A multimedia presentation sketch/outline required

Post by sukumar »

Dear Rasikas,

During the Independence day celebrations at my college, this year I want to give a multimedia presentation on the topic Carnatic Music and Indian Independence Movement".

In this some old patriotic songs, snippets about musicians and relating the two, some composers etc will be presented, in English.

In this connection I request you to give me some pointers on how to do it, and sources where more information can be found.

Thank you all

Also refer to the movie Thyagabhoomi, starring Papanasam Sivan and MS Subbulakshmi. I'd suggest you examine the symbolism and the use of music in the movie.

I am sure there are quite a few krithis on Gandhi like Santhi Nilava Vendum, and Bharatiyar's songs (set to music) which would be appropriate.

Check out if there are any photographs of Semmangudi wearing a Gandhi cap.

Sri Vijay Siva sang a full Independence songs concert, with Smt. Gayatri (of the RaGa sisters) accompanying him on the violin - available on YouTube.

No.
In Thyagabhoomi, S. D. Subbulakshmi acted as Savithri.
