An unusual list.

ranjani33 · Post by **ranjani33** » 23 Oct 2006, 16:05

What is the meaning of unusual in this context?

ranjani33 · Post by **ranjani33** » 23 Oct 2006, 16:18

I think Vocalist means the list of songs is RARE (Unusual....... right)

Vocalist · Post by **Vocalist** » 23 Oct 2006, 22:00

One third of the songs are rare, right. It's unusual, especially when coupled with the fact that a Ganapathi krithi was rendered towards the end.

# 2 is by Periasami Tooran.

ram: Would you know additional pallavi line words for gaNapati (#9)?

arasi · Post by **arasi** » 24 Oct 2006, 06:54

Also, the concert begins and ends with Lalgudi's compositions...

Thanks Lashman ji.

I don't remember the exact wordings for song #9 as they weren't very clear. The pallavi line was also sung only twice in the whole song. I think it went like "ganapathi nayan (?) avan iru kAlai sevithiduvOm, guNam uyarndhidavE viduthalai koodi (?) magizhndhiduvOm". I have put a question mark after all the words I wasn't sure about. I thought it could have been a composition of Subramanya Bharati. The first raga in the ragamalika was nattai. I don't remember the others now.

Oh I recognise this! It is from Subramania Bharathiyar's evergreen "Om Shakthi Om Shakthi Om".

The pallavi line should be:gaNapati rAyan avaniru kAlai piDittiDuvOm, guNam uyarndiDavE viDudalai kUDi magizhndiDuvOm.

From the way I learnt the piece, it contained all the rAgAs of the Pancharatnas in order, except with an additional rAgA of valaji; after varAlI and before shrI.

One of my favourites!!!

3 paras of correction were given by ranjani33. I agree with the first and third. Second one:

Taamarai poovinile suruthiyai thani irundhuraippaL

bhUmaNit-tALinaiyE kaNNILoTrip-puNNiyam eidiDuvOm

Thanks for the corrections.

arasi · Post by **arasi** » 26 Oct 2006, 21:17

A few more:
Ranjani and vocalist have already made some.
I agree with ranjani on pUmaNIt tAL=soft flower like--gem like feet. vocalist has kaNNiloTRi--which is correct.
In the pallavi--bhArathi has sung the Om shakti bit all in one verse and one Om is missing in the first line. It goes:

Om shakti Om shakti Om--parAshakti
Om shakti Om shakti Om
Om shakti Om shakti Om shakti--Om shakti
Om shakti Om shakti Om

Vocalist · Post by **Vocalist** » 27 Oct 2006, 12:32

Yeah, just as arasi has written.

ranjani33 · Post by **ranjani33** » 29 Oct 2006, 21:22

Actually the corrections i had made were based on reference from "BHARATHIAR kavidhaigal"- this old book which i have...so i think Poomani thazhinaiye should be correct.

Vocalist · Post by **Vocalist** » 30 Oct 2006, 16:55

ranjani, do you have a piece called "Ganapathi Thalai" in that book?
