Finding Sangeetham.com and serendipity

I have loved Sangeetham.com and continue to miss it on the web, inspite of the fact that there are so many carnatic music websites. There were features to look forward to - several scholarly articles, lively and intelligent discussion forums, rAga explanations, bAni appreciation, lyrics and meaning for the trimUrti's kritis, season analyses and its lighter moments..for those who remember.

But happily, I realise that I can go back the Internet's archives to savour Sangeetham all over again. Very coincidentally, as I think of DK Pattamal's music, I come across this article by a very articulate Sriram V in conversation with the musician during the Sangeetham.com days. Overwhelmed.
