Thanks for the list.
All the margazhi songs list at one place !!!!
Can you also share ragas for thirupalliyezhuchi sung by mlv

[SrinathK]

It is there in Post #2 itself. See carefully the names of the songs. It is both Thiruvempavai and Thirupalliyezuchi

[ajaysimha]

thanks srinath

[rbharath]

some people sing the 16th thiruppavai in darbAr.

You seem to be following the tuning by Ariyakkudi Ramanuja Iengar.
It appears that there are some differences between the MLV ragams and those of ARI.( a few). I should check up.
We get the tunes by ARI in MIO ( VOL-1 AND VOL-2),. You might have already seen the links.in google.
29 is a great poem in theme.
----------------------

MLV Amma deviated from Ariyakudi in three songs — ‘Naayakanai’ (from Darbar to Mohanam), ‘Maari Malai’ (Manirangu to Bilahari) and ‘Chittranchiru’ (Malayamarutham to Madhyamavathi)

Not only this, Ariyakudi's mArghazi thingaL was also completely different from the popular version.

The earlier thread is here.
viewtopic.php?t=26136
POST-18 is confusing. The list should be given in the traditional sequence of the paasurams.
-----------------------------------------------
Am I right in surmising that it was Ariyakkudi Ramanuja Iengar who first set the thirty songs of Thiruppaavai to ragams? and sang them?( as suggested by Kanchi Acharya?) Is there any 78 rpm record-set for the songs by him? or CD?
Where can we get the songs in his own voice for paasuram 14 and 15?

[HarishankarK]

Who tuned Thiruvembavais?

[SrinathK]

I think Semmangudi.

[jshrikanth]

Where can we get the songs in his own voice for paasuram 14 and 15?

The YouTube channel of AmuthamMusicVideos has several Thiruppavai pasurams sung by Ariyakudi.
This includes pasurams 14 and 15, but a few others are missing. Also, the pasurams are not numbered/ ordered properly.

Here is playlist link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCsL4uk ... VmFsVLfuQx

[Mods: hope i can post this link here. Will be happy to remove it if it's an issue.]
