Coolji, as rasikas we are extremely thankful to you for sharing this recording, which is so close to your heart. And everytime you play this track, it reminds you of your Dad and can therefore this Keeravani of KVN be considered as a real tribute to your Dad who was so fond of KVN. We also share the same sentiments with you. What a lovely Keeravani. One derives an unique mental peace when one listens to this keeravani of KVN in the company of TNK & Plaghat Raghu. Who has accompanied KVN on the ghatam in this concert ?coolkarni wrote:KVN ‘ s Music is a kind of Music that can mean different things to the same person at different stages in his life.
A few hours before his death My dad took leave of me – as though boarding a train to a new Place – with the query “ Do you think I have done enough good in this world to be privileged to hear KVN and DKJ in the next world ?
And he was a kind of a person who found something wonderful in each and every artist.
I did not realise this then , but after two weeks of commotion (at my hometown) that follows a Passing away I returned to my Flat ,to see the House full of 6 months worth of Medical reports and Bills .I started to shred them to pieces , to get the agony out of my system and then I casually switched on the Tape recorder and played the last track he had recorded for me from AIR.

And the Music that reverberated in my room , put everything in such fine perspective.
KVN’s music preferably with a Second rung Violinist and Palghat Raghu ,has been a balm that has soothed me through many tumultous years.
And the reference to the voice perplexes me on a different count too.
In the lower ranges , I think KVN’s voice was one of the truest of Voices.

Many thanks.
