Lalgudi Jayaraman - Srimathi Brahmanandam - Madras Music Academy, 1969

I am delighted to be posting this wonderful concert of Sri Lalgudi G. Jayaraman and Lagudi Srimathi Brahmanandam at the Music Academy, Madras, in 1969. Sri Jayaraman and Srimathi Brahmanandam were accompanied on the Mridangam by Sri Umayalpuram K. Shivaraman.

Huge thanks to my dear Balu Mama for this fantastic concert!

Sri Jayaraman and Srimathi Brahmanandam was an extremely popular combination in the 1960s and early 1970s. The understanding between brother and sister allowed them to play in such perfect unison. And how the two playing together is more than just adding volume, tone, color, or continuity. It's two different takes on the melody mixed together creating a much richer experience.

I really hope that you enjoy this superb concert! Credit is due to Sri Umayalpuram Shivaraman for his stellar accompaniment!
