Yesterday I came face to face with the fact that ‘Music is divine’. Even now when I think of it, my eyes dispose tears of joy.
Atul & I (courtesy of the generous husband) attended the live concert of the performance of maestros held in the Bahrain Exhibition Centre between 8:30 & 10:30 p.m. yesterday.
The maestros were :
Tabla – Zakir Hussain
Mandolin – U. Srinivas
Vocals – Shankar Mahadevan
Drums & Percussion – Sivamani
These artists are really gifted for they took us with ease to a different world of magic and divinity of music. I was in total awe looking at the mind boggling gimmicks of the dynamic Sivamani, fantastic beats of Zakir Hussain, breathtaking swaras of Shankar Mahadevan and impeccable play of Srinivas. No more words do I find to say more.
Spending BD 40/- for two tickets is expensive for us. But it is really worth paying, for the proceeds are likely to go to charity for lighting up the eyes of the blind and also for providing the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to hear those great masters of their fields.
I came home with a headache (migraine) as usual for I am noise allergic but then I can afford to experience pain along with pleasure sometimes. For it was a rare occasion to feed my body, mind, heart & soul with high-class music.

Music is everywhere! Few knows how to tune them for other's mind, soul and heart. Thank you Padmaja.
Very true, Radha. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Hai Padmaja.
Please note "Favourite music" in your Blog.
"Crackle of a baby, rattle of toys, battle of instruments, throttle of vocals - all I can hear. But I love music of silence more."
A silent lover enjoyed the Music concert. Really it is a Big Success for the Program.
I missed the chance.
Soon I will get the CD of the program. Then I will share my thoughts about this program.
With warm regards,

A silent lover is different from lover of silence.
Thanks for your observation. Please do hear. It is worth buying the CD.
Hai. Actually I meant "Silence Lover" only. Wrongly I used the word "Silent Lover". Thanks for your timely info.
Expecting your new articles..
With regards,
Elanchezhiyan
