Acknowledgement
A concert is a public presentation of music, dance, or other entertainment forms for an audience. Carnatic music concerts have progressed over time, featuring diverse musical forms and performances. Historically, a solitary Raga or Pallavi was executed for extended durations in royal residences and Zamindari estates. By the late 19th century, a novel format emerged, featuring performances exceeding 5 hours, commencing with one or two introductory pieces followed by an intricate Ragam-Tanam-Pallavi. Classical art forms attained popularity among the populace, resulting in the formation of structured organisations, such as sabhas. At the onset of the 20th century, the audience for Carnatic music was lesser than that of other performances such as Kalakshepa, Bhajana, or folk theatre. Maestros such as Ariyakkudi Ramanuja Iyyengar established a structure and framework for concerts, incorporating multiple pieces within a single performance, interspersed with both light and heavy works, culminating in a section featuring lighter items with a melodic bent. Concerts, previously enduring 4 to 5 hours, have diminished in duration due to the introduction of the phonograph, the emergence of radio, and the proliferation of cinema.
