Unforgettable even if "Sangita Kalanidhi" not awarded

[kvchellappa]

Pasupathi's posts on Somu are really great, but in Tamizh.

Instead of opening a new thread for each of those who was missed, you can go to respective thread in vidwan and vidushi and share the 3 parts that Sachi talks about.

VKV,
All I can offer as a non-techie is to translate nuggets about these greats.

Chellappa,
What Pasupathy has brought to us about Somu in the past few days is priceless. You can join in with the translation.

Rajesh,
I would not have done my homework right, but I do not seem to find any posts at all about Somu in recent times! I did find one thread in Vidwans and Vidushis which is stagnating. No recent posts at all in that!

[Rsachi]

Let us tarry no further. Please open a new thread:
Sangeetha Kalanidhi eventhough unawarded: Madurai S. Somasundaram
Arasi, kindly translate those Tamizh nuggets.
I will post links to some OUSTANDING concerts immediately therafter.

It will be nice if someone shares reminiscences of this maestro with the deep voice.

Ref. to the above post 32.
Great performnce.

The varnam sounds to be in Narayanagowla composed by Veena Kuppier.

This is a different one than his MA - 1965 concert which also has the same varnam as the first item.

Thanks
will attend to it

Sublime, it indeed is!! What a concert! The bow i guess would have been dipped in honey, the night prior to the concert.

T R Mahalingam a.k.a Flute Mali. Ignoring his personal traits that have been mentioned time and again, his contributions to the carnatic flute have been immense and that alone should have been the reason for him being awarded the SK.

In the history of the Sangitha Kalanidhi from 1929 to 2017, please note that only 89 musicians and musicologists have ever got the award.

The musical community as such is way bigger than this.
