Re: Oothukkadu Venkata Kavi (OVK)
One must give full credit to Needamangalam Krishnamurthy Bhagavatar who did his utmost to project the few hundred songs of Venkata Kavi in recent times.Needamangalam Krishnamurthy Bhagavatar's father's sister's husband Srinivasa Sastriyar was a Samasthana Vidwan of Baroda and he studied the manuscripts and the legacy was handed to the Bhagavatar. He used to present special harikathas entitled Sri Krishna Ganam wherein he used several of Venkata Kavi's compositions. He also trained dozens of disciples and presented several concerts exclusively on Venkata Kavi's compositions in prestigious venues such as The Music Academy, Madras. He also published a few books containing these compositions, which in turn have helped leading artistes to learn them and popularize them further today. His wife Rajammal is continuing the good work, making the music world infinitely richer. Several more compositions are yet to get into print and are in the Bhagavatar's notebooks or in loose sheets, some of it in the possession of Chitravina N Ravikiran.
needamangalam krishnamurthy bhagavathar's wife rajammal, is no more.
she attained the louts feet of lord.
she used to take care of rajammal publications(krishna gaanam and raasa padam books published by NKB)

I do not think she has sung. Among current artists, Sanjay has not sung any. Has DKP sung?

Cienu may be able to help, but IIRC, Smt. MSS may have sung at least one of Sri OVK's kRtis (tAyE yaSOdA, perhaps) when she accompanied his mother and Smt. Anandi's dance performance.kvchellappa wrote: ↑20 Mar 2020, 08:43I do not think she has sung. Among current artists, Sanjay has not sung any. Has DKP sung?

Thank you so much !
Yes, MSS sang for the Dance Programme of Anandhi & Radha, and Thaye Yashoda was one of the items !
After Alarippu (Anandhi & Radha), Jatiswaram (Radha) and Varnam (Anandhi & Radha), there was first interval.
After that, the first item was Ethanai Sonnalum by Anandhi.
Next was Thaye Yashoda presented by Radha !

The details are from the Programme Card.
A Review must have appeared in Kalki magazine. Member @Pasupathy may be able to provide us information on this.
Not sure of any recording. Member @cienu may be able to help.

Re: Oothukkadu Venkata Kavi (OVK)
this again brings us to a conclusion that in those times oothukadu kritis considered to fit for dance performances until established concert performers started popularizing it on kutcheri stagePratyaksham Bala wrote: ↑20 Mar 2020, 20:42Thank you so much !
