What a swift end to a young and talented woman! My heart goes out to her family.
I heard her a few years ago and thought she was going to go a long way. So, it was illness which kept her away from singing the last season! Very sad news...

Very sad, indeed. I remember listening to her at the Shanmukhananda Sabha, Mumbai many years back at the Jasuben convention hall. Very very sad. Heartfelt condolences to her near and dear ones.

This is very sad - She was so young.
I am big fan of her recording brought out by Ananya Bangalore. I frequently listen to this CD for the song "ikO namma swAmi jagadantaryAmi" in maNirangu and "binnahake bAyillavayya" in rEvati. Beautifully sung Purandara Dasa songs.

What a great loss , she is so young . I was wondering where she is singing nowadays . Her voice had impeccable sruthi sometimes you feel she has been trained as an HM artist . I remember her vachanas (what was that I heard a gorakhkalyan or something) .I thought she would turn out to be a real top class artist.
Condolences to her family and musicial community.

Few recordings available in youtube. She was intensely classical and a real star in the making.maduraimini wrote:I have not heard Ranjani Hebbar sing., but am sure she was a budding artist.

Soooo sad. Condolences.
I often think: we enjoy music and adore musicians but what about their healthcare costs? Wonder if insurance has helped them.

I remember the concert hosted by Kalki function at BVB, Mylapore. Still remember Delhi Sriram Mridangam and her Dhanyasi sub-main especially the Raga alapana was very soothing. I could talk to her and appreciated her. Very good voice. Really shocked to know this.

I remember seeing a website of hers where her home address was in Luz Church Road or something at mylapore. She made all right moves to be with Carnatic music. A writeup about her commitment in The Hindu.

Re: Ranjani Hebbar (Guruprasad) passes away
This one really hurts .
Snatched in the prime of her life .
I always held an opinion that she gave a breath of freshness of the Hindusthani idiom into singing CM , like no other contemporary singer .When She sang , the distinctions did not matter .
Culled two snippets from a commercial track as a tribute.
Her interpretation of gorakh kalyan is masterly .
Her version of Hari Bhajane says everything about our great music.
Her last concert for Oli series was a masterpiece

Re: Ranjani Hebbar (Guruprasad) passes away
Call it telepathy. Last night Dr Kamala Shankar, a well honoured young Hindustani guitarist (Shankara veena) was aired on 100.1 FM. I had just heard about her. It looked like a repeat of a Sammelan recording. I was treated to a very interesting exposition of a very rakti filled raga. Since I had not heard the raga announcement, I figured it out the hard way-mapping the notes, discerning Andolika like notes, researching the net and arriving at Gorakh Kalyan.
I also read that it is a raga to remember Saint Gorakhnath.
Harishankar, it's very nice of you to remember a young and talented lady who went prematurely...
