Keerthi, I join you in inviting rasika-s to listen today's Radio Program of Smt Rama Ravi.

Rightly said, "who still possess a radio"!

A true carnatic music Rasika must own a radio with AM band. Chennai A (Medium Wave frequency) broadcasts several good concerts and is the lone saviour of Veena Music.

Rightly said Mr.Sivaramakrishnan,

I always try to listen to concerts on radio, especially Chennai "A" station which regularly keeps broadcasting concerts of 1 hr duration. National programme on saturday & sunday nights at 9.30 is also must on my schedule to catch up with some very good classical music.

Last sunday morning there was a broadcast of an old recording of Sri. DKJ's Papanasam Sivan's krithis.

i do have a radio with AM in it

one of my cherished possessions.

and I do listen to the concerts on Madras A and FM Gold everyday

I believe it is the Annamacharya Special concert of hers, that was recorded some months ago, that is going to broadcast...

As I was expecting a typical kutcheri fare from Smt Rama Ravi with varnam, kritis of trinity, a couple of padams and a javali, I must admit I was disappointed to some extent!!

But programme was excellent with songs in various hues. The Bahudari piece (tuned by Nedunuri?) deserves to be absorbed in the routine concert circuit by our musicians. Saveri aalaapana was grand.

Was it that Nandita (her daughter) couldn't accompany due to AIR's strictures of gradation?

Sivaramakrishnan,

I don't know why, but usually Smt Rama isn't accompanied by her daughter in radio concerts. Being shorter than most live performances, it's easier to do without vocal support in them.

I regularly listen to the AM concerts.It serves dual purpose listening and time monitoring.The other advantage is I can sing along.

Did any one listen to yesterday's morning concert of Puducode Krishnamurthy Bhagavathar,accompanied by MSG & TKM ? (1984 recording).A wonderful concert.

Sivaramakrishnan · Post by **Sivaramakrishnan** » 31 Jan 2010, 12:19

Yes, it was Puducode K Krishnamurthy, former Principal of the Swati Tirunal College of music, Trivandrum and professor of Music at Kalakshetra, Chennai

Certainly not Pudukottai Krishnamurthy Bhagavatar, the Bhajanasampradaya legend.

Sivaramakrishnan · Post by **Sivaramakrishnan** » 01 Feb 2010, 22:30

The Bhajanasampradaya legend is 'Pudukottai Gopalakrishna Bhagavatar', and not 'Pudukottai Krishnamurthy Bhagavatar' as I had mentioned in my post yesterday.

GBL,
AIR concerts may have copyright restrictions on those that are commercially released by them. I am aware AIR has commercially released many of the AIR concerts of yesteryear musicians. If a concert has been aired for public listening, I doubt if they can restrict sharing them. However, I am not sure how to make out if a concert has been commercially relased by them or not
