So, if you are a music student from one of the above mentioned colleges, or preparing to appear for the university exam as a private candidate, you’ll find this useful.

  • Youth to the Fore at the Music Academy C
    SEASON 2018-19 Youth to the fore at the Music Academy C. Ramakrishnan Music he music season at the Madras Music Academy was inaugurated on 15 December 2018. I spent most of my days attending concerts at Tthe Academy and occasionally listened to a few concerts at other venues as well. It was an enriching experience to attend several well laid- out concerts with in-depth raga alapana, rare kritis, complex pallavis, and lilting tailenders. Sangeetha Swaminathan, senior disciple of Sudha Ragunathan, presented a rarely heard Dikshitar kriti, Palayamam Parameswari in Tarangini. Her raga exposition was imaginatively structured to showcase the distinct identity of Tarangini through vakra prayogas, thus avoiding likely ambiguity with Charukesi. Sangeetha sang a breezy Kamalacharane—a composition of GNB in the rare raga Amritabehag, followed by an elaborate Todi before the kriti Kaddanu variki. She then went on to execute the ragam-tanam-pallavi in three ragas—Mohanam, Abheri and Amritavarshini—in three nadais. The raga alapanas were concise with the choicest of phrases and the seamless gliding between the ragas revealed her competence. The pallavi was in chatusra Ata tala employing the Bharat K. Sundar HEMAMALINI S. three nadais—chatusra and tisra nadais for the laghu and khanda nadai for drutam, which was later converted to Roopaka tala. It was a tightrope Baby Sreeram, impressed a packed walk for Sangeetha, which she executed with admirable manodharma and hall with her vidwat. The works of the precision. She concluded the concert with Unmai arinthavar unnai late Puducode Krishnamurthy are not kanipparo, a composition of Subramania Bharati tuned in Sumanesaranjani often heard on the concert platform.
