Bhairavi  commenced with  the quiet dignity of the methodical and reposeful alap in Raga Yaman. This was followed by jod-alap and jod-jhala  in Vilambit  & Madya laya respectively, which were a variant of the usual Sitar playing. Her touch, strokes, glides and subsequent production of tonal and microtonal effects points to her sound training.  She then moved on to present drut (fast) composition were set to teen taal.  Bhairavi  concluded her recital with  jhala . She was accompanied by her husband &  talented Tabla player  Madhuresh Bhatt  on Tabla.
