A well-balanced concert by Shertalai Ranganatha Sharma
The Hindu
Abhogi, Begada, Kalyani were all nuanced richly by Shertalai Ranganatha Sharma
Shertalai Ranganatha Sharma’s concert was pleasing not just for his selection of ragas and compositions but also in how he balanced the concert between the various songs.
Beginning his recital with G.N. Balasubramaniam’s Ranjani varnam ‘Amboruha padame’, he moved on to Dikshitar’s ‘Panchamathanga’ in raga Malahari. An essay in Abhogi with the kriti ‘Ni keppudu daya vachuno’ by Mysore Sadashiva Rao highlighted the raga’s charm.
Ranganatha Sharma provided a poignant niraval at ‘Samayamu juchi delpu vaarevaro’, embellishing it with a few rounds of kalpanaswaras.
