    Hello Ms. Charulatha,
    My name is Sairam and I am a graduate student abroad. It has just been a week since I decided to find out Raagas for few songs, cine, and your Isai Payanam videos on Youtube was a perfect launch pad for this. Apart from You, being an amazing singer, I find your voice very bold, at the same time very pleasant. Its very surprising for me to see these two things going hand in hand. Hats of to you and your Divine voice!!! It would be great if you can have your own you tube videos describing more Raagas and giving more examples for beginners like me. (I know you have a busy schedule :( ) Yennudaiya Isai payanaththai thudangi vaitha ungaludaiya Isaiyum, Isai payanamum Vaazhga, Valarga Valamudan!!!
    Sairam. G

    I have been watching all your isai payanam dvd's and i have to say more than anyone else you are contributing to popularizing classical music among philistines like me. I am truly learning karnatic music from your dvd's and now i can walk into a concert knowing something about the concert. Thanks a million for your good work.

I have to identify it!!!!

Dear Rasika, The wonderful thing about Ragas in the Indian Classical music system is that they are unique, and each one of them have something that is typically only associated with them, that which is irreplaceable. It is easy to fool an average listener in a little game of "Identify the raga" in a post-dinner Carnatic music party, and chuckle as he identifies a Sri raga as a Madhyamavati or a Pharas as a Mayamalavagowla..but how many of us self-confessed aficionados of this great system really have a fool-proof method of unambiguously identifying, each time, every time, the raga correctly? I doubt very many of us do, and this includes the smug critic or the know-it-all mama-mami duo next door. Lets face it - there are many factors that go into identifying a raga - the musical intelligence of the person who is playing or singing in the specimen recording, the level of sophistication of the music system, the extent of deafness of the listener or the lack of it, peer pressur...

Bhairavi Swarajati - Amba Kamakshi

Image
Creating this recording and the video was a spiritual experience for me. Raga Bhairavi has magical powers and envelopes the soul. This kriti "Amba Kamakshi" was composed on the goddess at Kanchi "Kamakshi" by the great Shyama Sastri. This kriti is a call of the child's soul to the divine mother "Amba". Each and every person can relate to this call to the divine, this I truly believe. I dedicate this video and kriti to Kanchi Kamakshi Ambal, Sri Mahaperiyava and Shyama Sastri. I also recall with fond love my guru Late Smt Savitri Saytamurthy who painstakingly taught me this piece "Amba Kamakshi" and many other precious gems in music.  More on Raga Bhairavi: Raga Bhairavi - SoundCloud Playlist: https://soundcloud.com/charulathamani/sets/raga-bhairavi A Raga's Journey - Bewitching Bhairavi: http://charulathamani.blogspot.in/2012/07/ragas-journey-bewitching-bhairavi.html
