Req pl identify Ragams of the Ragamalika in the Audio Clip

Post by Sundar Krishnan »

[Dt : 17th May, 2010]

The Audio Clip (http://www.sendspace.com/file/yx9h4f) is of a Ragamalika that was played in the Taanam part of a Mohana Kalyani (MK) Alapanai. The song was most probably Seve Shrikantam song.

1) I need help to identify / confirm the Ragams in their chronological order in the Audio Clip : Pl-Cnfrm_Vlji-Sama-Kapi-Srmti-Mhnm-MK-Q_1628.mp3.

Thanks – 1.

My initial guess :

a : ~ 0:00.0 m – 1:25.5 m Valaji ? (Pl confirm.)

b : ~ 1:26 m – 3:00 m Sama ? (Pl confirm.)

c : ~ 3:01 m – 4:34 m Kapi ? (Pl confirm. If Kapi, is it Hindustani Kapi ?)

d : ~ 4:35 m – 5:50 m Saramati ? (Pl confirm.)


e : Here’s where I have most doubts – I have subdivided this time range into 3 sub-ranges :

i) ~ 5:51 m – 6:54 m : Mohanam ? (Or MK ? Not sure ? Pl confirm.)

ii) ~ 6:55 m – 7:14 m : Also Mohanam ? (or MK ? Here too, not sure. Pl confirm.)

iii) ~ 7:15 m – 7:29.2 m (End) : Also Mohanam ? Towards the end, it slightly sounded momentarily like Mohana Kalyani ? Yes, at the end of this Ragamalika, we expect Mohana Kalyani. But …

2 ) I have tried searching for the lyrics of this Swati Tirunal’s song : Seve ShrikAantam in a number of sites including :
http://www.karnatik.com/ragasm.shtml#mOhana%20kalyANi and http://www.swathithirunal.in/compo_raaga.htm, but in vain.
[http://www.swathithirunal.in/htmlfile/325.htm gives some info in Malayalam script ??]

Could someone pl send me the lyrics of this song.
Better would be if someone could send me a proper working exact url, from where, we can download many of Swati Tirunal's songs' lyrics - in English and / or Sanskrit. Thanks – 2.
