The Different Shades of Lalgudi Jayaraman sir’s Music:
What a delightful concert it was!!! A concept woven very intelligently with brilliant aesthetics making it a real tribute to, The One and Only `Lalgudi G Jayaraman sir`.
Every composition of his was covered in a duration of 120 minutes, including the once he had popularized, such as The Lalgudi pancharatna. It surely kept the crowd on their feet and I could make out many maamis and paatis sitting in our row, very curious of the next move.
With highly eminent vocalists like Bombay Jayashree ma’am and Abhishek Raghuram sir every bhava and subtleties were brought out in grandeur. Vittal sir and Kannan sir were at their best, they were not bowing the strings of their violin for they were playing the strings of the listener’s heart.
The swaras which were delicately picked from the Charukeshi Varna of Sri Lalgudi Jayaraman sir were encompassed to the kriti “ Mata laadamodi Galada “ to bring in the concept of Poruttam popularized by the Legend himself. The Grahabedha jatiswara got into every thillana composed by the master after the grabedha swara and portrayed some deep and intricate thinking put into composing the piece.
Sarvam Brahmamayam, in the end just melted the heart of the listeners. It left many, broken hearted for the program was over and many, with tears for having experienced such an intellectually, intuitional act.
