Vandeham Varadadasam, a celebration of the music of Carnatic music legend M.D. Ramanathan (MDR), was organised recently by his son Balaji Ramanathan at Raga Sudha hall in Chennai. While Sangita Kalanidhi T.V. Gopalakrishnan spoke about the emotional connect, the “Sound, music and meaning in MDR’s art” were “deconstructed” by the erudite musician Sriram Parasuram. It was followed by an impressive concert by Ramakrishnan Murthy, who was ably accompanied by Mysore Srikanth (violin) J. Vaidyanathan (mridangam) and K.V. Gopalakrishnan (khanjira).
