Climate begins to affect artistes


Expect surprise changes in concert schedules this season.

The excessive rain the past fortnight and the chill that will set in in December does affect artistes and their instruments.

But vocalists can do little when the voice is affected or a nasty cold or recurring infection spoils his/her plans for the season.

Already, a few artistes have said ' sorry ' to recover from minor illnesses and be fit for the busy season ahead.

One sabha has a back-up list drawn up.

On Monday, Nov.30 evening, at Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, Mylapore the Malladi Brothers decided to stay away since one of them was unwell - Sriram Parasuram, who himself has been unwell came in to play the violin - he too could not be coaxed to sing. ( photo is of Sriram's Monday concert)
