the second krithi in mohanakalyANi is a composition of LJ's father lalgudi gopal iyer. abhishek's excellent grasp of laya is on display in this krithi. his laya control brings TNS to mind. listening to the third krithi, a composition of thyagaraja on the deity of lalgudi village in raga madhyamavathi (http://sahityam.net/wiki/Deva_Sri_Tapastheertha). apparently lalgudi brought this obscure krithi of thyagaraja swami to limelight by dusting it off and playing it frequently on the concert stage.

the entire concert is lalgudi themed.
