I understand from Pramila Srinivasan's home page as follows:
"Diskhitar's famous "Gowla"antha krithis (eight) Krithis
al ending in some Gowla) on Goddess Nilothpalamba employs
Mayamalavagowla for one of the Krithis".
What are the rest of seven ragas and the eight krithis? Please enlighten me.

Smt. Sowmya's rendition has been released under the Carnatica label. It is a special live concert recording from the Guruguhanjali series in 2000. Here are more details and purchasing information:Srinidhi: Thanks a ton. What is the label under which Sowmya has released that album?

here MLV sings the kannadagowla krithi. But that Kannadagowla so different from MMI's Orjupu. Is it same raga? MLV's sounded more like Abheri to me

Re: Gowlantha Krithis of Muthuswami Dikshitar
It is the same arohana svaras of Abheri and kannada-gaula that can befuddle, at first.
However Abheri adds the ri (riSabhA) and also a bhASAnga svara, or intermittent foreign note.
karnAtaka devagAndhara is another rAga sharing Abheri’s DNA but has no bhASANga svara.
MLV shows this in “panCA-Sat pithA rupini”

MSS illustrates the Abheri

I believe it is important to realize that All the names/aspects come from the lalitA sahasranAma.
But just like each deity being addressed is “different”, so too are the rAgas chosen and therefore each of the Dikshitar’s kritis.
Of course he uniformly describes each of these “different” aspects of the Devi as "lovers of the arts"..i.e. music and dance.
In the nilOpalAmbA kriti, the unique reference is made to the rAsa lilA dance called "Hallisha lAsya" (I have noted this in post # 556 of the Muthuswamy Dikshitar thread where the gaula rAgas are shown to follow the time of night, in accordance with the opening, full-blooming and then closing of the nilOtpala )
In the Abheri "vinAbheri" she is “vINA-bhEri-vENu-vAdyA-vinOdinI”
In the karnataka devagAndhara “panCASat-pitha” she is “bhAva rAga tAla viSwaSini"
Yet another Sri-rAga mela janya kriti by the Dikshitar of related interest is the Sri-ranjani "Sri dum durgE" where the goddess is described as “dundubhi vAdya bhEda nAda vinOdini mOdini vINA-vAdini”
dundubhi and bheri being names for types of drums/percussion.

Re: Gowlantha Krithis of Muthuswami Dikshitar
thanks for the reply. But is this kannada Gowla same as Orajoopu? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nLBMkYJtdCA
both sounds different to my ears.
