There is a Krithi in the rAgam karpUrabharani, 'thyAgarAjam bhajarE'. Both the Krithi and the rAgam are the creations of my guru Shri P. K. Rajagopala Aiyar of Ambattur, a disciple of Shri Tiger Vardachariyar and a musicologist .

There is only one song in AbhOgi by Mysore Sadashiva Rao. It does not have any reference to Tyagaraja though.
Here are two more songs:
tyAgarAja gurum. rAgA: kEdAra. rUpaka tALA. M.D.Ramanathan
shrImadAdi tyAgarAja guruvaram. rAgA: kalyANi. rUpaka tALA. Mysore Vasudevachar

There must be others but it is a little difficult to trace them easily.

I can type up the lyrics if you are interested.

I believe we have discussed this topic before, perhaps one or two years ago.

Thanks to everyone. Can We have the earlier link merged?

Sreeni - we did discuss it. Beautiful clip - thank you. By the way, is the rAga katanakutUhala, kathanakutUhala, kaThanakutUhala or kadanakutUhala (IIRC, Sri BMK, in his tillAnA uses kadanakutUhala, as in - 'madana kadana kutUhaluDu...')
