Maha Mantra - 12 Hour Kirtan - April 3 2011

Gaura Arati After Sunday Feast- Kadamba Kanana Swami - 6th July 2014 - Amsterdam,Nl

“THAT kirtan

You have good kirtans, you have great kirtans, you have amazing kirtans, you have extraordinary kirtans.. and finally every now and then everyone gets to experience what you would consider as the mammoth of all Kirtans; the incomparable, the unmatchable, the best ever kirtan: THAT kirtan.
…
From the first few seconds you can already get the feeling this is special. Badahari Prabhu so expertly sets the mood with the most extraordinary of melodies, with the instruments & devotees so perfectly assisting him in making this an unmatchable offering to the Lord. The first 30 minutes are sweeter than honey.. and then comes that 33rd minute at the end of which the kirtan moves from the sphere of extraordinary to the sphere of matchless and out of this material world. From this point onwards I can assure you your body will react in various mesmerizing ways to the purity of the singing and the quality of kirtan. My hair stood on end like never before and tears of joy to simply hear the Holy Name, to REALLY hear the Holy Name, invaded my eyes. And like this all the way until the end of this hour and half long Kirtan you can't help but to simply feel privileged to be listening to such glorification in the form of the Maha Mantra. It just gets better and better every minute despite the fact you do not see how it could. And although you do not want this to stop you can't help but accept that the end of the recording is simply perfect.”

Mayapur Kirtan Mela 2013 - Kadamba Kanana Swami

Sri Prahlada was practically born into kirtan and has been singing and playing kirtan across the globe since childhood. He developed his initial fascination with kirtan attending school at ashrams in Australia and India. A natural musical talent, at age 12 he won a recording contract with record giant EMI, releasing two singles and an album entitled “Through the Eyes of a Child”. Sri Prahlada has performed kirtan in traditional, as well as rock and reggae styles before audiences of tens of thousands. Along with the likes of Krishna Das and Jai Uttal, he features in Steven Rosen’s book ‘The Yoga of Kirtan’ which contains in-depth interviews with 20 western kirtan artists.

At age 15 Sri Prahlada took formal spiritual initiation into the Chaitanya Vaisnava tradition from Hridayananda dasa Goswami (Howard J. Resnick, Ph.D.) a world-renowned teacher of both Sanskrit and Indian Studies, who has translated numerous Sanskrit texts and has written many corresponding commentaries, essays, articles, and novels. Sri Prahlada has also been mentored by the renowned bhakti-yoga master Indradyumna Swami, traveling as his assistant, secretary, and lead kirtan singer, from age 15 onwards for about 18 years.

Now based in Sydney Australia, Sri Prahlada often performs with the five-piece band featuring the hypnotic harmonium, rhythmic bass and mridanga drum, melodic guitar, chiming karatals, and vocal harmonies. Sri Prahlada’s heart and soul permeates every moment of every kirtan he sings, transporting his audience to the realm of spiritual consciousness.
