Hey peeps and music lovers, I want to learn Carnatic music right from Sarali Versai and looking for a music teacher for that. I live in the US and in the EST time zone. I prefer teachers who can teach on Friday evenings, Saturdays or Sundays any time which works for EST time zone. Thank you so much.
This song just has it all -- crazy variety in swaras, rapid and slow pace and would give any hip hop beat a run for its money.
That chittaswaram alone is unbelievable.
It is also a simple and fairly short song.
This is literally the most technically complex composition in Carnatic music proving the entire versatility of the music itself
I'm finding an increasing number of old people blaring videos outloud during Carnatic concerts and programs, with no regard for the other people in the audience or the artistes on stage. I don't mean technologically-challenged old people who don't know how to silence their phone if it suddenly rings. I mean willfully opening videos and WhatsApp fwds and what not and letting it play out loud, and watching it, while a performance is going on on stage. At a concert I was at Bharati Vidya Bhavan, there were at least 3 separate instances of this: some 2 people playing some song / video outloud, and one playing some video/joke , none of them scrambling to switch it off or silence it. None of this is accidental or unavoidable like a ringtone. Why even come to an event if you're not going to watch it, and also ruin the experience for others. I wish it was mandatory to leave phones outside the venue, like footwear outside a temple. I mean, sure, the younger generation doomscrolls constantly too but at least we're self aware and also don't cause disturbance to anyone else.
