Are the 7pm concerts (senior performers) also free?
Yes, all the concerts are open to rasikas. And free. But you need to be early at the venue for the seniors' concerts as the auditorium gets houseful for those concerts.
Sudha Raghunathan, OS Arun, Charulatha Isai Payanam, T.M. Krishna will be full. Go at least 20 minutes before with a book or ipod and get a seat. Other concerts you can go anytime.
There are no concerts by Anooradha Sriram and Sriram Parsuram this year??
I want to meet S. Jayarama Sharma .......could you please arrange a meeting with him?
@ NPK Iyer, sorry, we are no organisers. I think you can meet him before / after his performance at the green room.
I live in New Bombay far away from Chennai........shall I know the next program by S.S. Jayarama Sharma in Chennai so that I can plan accordingly.
Could someone please upload the schedule for December 15th onwards till January month at the sabha for viewers who missed the concerts in November?
