Popular vocalist S. Shankar gave a Karnatak classical vocal concert at Sri Nadabrahma Sangeetha Sabha on the 23rd of June. He was accompanied by Nalina Mohan on violin, B.C. Manjunath on mridanga and G.S. Ramanujam on ghata.
Endowed with a sturdy voice, Shankar’s renditions are known for neat presentation and clarity in diction, be it a Trinity composition or a D.V. Gundappa’s song. The varna in Saveri ‘Sarasuda ninne’ in Adi tala by Kottavasal Venkata Rama Iyer set the concert in a lively mood.
