You said " I take up a rare song in a common raga or a rare raga in almost every concert!" That is exactly what makes your concerts a wonderful learning experience apart from giving a lot of ecstatic joy. From my view, whenever someone attends your concert, by the end of the concert, they definitely will know something they never knew before apart from the immense satisfaction of listening to pleasing music.
For us, who are not able to make it to Chennai during the season, knowing the song lists gives a lot of joy. Just love the way you plan your concerts :)
All the very best for the rest of the concerts
