Navaroj varnam(s)

keerthi · Post by **keerthi** » 20 Jan 2009, 22:19

Is there a navaroj varnam which goes Inta chalamu..? May I have the notation..
are there any other varnas in the raga??
I found one in the TKG Swati tirunal book, Entani vedaga, minus padmanabha or any synonyms of this word.. Could it be a misattribution..?

Sir, do you have the notation for the Govindasamayya varnam?? May I have it??

Why do you say the other piece may or may not be a varnam?

I said that because I just had the lyrics but no notation. I have since confirmed that it is indeed a varNa. If you want the notation I have it now.

The entani.. notation..? If it isn't the tkg version; i would be grateful if you could pass it on.. i have TKG's notation, but your's wil serve for comparison. what about the other one. i remember reading in articles on the tiruvArUr nagaswaram tradition, that they used to play varnams in navroj, erukulakamboji etc..
could the govidasamaaya varnam be the same as this tiruvArUr navroj varnam..?

The notation I have is by TKG.
