Raga Nalinakanthi Part - 2

Hi all,

I have updated my blog with the second part of the discussion on the beautiful and romantic raga naLinakAnthI. In the first part of raga naLinakAnthI a basic introduction to this beautiful raga was made with regard to its structure and handling along with a comparison between a close sister raga kedAram.
The second part starts with a comparison between the hindustani raga Thilak KhAmod and Nalinakanthi. Then the colours of nalinakanthi are discussed from the point of view of compositions, both classical and cinematic.
As a finishing, I have included a small composition of mine in this raga, a western-classical-indian fusion.

Do check out the post here : http://aboutindianmusic.com/2012/03/raga-nalinakanthi-part-2/ and leave your comments and feedback.

Cheers!!

Music Uploads and Random Stuff

Hi all,

I have created a new page for uploading random music audios and stuff that I find interesting. At the moment I have uploaded an excellent Lecture-demonstration-concert by Sri RK Srikantan on the raga Reethigowla and also the Original Sound Track of the movie Sringaram for which the music was conceived and composed by Sri Lalgudi Jayaraman.

So check out the page here @ Music Uploads

Cheers!!
