Posted on: 31/Jul/2013 12:09:22 PM
Pallavi Darbar, a unique festival dedicated to the art of ragam-tanam-pallavi singing will be conducted by Carnatica at the Mylapore Fine Arts Club between 7th August and 9th August. The event, in its third year, organised by Carnatica in association with Sri Parthasarathy Swami Sabha, is conducted with an intention to familiarize Carnatic music fans with the art of pallavi singing. It also aims to highlight the challenges posed to the artiste apart from simply encouraging pallavi singing.
This being the centenary year of Dr. Sripada Pinakapani, the festival is dedicated to the musician who passed away in early 2013. The event will features artistes such as Trichy J. Venkataraman, Chitravina N. Narasimhan, Suguna Purushothaman, Malladi Brothers, Abhishek Raguram, Suguna Varadachari, Saketharaman, T.N.S. Krishna and Akkarai Sisters to name a few.
The last day of the event will host an on-the-spot-pallavi contest �Pallavi Puzzle�, with singer Bharat Sundar moderating the event. Teams consisting of up to three people will be allowed to participate in this event. Entries can be sent in either through email to [email protected] or via registrations at the venue
