and ...generally i prefer to sit in the audience...<br /><br />and for some selected concerts i would like sit on the dias, just because i want to hear what the artistes are hearing...<br /><br />during my early years with TK Murthy sir i made sure i sit right behind him especially whenever Harishankar plays with my guru... just to see Hari anna in close quarters and also to feel the vibration of him...Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17520277768718549712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7335062989381686595.post-30546582754232500992011-01-07T13:37:58.389+05:302011-01-07T13:37:58.389+05:30My Chittappa (Sri NSG) has rarely NOT asked me to ...My Chittappa (Sri NSG) has rarely NOT asked me to sit with him on stage....But when it is Bhaktavatsalam sir who is the Mridangist I insist on sitting with the audience. I love to see him play! His round face becomes soooo cute and childish and his round body starts bouncing up and down in excitement during the tani! I just love the sight!Gokul Iyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09685165999988266391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7335062989381686595.post-33170193441857928782011-01-07T13:36:46.125+05:302011-01-07T13:36:46.125+05:30This comment has been removed by the author.Gokul Iyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09685165999988266391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7335062989381686595.post-15651287337966560242010-12-28T20:42:56.480+05:302010-12-28T20:42:56.480+05:30This comment has been removed by the author.Monesshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06998968868369680956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7335062989381686595.post-25997524648705311142010-12-28T09:59:11.574+05:302010-12-28T09:59:11.574+05:30Depends on the auditorium.

Secondly, if it is a concert where the artists demand high level of amplification, as far away from the speakers as possible. In fact, at a recent kutchaer, I preferred to sit outside the auditorium where the audio levels were at a comfortable level.<br />SrinivasamurthyCheenuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13240657024761522905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7335062989381686595.post-19521223462878508172010-12-27T12:03:27.465+05:302010-12-27T12:03:27.465+05:30@Sandeep - forgot to mention, loved your Guru'...@Sandeep - forgot to mention, loved your Guru's Academy concert - incidentally, I was sitting on stage,a bit behind Varadarajan Sir that dayPriyanka Prakashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02258911423217696684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7335062989381686595.post-16793739376505401812010-12-27T11:59:32.207+05:302010-12-27T11:59:32.207+05:30I prefer sitting on stage - somehow, I always enjo...I prefer sitting on stage - somehow, I always enjoy a concert more when I'm sitting down, cross-legged :) <br /><br />Of course, it's entertaining to listen to the comments of the audience while sitting among them - some of them are pretty hilarious - once at a concert in Bangalore, a 'mama' thought that 'Goula' ragam was 'GouDa' and thought that the artist performing that day had some political connections.. :-DPriyanka Prakashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02258911423217696684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7335062989381686595.post-87224422208154571782010-12-27T10:20:42.001+05:302010-12-27T10:20:42.001+05:30I would prefer to sit among the audience any where...I would prefer to sit among the audience any where - either first row or balcony.. If they allow audience on the dias, then I would like to sit behind the violinist so that I could see the expressions of the singer and the percussionists.Saranyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00640775722702758115noreply@blogger.com
