Shanmukhananda Sabha Performance

One of my dream milestones that I achieved on the 16th of January 2010, was the Shanmukhananda Sabha performance!!

This performance marks the achievement of a part my dream.. the fact that I set a big milestone and achieved it, boosted my spirit to achieve further.

The highlight of this performance was the Ragam-Tanam-Pallavi piece (my first ever on a public platform), in ragam Kharaharapriya, 'Param Giri Valar Vadivelane, Murugane, Panniru kaiyannai tiru', ending with a Ragamalikai of 4 ragams (Hamsanaadam, Chandrakauns, Natakurinji and Behag).

I was also happy that the performance went off effortlessly well, despite my initial set of nerves, in this regard.

Still many more milestones to achieve .... the road is long, but the will is strong and the determination great!

Rohini,
Great attempt. I loved the design and the ambience - it is refreshing as against the standard classical musicians sites.

Also, learnt that you have written cute poems - you are quite a thinker. Nice to see your attempt at Hindustani / commercial music. Good Luck, I am sure your efforts in music will bear fruits not only for you but for listeners of carnatic music. Overall nice to see a Chemburite take this effort. Bye, Kanchana
