[cvrsarma2011]

Great Performance ... she is my favorite singer .... thanks for posting ..

[shrirangbhavecr]

@ horshodg....please tell me wat is meant by Abhashwaram?....personally i liked this rendition par excellence.....i am a singer myself and have sung this song in live concerts as per the Pt.Ajit KAdkade Version......Arunaji has a different rendiition style and her forte.....its bliss to listen the song in a very different style....though her voice sounds exerted due to prolonged singing may be......

[doggiepal1]

amam there s an abhaswaram

[324sss]

@ mgnanamani: at 2.57, it is not exactly abaswaram, but i think her "perattal" or voice modulation slipped a little bit making it sound a little bit off, but I could be wrong.

[rarunadri]

Many of my Marathi friends heard this and did not feel that the diction was terrible. even if it was- so what? It sounds beautiful and can any one tell me how many Marathi singers sing in Tamill, Kannada or Telugu. She sings in all these languages and also in Sanskrit. Thanks to Carnatic musicians we get to hear different styles of singing and appreciate our diverse culture

[Uday2310]

@rarunadri

[SJisBack]

I have uploaded original singer's version with the translation.

[64blueravi]

really a WONDER by Smt Aruna Sairam

[2121947]

Arunasairam is really a great singer in carnatical music or abhang,pleases all age group audience

[sirensongsindia]

Aruna is the BEST. I love the way women Carnatic singers have lower voices than other styles.

[swamy10101010]

can somebody write the song in english and provide the meaning.

thanks in advance,

sai lakshmi

[SJisBack]

@swamy10101010 I have uploaded original singer's version with the translation.

[swamy10101010]

Thank you SJ for your help. I enjoyed the meaning of it. It makes a lot of sense when I sing for LORD KRISHNA.

God Bless

[pala0028]

Aruna is absolutely amazing! She is the first woman Carnatic singer that lets her body free when she sings! Usually performances are very sullen, but she is letting loose. Not all Carnatic music has to be portrayed as sullen and dower for it to be considered holy or pensive. Who decided that anyway, and why do Carnatic goers believe it? Yay, Aruna!

[guitarguy1381]

I think also, there is a lot of male chauvinism. Males singers are seemingly given a pass for all kinds of facial contortions and actions that are considered unbecoming for women. As if its somehow inferior for women to enjoy the music they are immersed in.

[bethells86]

Agreed, I always thought such nice singing needs to be appreciated. In the north if someone say wah or kya baat hae it really inspires the performer. Why is this sort of appreciation lacking in Carnatic music.?

[vittalvinod]

These songs are sung by Marathi bhajan singers. U have to listen to that.... These are really a photostat of those styles.

[saranyan1]

yes you are right! Abhangs were first sung by Saint Tukaram in Marati in praise of Lord Vittala!

[sam7748]

Wow! I don't even understand a word. Thanks for posting it...

[horshodg]

is bhImpalAs called as bhImpalAsI in carnatic?

if yes then thats wat this song is based on...

[raghamadhu]

can anyone please tell me the exact ragaa of this song in carnatic..

[gbapu]

Great performance. Can any one post the lyrics and meaning (In English pls) of this song. Thx Mrs Sairam.

[9941150163]

good work......

[ZodiacSystem]

Cool !!!!!

Thanks for the video !!!!!

[ReyLoo]

how are those people just sitting there so restrained...this makes me want to get up and dance and move.

[ullasrajchellappan1]

Wow!!!!!There are no words to describe the joy when I listen to this song.

[mgnanamani]

Very good song. I use to listen it at least once in a day. But is it an abhashwaram at hr2.57????

[AthmanAKS]

@mgnanamani

u r right may be it is abhaswaram....but think this song is a thukkada sung after 2.5 hours in the concert...after magnificient alapana...singer would definetely be tired.....so it shd be fine :-)

Buy Charsur CD of Aruna Amma (2005 Live Concert at Parthasarathy Swami Sabha). In that she had sund brindavani (same thukkada after 2.5 hrs only), but the brigas she gave was amazing with full energy...I went for the concert and bought the CD as well....

