Sound quality: fairly good (cuts out briefly in track #5)

Recording date: unknown

Accompanists are not listed, although I believe the first five tracks have Sudha Raghunathan and A. Kanyakumari (mridangam remains unknown).

The final track is taken from a different recital (making for an odd program) and apparently has different accompanists. The sound is not quite as good either.

To purchasing information for this disc.
