Making music

After a long while, I had the opportunity to perform a full-length synthesizer concert in Sydney. While I have accompanied in concerts, performing solo is a different challenge that requires a lot more planning and practice! This was probably my first 3 hour concert and I was lucky to be accompanied by two of Australia's top Carnatic musicians namely Murali Kumar on violin and Sridhar Chari on mrudangam.

You can hear a short selection of the items from the concert by clicking on Music at http://www.soundclick.com/mohanayyar. I would like to hear your comments after listening. I might be able to get you more tracks if you like what you hear.
