This year too,
‘MDR Day’ was organised by Krishnamurthi under the banner of Kedaram, at
Tripunithura in Kerala. Chief guest, Palghat T.R.
Rajamani, spoke about the Brahma layam innate in M.D. Ramanathan’s music.
A ‘Rasikas Forum’ on MDR’s music was moderated by musicians P. Subramaniam and
Sreevalsan J. Menon.
The first copy of
Varadadaasyam—a book containing 20 compositions of M.D. Ramanathan —notated by Tripunithura-based
musician Santhala Raju, was presented to veteran vidwan P.R. Kumara Kerala
Varma. The evening concert featured the Mysore Brothers
(violin) with K.V. Prasad (mridangam).
