i met the carnatica bros. in sydney earlier this month. srhi ganesh told me that he and shri ravikairan are a chithravina duo, but they din't seem to play much today. they are very down to earth people. shri ganesh is also a child prodigy and used to be able to identify ragas at the very tender age of 2!!.

Re: Chitravina Ravikiran
I am not fully comprehending what chitravina ravikiran says here . Does he say we can take one couplet of an adhikaram as pallavi , next 2 couplets as anupallavi , next 4 couplets as charanam , then take half a couple from anupallavi and/or charanam and sing as neraval . He himself can elaborate .chitravina ravikiran wrote:The challenge, thus, wasn’t simply about turning something to be read into something to be sung, but composing formal pieces in the pallavi-anupallavi-charanam format that can be performed on the Carnatic concert stage. Ravikiran felt that each group of 10 couplets — an Adhikaram — could be treated like a varnam or a kriti, with ample scope for the improvisatory parts (niraval, kalapanaswaram).
No doubt on his vidwat and musical spark . The proof of the pudding is in the eating - as rasika we have to taste aurally his tunes in a concert.

To add, in the original thread about this, I also questioned the need of doing it in x amount of hours, It's such a valuble project with unmatched, inspired couplets, take your time ... make sure it all adds up.rajeshnat wrote:I am not fully comprehending what chitravina ravikiran says here .

But what do I know, I am no Ravikiran
Also looking forward to seeing / listening to them on his YouTube channel.He's promised to put them on soon.

Here are the erudite views of giants like Sri T.N.Krishnan Sir and Sri Trichy Sankaran Sir, as well as many other leading artists like Smt Sudha Raghunathan, Smt Aruna Sairam, Sri Neyveli Santhanagopalan etc after hearing some of these works of genius..
