The Richmond rasikas were treated to a memorable Chitravina concert by Shri Ravikiran. The sound emanating from the instrument reflected the bhavam of the lyric and the curves of the sangathis. Ravikiran was very engaging with the crowd. He originally planned on playing the sahana krithi giripai. But upon a request from the audience to play a pallavi, he readily composed one, on stage, much to appreciation of the audience. Each and every one the raga alapanams, sketches or detailed, were a treat for the ears.
Ranjani Ramakrishnan and Ramesh Srinivasan provided excellent accompaniment support.
