rAga/tALam information for "Bhadrachala Ramadas Keerthanams"

Place to go if you want to ask someone identify raga, tala, composer etc or ask for sāhitya (lyrics) or notations or translations.

rAga/tALam information for "Bhadrachala Ramadas Keerthanams"

Post by HariKrishna »

I have this cd of M. Balamuralikrishna entitled "Bhadrachala Ramadas Keerthanams" I think it's an older recording re-released by Sa Re Ga Ma. Anyway, there are 10 songs given but no rAgam/tALam information is mentioned on the CD. I checked the lyrics source at http://www.sistla.org/Srihari-Lyrics/Ba ... nglish.pdf and from there got the following information for the songs which are listed on the CD:

1. idigO BadrAdrI gautami adigO - muKAri - Adi - tALam
2. tAraka maMtramu kOrina dorikenu - dhanyAsi - Adi - tALam
3. palukE baMgAramAyenA kOdaMDapANi - AnaMdaBairavi - Adi - tALam
4. EtIruga nanu daya jUcedavO - nAdanAmakriya - Adi - tALam
5. pAhi rAmapraBO - madhyamAvati - JaMpa - tALam
6. rAmacaMdrulu nApai - asAvEri - tripuTa - tALam
7. nanu brOvamani ceppavE - kalyANi - tripuTa - tALam
8. ikShvAku kula tilaka ikanaina palukavE – kAMBOji – tripuTa - tALam
9. takkuvEmi manaku rAmuMDokkaDuMDu - saurAShTra - Adi - tALam
10. rAmachandrAya (could not find lyrics on this but other sources that I have say that this is supposed to be in shankarAbharaNam rAgam)

SO my question to the netters is, does anyone have this CD/cassette and can verify that Balamurali is indeed singing the songs in the above rAgam/tALam assignments? I ask because I have heard that sometimes artists will sing the songs according to different rAgams, but no rAgams are mentioned in the CD.

Thanks in advance,

HariKrishna

I think idigO (song 1) is in varALi. rAmacandrAya is in kurinji.
