Kedaram Thillana

[shygan]

Hi All,

Would anyone happen to know the composer of the thillana in Kedaram Ragam.
The charanam starts like
Ninne Nammi Naanura.

There is a youtube link for this too.

Thank you

[Lakshman]

Can you please post the video link? Thanks.

I did not see this thread last year. With respect to composer, there appears to be confusion among dancers themselves, as the tillana is steeped in Vazhuvur tradition. IIRC, in a lec-dem by Guru Rhadha, Padma Subrahmanyam clarified that this was a composition of Ramiah Pillai himself. I have no print source for this.

The vocalist in the recording, however, is Rajarathnam Pillai.
