I thought we could have a discussion of this composer-giant. (to spark things in this forum, hey!)

Has he rendered any of his compositions? Can anyone list his compositions?

Cheers

I am sure that Sivan sang his own compositions, especially when he sang for RDA. I would love to hear him render his own compositions. Here is Sivan singing Tyagaraja's rA rA sIthAramaNI...

How many know that papanasam sivan is a principle disciple of Nilakanta Sivan and he popularised many of unknown compositions of Nilakanta Sivan.

How many even know Nilakanta Sivan? He was almost co-eval with Thyagaraja and his compositions mostly in Tamil were sung mostly by ladies at home atmoshphere. They are almost lost unless captured and propagated before the old generation dies out!

I agee with you CML. Let us therefore try to compile whatever possible compositions of Nilakantan Sivan and whoever might have rendered it.

One source is Karamanai at Trivandrum Kerala where they have started an annual Nilakanta Sivan Day celebration. I do not know whether they compile and publish the renderings. Some locals can help!

Happy New Year to all you.

Nagasundaram : You have done a splendid job of compiling the kritis of Nilakanta Sivan. Please accept my compliments for this good exercise. May I also request you to tell us some publication which would contain these kritis so that we can understand the sahitya.

kaumaaram: For the compositions of nIlakaNTha Shivan, Smt. PL Saraswathy Ram (I believe she is the great-grand daughter of the composer) has published and audio documented his compositions. I could give you the name of the few books I remember, the rest for Lakshman Sir who is the authority on lyrics.

While on NS, I wanted to venture that there might have been a chance he and svAti tirunAL may have met or heard each other's compositions. The tune to the latter's composition in mukhAri, "bhavati viShvAsO mE," is somewhat similar to "enRaikku Shiva krupai arumO..." of the former's.

pApanASham Shivan's compositions are published by his older daughter, Smt. Rukmini Ramani, entitled kIrtana mAlai as well as separate volumes on ShrIrAmacaritam gItam, kAraikkAl ammaiyyAr caritram and varNams(I believe audio documentation as well as of late). Smt. Ramani is also an accomplished composer as well as her sister Smt. nIlA rAmamUrti (composer of the popular rAmAyaNa tAlATTu, "mAsil ayOddiyil").

Someone pl. provide the gist? thanks

The article starts with where Sivan was born in pOlagam in erstwhile Thanjavur district; he lost his father when he was 8, moved with his older brother and mother to tiruvanantapuram, went to school there learning Sanskrit, music, religion etc., then returned to Thanjavur district, lived in a few places such as pazhamArnEri, and PApanAsam (which is where he got his name associated with him). He was called Sivan when he came out of a temple after singing on Lord Siva with vibhUti smeared all over him. The rest of the article covers his move to Madras and his tutoring S. Rajam and his sister (children of one Sundarram Iyer, a lawyer) and it was Sundaram Iyer who got him into the movies where he started writing lyrics and acted in very many movies until he decided to quit acting and concentrate on writing lyrics only. He moved to Kalakshetra later. His bhajans in Mylapore got a coverage. The SK and Padma Bhushan awards in 1972 were mentioned and finally his departure in 1973. No mention about his daughters in that article.

IIRC, in a VCD released by Papanasam Ashok Ramani, he/narrator states that Papanasam Sivan was called 'Sivan' after his guru Nilakanta Sivan.

S. Balachander's brother and sister. The family was also very active on stage.

>>IIRC, in a VCD released by Papanasam Ashok Ramani, he/narrator states that Papanasam Sivan was called 'Sivan' after his guru Nilakanta Sivan.<<

It is true that Papanasam Sivan was influenced by Nilakanta Sivan(1839-1900) at a young age. When PS moved to tiruvanantapuram (at age 8) in 1898, Nilakanta Sivan was a very pious devotee and a wellknown composer living there. However, I am not sure whether NS can be called the guru of PS. One can say PS was influenced by NS at a not-so-impressionable age. NS died in 1900. So PS (as a child) was influenced by NS for a mere 2 years. Those days it was customary to call pious "godmen" as Sivan. Some examples: Nilakanta Sivan, Ramaswamy Sivan, Vaidyanatha Sivan....

The first movie for which PS served as a music director was for V. Shantaram's "Sita Kalyanam" shot in Calcutta with S. Rajam as rAma and his sister S. Jayalakshmi as sItA, according to the article in ArAmtiNai ezine. It is strange that the article had no by-line.

Just a few points from that tamil article.

1) PS was scholarly in Tamil, Sanskrit and Malayalam.

2) The article refers to Nilakanta Sivan as Nilakanta Dasar.

3) PS's real name was Ramayya. He was later called Ramayya Sivan and then Papanasam Sivan.

4) He looked like a saivaite saint when he came out of a temple after singing Thayumanavar songs. From that day he was called Ramayya Sivan.

Wow! That is quite an exhaustive site. Looks very promising.

mohan

not much info abt PS, i do not see his comp list etc.

It seems to be a site for Papanasam Ashok Ramani. There is only one page on Papanasam Sivan. But there seems to be links for online courses, a mailing list subscription. Like I said it is "'promising"
