KMan is not from this planet. Not sure why he looks like he is!. And when he plays the mridangam, thats another story too! Never seen him live but dying to!Blessed!

I have attended concerts in Chennai & Bangaore where Shree Sunderkumar was accompanying Kanjra artist for various Vidvans but this California concert he is exceptionally outstanding in his Thani Avarthanam. What a display of performance. Super Super Super Sunder Kumar

I remember the legendery Sri Madurai Mani Iyer'concert I happened to attend in Mylapore when I was young. The Kriti Ma janaki in Kambodi with his originality of Swarangal was the highlight in those days.