[9941150163]

really its divine vibration...

[vijayaarumugam]

Mesmerising

[rajasji]

excellent, can not explaine in words. If I listen this song a DIVINE FEELING in my heart. THANK YOU SO MUCH to Shreemathi Aruna

Sairam.

[knataka]

The talented artist has demonstrated the versatility of Karnataka Classical music founded by Sri Purandara Daasa to incorporate other forms of music. Thanks for posting.

[sj6288]

Amazing! Marathi abhang sung in Carnataki style by Aruna Sairam. she is amazing.

is this composition by Sant Tukaram or Bhanudas?

[sasidharakula]

Bhanudasa --- pavali prema bhakti..

[sj6288]

Thanx. Bhanudas was grandfather of poet saint Sant Eknath.

[sury39]

nice clip thks ;if you can read tamil read thukaram biography by balakumaran so moving

during sarabhoji raja perhaps these came down to south; nice the sindians sing all languages; one day may come when you can hear oothhukadu and tyagaraja swatitirunal in sitar

sury paris

[chandru80in]

Does anyone have the lyrics to this Abhang?

[hugeindian]

great work. Thanks for posting v. good clippings. Abhangs are mostly in Marati and Sant Tukkaram has done 40 crores of them and the lord came down in his chariot and took the Sant in the same body. One of the fe who went to Swami with the human body beacause of his abhungs and Sant refused go with the lord saying that he can not do more. We miss many as these abhangs and the current singers are rare. They are divine bliss.

[analyticalchica]

is it really 40 crores? is there good record of them? Would love to buy them...

[latha02]

why so much interruption in all the clippings,can't able to enjoy.

latha

[ssj1965]

Whats your connection speed?

[chandru80in]

Supreme! Like the tempo of the song and ofcourse, Mrs. Sairam does an excellent job of it.

[ssj1965]

In Tamilnadu Sri.Tukharam Ganapati sings Abhangs in Varkari sampradaya. He has dedicated himself to spread the Namasankirtan movement. His satsangs are very good as he also explains the meanings.

[dharen2000]

i think it is marathi

[ssj1965]

Abhangs are in Marathi language.

Abhangs were popularised by Sant Tukaram, Namdev, Gynashwer, among others. Abhangs are sung in the praise of Lord Panduranga Vithal and Rukmabhai, presiding deities of Pandharpur.

[janetraju]

what language is this abhang being sung in?

[ssj1965]

It is a musical form in Marathi and most frequently sung in Maharashtra. Abhangs have since crossed the national borders and sung in Carnatic music concerts as well.

The word Abhang represents "that which cannot be destroyed". It is synonymous to Namasankeerthanam in South India. Instruments like Pakawaj, Tabla, Tanpura and Taal play the supporting role for an Abhang-singer.

[greeklover007]

Amazing voice and music, could anyone tell me about the composer ?

[ssj1965]

There are different styles of Abhangs. The most popular one is Varkari Sampradaya. Sant Tukaram and Sant Namdev's Abhang Gatha and Abhang Granth are some of the important texts of Varkari Sampradaya. The presiding deity is Panduraga Vithal.

Similarly, Sant Ramadas had composed Abhangs in South India. He was instrumental in spreading this to Tanjavur as Bhajan Padhathi Sampradaya. It is sung mostly in South India.

[free3mano]

No words to say. Great Aruna sairam.

[parrotmania]

to mr kishorepalle, i was thinking thatif u would hav the notes for this song as you seem to know it. hope u do.thank u.

[kishorepalle]

Splendid performance... FYI, this is ragam Abheri with a touch of Gowri Manohari in there and then going back to Abheri through Akaaram and then pallavi.

[brachem]
