In the mid eighties, I had the opportunity to visit Sri V V Sundaram when he was still living in Cleveland and get copies of some concerts; it used to be marathon session over the weekend copying from a reel player to a cassette; he was gracious to allow me to make the copies some fantastic concerts.

The first few concerts of MDR were from his collection.

Music Academy 1968 (Dec 12) concert with T N Krishanan, U K Sivaraman & V Nagarajan

1.  Fabulous concert; the kannada and todi pieces are out of the world; i am yet to hear anyone else render ‘brindavanalola’ yet.
2. We know that ‘enadaro mahanubhavulu’ does not use the ‘pa da ni pa ma’ sequence and MDR in his alapana takes care not to employ this pattern, but TNK does and while it sounds beautiful at that instant, it seems to break the mould that MDR had set up; perhaps he did not remember that MDR had avoided that pattern and played a traditional alapana.
