@whenall,

Thanks a lot for posting this the best gem of his composition in mayamalavagowla ragam. want to hear more of such symphony by ilayaraja in such core ragas.I had the cassette of this album, but lost it. Thanks a lot for posting this song.

[arunkavungal]

All mayamalavagowla ragam lovers should definitely listen to this maestro's one of the wonderful compositions. I think he dedicated this track to both thyagaraja and Bach!! It is heavenly!! Felt like thyagaraja singing and Bach arranging the orcheastra to his wonderful composition thulasidala!! Though this could not happen Ilayaraja had the vision and composed this.. when i hear this mayamalavagowla, tears stream down my cheeks!! I cant help it. especially the first charanam..

[Vedapushpa]

It is Mayamalavagowla... interspaced with the corresponding western notes.. I think

It is so simple yet so rich !!!!

AND the meaning words of this by saint Tyagaraja are similarly simple but profound !!

[Vedapushpa]

It is Mayamalavagowla... interspaced with the corresponding western notes.. I think

It is so simple yet so rich !!!!

[Vedapushpa]

It is Mayamalavagowla... interspaced with the corresponding western notes.. I think

[sridhardgl]

God wanted to play music...he created Illayaraja...!!!

[rajkumar0018]

Only person make a laymen sing the song. Pain is visible in all musics of his. It appears his missed his mother most.

[LearnCarnaticMusic]

Tyagaraja's composition and Illayaraja's arrangement - > Learned Shri VS Narasimhan Sir on the Violin. What a combination!

[bsjagadish]

The same tune was used in Rudraveena - for which he got the national award in 1988...."Thalisdalam nu "

[priyanka2001]

amazng music

[saig2007]

this is from Thyagaraja's composition "Thulasidala" (Mayamalavagowla). The appropriate title for this would be "Chamber welcomes Thyagaraja" since Illayaraja adapted Thyagaraja's composition and added some western interludes to it. Does any one know why the "Chamber welcomes Thyagaraja" was used for some other number from the same album ?

[composerananth]

Great music, but not a well produced CD. Track names are jumbled. Cassette and CD has same tracks with different names. This should be Chambers welcome Thyagaraja.

[tanapp]

No, as far as I know, it has not. The CD sleeve has messed up the order and name of track titles. The audio cassette I owned had the correct track titles and order.

Eternal Ilayaraja!

[saraks]

It was a mistake by the label company and "Chamber welcomes Thyagaraja" is the intended title for this track.

[martiannational]

Divine Music. Raja for Life.

btw. I guess the picture is the entrance of the famous Louvre Museum in Paris, where Monalisa is.

[nannakk]

[kramkrishnan]

Truly divine :)

[tarunbalu]

Beyond words....!

What ragam is this based on?

[whenall]

Based on tulasidala, so its Maya maalava gowlai at the core.I am not so very expert in this, but I guess this song along the way also has other Raagas.

[tarunbalu]

Gracias!

[raagu13]

yes ur are right , it has 3 to 4 ragas in this

[reethigowla]

It is Mayamaalava Gowla alone. It is made polyphonic in the western classical way, while the Raagam remains the same. Polyphony requires multiple octaves (of the same raaga) which might have given the feeling that it has multiple raagas.

[venchanter]

That is a fantastic explanation! Do you have any videos of your own? You seem like a very knowledgeable person!!

[LearnCarnaticMusic]

@whenall

Is just Mayamalava gowla all the way

[srinikothandaraman]

thanks for the awesome song

[mndheenathayalan]

tnx a lot man.

be blessed by the divine.

[ANUGATI]

why dosen't tulasi dalamula not mention thyagaraja? i mean why is the title of THIS song study for violin? shouldn't this be "chamber welcomes thyagaraja?"

[tanapp]

Exactly. I believe the names have been moved around. I owned a cassette and then a CD. The titles of the tracks were different in both. I believe the one on the cassette was right.

BTW whenall, thanks for posting these masterpieces.

[saig2007]

... precisely.. and the number under 'Chamber welcomes Thyagaraja' is completely unrelated. BTW,Tulasidala couldnt have done better than this. Mottai is truly inspirational..

[ANUGATI]

actually mottai's job in this piece was done when hedecided to include this in the album. that was inspirational enough - the rest of the job has been take care of by Thyagaraja and MMG!

but yea - mottai is still inspirational.

[whenall]

You people are all right, I have always had this confusion, but then stuck with what was said on the CD. Nevertheless it does not matter much, as Raja(or affectionately mottai :D)dedicates the whole album in honor of Thyagaraja and Bach.

[LearnCarnaticMusic]

@whenall

The song has Shri Tyagaraja's sugnature -

'vara tyAgarAja nutuni'

[silectha]

a big thanks for posting ....a real gem from the maestro....

[whenall]

thank you too..
