Accompanists: R.K. Sriram Kumar - Violin

I came in late and he was singing bEgaDa when I came in. Here is the song list.

1.innum parAmukamEnu – bEgaDa – rUpakam. Swara kalpana – I walked in at this time.

2.marakata maNi varNa – varALi – Adi – tyagarAja – ragam, neraval and swaram at “dharaNi tanayakunna prEma rasamu”

3.soundara rAjam ASrayE – brundAvana sAranga – triSra Eka – dIkshitar

4.durusugA krupajUci – sAvEri – Adi – SyAma Sastri – rAgam, neraval and swaram at “parama pAvani krupAvani vinuta padasarOja praNatArti haru rANi”. In particular I likes how RKS playe swaraksharam at parama (pa-ri-ma) during a few neraval returns

5.EdayA gati – calanATa- Adi – kOTIswarayyar

6.cErarAvadEmirA - rItigowLa – Adi – brief rAgam and violin retrun

7.RTP – kAmbhOji – triSrajAti jhampa tALam – miSra gati – Eduppu – 2 aksharas from samam. Pardon my language barrier, but this is what I could make out as the pallavi sahityam. Corrections welcome
“kanjapadam tanja yenakkanjal yEdu
Nenjen adu SencDai pancanada”
After trikAlam, he sang swara kalpana in the second speed at the beginning of the pallavi as he sang it in the mel kalam.
Then he shifted talam to triSra jAti tripuTa tALam triSra gati and sang swara kalpana in the following ragas – hindOLam, hamIr kalyANi and kApI. He then cam eback to the kAmbhOji to the original talam, naDai and kAlai to finish the pallavi. Tani was in the original variation of the tALa.

8.inta celuvagE – AbhEri – Adi – purandara dAsa

9.tiruvAzha tiruvAzhi – rAgamAlika with kuranji, janghUTi (?), manirangu and nAda nAma kriya- triSra gati Adi – composer?

10.what seemed like a folk song – must have been a kAvaDi cindu

11.jAnaki nAtha sahAya – pilu –tulasidas

I had to leave at this point.

Ksrimech or others - can you post the lyrics of this song. He did sing this in bangalore and I would like to have it. Is there any recording available of Vijay Siva that has this song ?
