It was resolved to conduct the Madras celebrations in co-operation with the Music Academy, Madras. Accordingly the Music Academy, Madras decided to organise their 41st Annual Conference as a Tyagaraja Bi-centenary Conference, in which Tyagaraja and his compositions would figure in the Experts’ Committee Sessions as well as in the concerts. Special efforts were made by the Music Academy, Madras to achieve this objective. The papers, discussions and demonstra­ tions of the Experts’ Committee were all devoted to Saint Tyagaraja, his genius and compositions, and in all the concerts Tyagaraja’s songs were exclusively rendered, thereby providing an index to the Tyagaraja repertoire of the musicians. An exhibition of photographs relating to Tyagaraja’s life and work prepared by the Central Sangeet Natak Akademi, as also of publications and manuscripts containing the compositions of the Saint and accounts of his life and expositions of his art, collected from several individuals and institutions, was also organised. As part of the Festival, two Harikathas were performed on the life of the Saint-composer and the dramatic poem of the Composer Nauka Caritram was also produced as a dance-drama.

    Navarathri Mandapam CHAPTER 4 Musical Aspect of Maharaja’s Compositions 4.1. Introduction “Music begins where the possibilities of language end.” - Jean Sibelius Music is just not confined only to notes and its rendition, it is a unit of melody, its combinations and beautiful body movements. Therefore it is called Samageetam (g“rV_²) and Sharangdeva has given an apt definition to the term - JrV§ dmÚ§ VWm Z¥Ë`§, Ì`§ g“rV_wÀ`Vo& Maharaja’s compositions are models of all the three faculties of music. They are sung, played on various instruments and some compositions are exclusively composed for dance performances. To understand the nuance and technical aspects of music, it is very necessary to look back at the history of both the streams of Indian Music which are prevalent. As discussed in the earlier chapters, North Indian Music, popularly known as the Hindusthani Music had a lot of transitions since the Vedic era to the Mughal or the pre- indehendence era. After the decline of the Mughal Empire, the patronage of music continued in smaller princely kingdoms like Gwalior, Jaipur, Patiala giving rise to diversity of styles that is today known as Gharanas. Meanwhile the Bhakti and Sufi traditions -------------------------------- ( 100 ) ---------------------------------- continued to develop and interact with the different schools of music. Gharana system had a peculiar tradition of one-to-one teaching which was imparted through the Guru-Shishya tradition. To a large extent, it was limited to the palace and dance halls. It was shunned by the intellectuals, avoided by the educated middle class, and in general looked down upon as a frivolous practise.

Saint Tallapaka Annamacharya (1408 - 1503) Annamayya is widely regarded as the Padakavita pitaamaha (grand old man of song writing) of the Telugu language who strongly influenced the structure of Carnatic music compositions that we hear today. Annamacharya considered his compositions as floral offerings to the Lord of the seven hills, Sree Venkateswara. Annamacharya composed close to 36,000 sankeertanas (songs) out of which only 12,000 are available today. Based on the Vishishtadvaita school of thought, his songs are classified into Aadhyaatma (spiritual) and Sringaara (romantic) genres. Many of his compositions are in Telugu language. Every year in the month of September/October, NEOTA conducts the Annamacharya Aradhana, to celebrate the life and works of Saint Annamacharya of Tallapaka, as a humble tribute to the supreme devotion of the poetic genius that continues to captivate us to this day! !1 of !5 Annamacharya Sankeerthanalu by Cleveland Annamacharya Group " (taught by Gurus Sri Srivishnu Pasumarthy & " Sri Sreekrishna Pasumarthy)" Bhakti Koladhi Vaade Rāgam: malayamarutham Tālam: Adi Anthayuneeve Rāgam: Anandabhairav Tālam: Adi Iddarigunambulive Rāgam: Kapi Tālam: Adi Kantimineedide Rāgam:
