Smt M.S.Subbulakshmi renders a scintillating Ragam-Tanam-Pallavi in Todi raga, set to Khanda Jhampa tala (2 kalai chowkam). The multiple rounds of rava-jati sangati-s and fine brikas are mesmerising, a testimony to her absolute mastery over classicism. This RTP has been sourced from her concert performed at Jaffna, Ceylon, in 1958. The accompanists were:
Sri R.K.Venkatarama Shastri - Violin
Sri V.Nagarajan - Mridangam
Sri Umayalpuram Kodhandarama Aiyar - Ghatam
Smt M.S.Subbulakshmi's great inspiration for such scintillating raga forays were the alapanas of legendary Nadaswaram Vidwan, Sri T.N.Rajaratnam Pillai (1898 - 1956), from whom she also learnt a few kritis. Those who would like to know more about him, please visit: [ Ссылка ]
