, nothing to take away from the aruna's piece. Real good one! Enna.. seshtaigal paakka thaan konjam bayama irukku..
BTW, unga favorite gods yaarunnu engalukku theriyum. Onnum prove panna venaam.
Highlight: a detailed ragamalika piece culminating in swara's tracing all the ragas.
Is it just me.. Sanjay is starting to sound like Maharajapuram (to some extent in looks as well ) and
even tries out some not-so-carnatic-like phrases.
