This week's show looks at Raga Bihag and has instrumental pieces in both the Khayal style and the Dhrupad style.  

Ravi Shank-hour - Raga Bihag

Alaipayuthey Kanna ~ Violin Maestro Dr. Kunnakudi Vaidhyanathan

"The carnatification", a carnatic musical presentation on a electric guitar is what makes the album entirely different from the others in the market. The  carnatification is nothing but CARNATIC MODIFICATION . The album is filled with pure essence of carnatic music of highest order, comprising of high standard and popular krithis by the greats such as muthuswamy dikshidar, thyarajar, periyaswamy thooran , patnam Subramaniayam Iyer, madurai mani Iyer and purandaradasar. And as a highlight have my first composition too, a peppy ragamalika number. 
               
                   THE UNIQUENESS 

               The album is distinctly unique for the style of playing with double octaves , harmonies, and artificial harmonies and highly grooved swara sections which are completely new to the audience of carnatic. . I LL assure it to be a youth favorite because of the electric guitar factor and the recording quality and the brand names in the album.

              BIG SHOTS IN THE ALBUM

            THE CARNATIFICATION  has some real big names who are currently at the peak in the carnatic feild. I have been accompanied by my dad and percussion maestro Prapancham Ravindran on the mridangam , kanjira maestro B.S.Purushottam and hugely reputed DR.S. Karthick on the Ghatam. The 3 rhythm heroes have provided some brilliant grooves with the electric guitar , thus making it sound epic.

An adaptation of the 12th century English folk song "Scarborough Fair" (made famous by Simon & Garfunkel) in a Carnatic Ragam Thaanam Pallavi format. The raga is Kharaharapirya (or the Dorian mode in the original song) 

Piano: Anil Srinivasan (https://soundcloud.com/anil-srinivasan-1) (except some background bits when the violin is playing)
Violin: Krish Ashok

There's a personal history to this particular song. In 1989, Anil and me were invited by Doordarshan in Chennai as part of a kids program named "Wonder Balloons" to play some "fusion music". He walked up to me about a day before the recording and asked me if I knew the song Scarborough Fair. I said I had no idea. He asked me if I could play Karaharapriya. I said yes. So he said - just play anything in Karaharapriya and when I play the song, just follow along. And that's what we did in 1989. 

Fast forward to 2016, I met Anil again after many years and we briefly jammed and relived that 1989 experience. But our crazy work schedules never really synced to the point where we actually sat together to do a proper recording. He did one rough version on his end and I did one take on the violin several months ago. 

And I decided to simply put both these rough takes together, add some extra piano where I felt it was needed (you can clearly tell the difference!) splice and edit a bit and just burden y'all with it.

Mahaganapathim - Fusion Cover

EDIT: (11/11/2017) The reception towards this piece had motivated me to start the Beauty of Ragas series.  I have re-recorded and remastered the original track as I was never happy with the quality of the flute recording. I hope you all like it as well now.. :)

A sequel to my previous composition for my blog posting on the raga Nalinakanthi : http://aboutindianmusic.com/2012/03/raga-nalinakanthi-part-2/ 

I hope unlike the usual way in which sequels suck, this is better than the previous. 

Do use headphones please :-)

FYI: With this project I try to create music that is different to what you hear on the radio. While I believe that it can make us happy to listen to uptempo, stimulating and entertaining pop music throughout the day,  I also believe that we all can benefit from a slow and  peaceful instrumental from time to time. With this project, I want to create a place where you can come to, when you feel the need to.

Kurai Ondrum Illai

Alaipayuthe kanna

Trained in carnatic vocal and carnatic violin primarily. Prefers to play violin since I believe emotions can be conveyed much deeply with it!. Exposed to some amount of Bollywood during my undergraduate days at IIT Madras. Enjoy playing keys and making some raw covers once in a while..Mainly interested in semi-classical, melody, carnatic music theory with some inclination towards bollywood and moderately heavy fusion.
