The IndianOil Now Hear Us Series: Episode 2 feat. Brindha Manickavasakan
Here's the second episode of the much anticipated IndianOil Now Hear Us Digital Concert Series. This episode features the effervescent and supremely talented Carnatic vocalist Brindha Manickavasakan.
She begins her performance with a Muthuswamy Dikshitar kriti in Ragam Nattai called Swaminatha. She goes on to perform beautiful compositions in Ragams Devagandhari, Simhendramadhyama and Punnagavarali that were taught to her by her long-standing guru Vidushi Suguna Varadachari of the famed Musiri Bani.
The highlight of Brindha's performance is "Kadaikkan", a composition by Ramaswami Sivan in Ragam Begada. She closes her recital with a lovely piece in Ragam Durga followed by a Thillana in Poornachandrika composed by Poochi Srinivasa Iyengar.
Brindha is given rock solid accompaniment by her close friends and contemporaries, L Ramakrishnan on violin, the much-in-demand Praveen Sparsh on mridangam and Anirudh Athreya on kanjira.

Very rare to hear the singer playing the tambura and keeping the thalam with her feet. She is effortless in this concert and wish her all the best.

What a blissful music this bunch of young artistes have produced today! Brinda is outstanding. Her Devagandhari brought tears in my eyes. Her bhava through out the concert has been excellent. Brilliant support from L. Ramakrishnan, Praveen and Anirudh. Short,extremely enjoyable Tani. Begada and Durga were superb. Will cherish this concert for a long time to come!

"Swaminatha... Naattai".... Brilliant
I loved the Swaminatha Paripalaya the most! So beautifully done. Also, it's great how the vocalist has taken charge of the Tanpura, rarely seen nowadays. Amazing accompanists as well! Great job bringing out such talents, First Edition Arts Channel!

This takes me to the HO Bandra Canteen-cum-Concert hall as far back as 1990s to the live concert s of the great Bhimsen Joshi, U Sreenivasan.. Nostalgia Nostalgia!!! I still remember U Srinivasan's comment when described the Canteen Hall after finishing his concert there that the sound system there was equal to or better than the Great Albert Hall of London! along with this comment of U Sreenivasan I still cherish the fragrance of Potato Vada, Poorimasala, etc! A great feeling indeed. Some of my colleagues will be feeling the same way. For me IOC was, is and will remain as my guide n bread winner. A N Madhavan ex Commercial Dept, S&D, Aviation, Direct Sales HO!!!
You are a bunch of cool guys! But combine it with old world values. Each one of you is a role model for the new generation.

Wonderful concert. Great video, audio and setting. The scripting of the "lost in transit" segment at the beginning was somewhat cheesy, with its forced references to the sponsor (Indianoil), but I enjoyed the "cameo appearance" by Vignesh Ishwar walking past the petrol station.
Very melodious and soulful singing by Brinda. Superb performance by accompanying artists👏

Well done guys. So sweet to listen to the concert. Well chosen numbers. Cool guys. Can afford to be little more relaxed. Violin and Kanjira could have exchanged their sitting arrangements to avoid the bow poking at the Kanjira player. Best wishes
