A Timely Companion for the Chennai Music Season: iCarnatic’s Concert CalendarThe Chennai Music Season has always been as exhilarating as it is overwhelming. With hundreds of concerts spread across sabhas, temples, and cultural spaces, rasikas have traditionally depended on printed reconers and word-of-mouth to plan their listening. For nearly four decades, S. Kannan’s Season Reconer served as an indispensable guide, becoming almost synonymous with the December season itself. His passing left a palpable void.
Filling this long-felt gap, iCarnatic.org has now come forward with a comprehensive and thoughtfully curated Chennai Music Season Concert Calendar, compiled by noted musician K.N. Shashikiran.
The calendar is available in two formats:
- A digital version, hosted on the iCarnatic website, offering easy access to concert information across sabhas.
- A pocket-sized physical calendar, designed as a handy carry-on guide for rasikas on the move.
What makes this initiative particularly noteworthy is its accessibility. The printed pocket calendar is being distributed free of cost and is available for pick-up at various sabhas during the season. In a time when information is often fragmented across social media posts and messaging groups, this consolidated effort brings back the joy of browsing a single, reliable reference.
For veteran rasikas, this calendar will evoke memories of Kannan’s reconer tucked into handbags and pockets. For younger listeners, it serves as an excellent introduction to navigating the season with intention rather than chance.
