" The concert of Smt. Shriram at Hamsadhwani Sabha had many endearing qualities - adherence to Sruthi, mastery of Layam, and excellent musical tutelage.  Shanthi formed a garland of  Swaras for the  Krithi "Seraravathe" while Kamala Kiran Vinjamuri was a treat on the violin.  In the song "Akshaya Linga Vibho'', Shanthi decked Lord Shiva in grandiose finery with her deft handling of the raga Shankarabharanam.  Shriram Brahmanandam on the mridangam, true to the meaning of his name provided immense delight to the audience with his versatile playing.
