Attractive charnam lines of Varnams

[kartik]

How about Shyame Sakala Bhuvana Saarvabhowme?

[rshankar]

Ranganayaki - you're welcome!

[Suji Ram]

How about Shyame Sakala Bhuvana Saarvabhowme?

This would fall under-Very attractive Caranam lines of Varnam!
MSS version is the best!

Suji - yes, the best, and the only complete one that I've heard! By the way, except for the 'SyAmE' part, the rest of the caraNam could possibly apply to Smt. MSS herself!

[vasanthakokilam]

Karik, Suji, Ravi: Ditto 100%

[PUNARVASU]

Yes, that is a beautiful one! MSS' singing makes it all the more beautiful!

[rshankar]

The caraNam is incomplete - it should be 'SyAmE sakala bhuvana sArvabhaumE SaSi maNDala madhyage'

[Ranganayaki]

This is a lovely one, and the entire varnam is fantastic.

[Lakshman]

mahavishnu: I found varNAs in three ragas you asked about:

[mahavishnu]

L-ji. Thank you for the references to those varnams.

[vasanthakokilam]

I do not know if this was posted earlier when we talked about swarashtram varnam. here it is any way..Sri. Varma teaching the varnam: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47OTlnHl ... re=related

[mahavishnu]

VK: How apropos!
I can see the Prince as a very good teacher. His lec-dems on raga lakshanas are wonderful.

[Ranganayaki]

Yes, I agree, he seems to be a very good teacher.. He has a kind demeanor in the way he instructs his group. I'm really struck by this. He exudes sweetness, and I suppose it must be a joy to be around him. The lesson is wonderful, thank you so much, Vasanthakokilam.

[sindhu29]

I recently discovered sri. Varma and while going through his YouTube videos, found these two short clippings of him introducing some brilliant varnams by his guru which have been compiled into a DVD. I like the way he talks, very softly and in very simple language.
