Albums - Ramakrishnan Murthy and Bharat Sundar

Post by mandiram68 »

Happened to listen to two Albums recently; one of Sri. Ramakrishnan Murthy and that of Sri. Bharat Sundar. Both have compositions of Sri. Ashok Madhav in Sanskrit, Tamil , Telugu and Kannada. He is an academician based in Pittsburgh,USA .

Ramakrishnan Murthy has sung 10 compositions in Ragas

Nagaswaravali, Mandari, Janaranjani, Sunadavinodini, Sahana, Malavi, Purvikalyani, Ranjani, Durga and Niroshta.

Something to note in Jayathi Jayathi- Raga: Niroshta is- this krithi’s lyrics do not have Ma and Pa, in line with the arohanam and avarohanam of Niroshta which do not have 'ma' and 'pa' .

In Bharat Sundar's album, a new ragam is featured; Hamsangi -which is a janya of Latangi. In addition to this, the cd has songs in Kantamani, Jayanthasri, Guhamanohari, Valaji, Nattakuranji, Bhairavi, Nalinakanti, Khamas, Anandabhairavi.

More information on this composer’s krithis can be found in the below link
