Hi

Shri Kedaranathan Sir has done a wonderful song in Priyadarshini ... Karunai Ganapathiye... ( Hrithkamali by Lalgudi Sir ?? )

Thanks Hariharan for reminding us!
Let us not forget our (late) Ramaraj for his wonderful CM compositions in these rare ragas!

[SrinathK]

Lalgudi Jayaraman IIRC composed an orchestral piece for vAdya vrinda in this rAgA as well as a tillAnA in 2008.

Now here's a tidbit that was new to me. According to his biography, the rAgA itself is Lalgudi Jayaraman's own creation!

Can the moderators shift this topic to the ragas page?

Ok, it has been moved. Please note, I have found another thread for this raga. We are not merging them because when threads develop beyond a point, merging will cause both threads to get totally scrambled.

Request rasikas that before they make a topic about a raga, use the search option within this subforum to check if a related thread already exists.

Here it is, sung by Sooryagayathri :- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ga7UK97fl3I

I rechecked 'An Incurable Romantic'. This rAgA is indeed a creation of Lalgudi Jayaraman.
