The music season in chennai is no longer restricted to Margazhi. There is Bharat Sangeet Utsav which happens in November, Bharathi Vidya Bhavan and Karthik fine arts start in the first week of December. Maybe that is why it is called the Chennai music season now! I attended a few concerts in Bharat sangeet Utsav and one concert of OST at Tatvaloka but I consider them more as a curtain raiser to the main event. After all music season is not only about music .. It is a wholesome experience!
Anyway I am a regular at Parthasarathy Swamy Sabha and they start only mid December.I have listed all the artists I want to listen to and worked out a schedule .. Schedule is really packed for the next 2 weeks, not the lunch!
