I have already quickly sampled some of the songs in all the CDs. I have found new (to me) gems by Shyama Sastri and Muthuswamy Deekshidar. I really cannot adequately express the intense musical, emotional, and bhakti high I am getting from these songs. Right now, I have discovered these keerthanas and listening to them at least twice every day:
Ranganayakam sung by D K Pattammal: I was unaware that D K Pattammal was one of the women trinity or the matriarchs of karnatic music. What a voice! Subbulakshmi has that ethereal CNC machine sculptured perfect rendition. MLV has a most beautiful light voice which carries you aloft on waves of bliss. DK Pattammal's voice is so pleasant to listen to, clear as a bell, very homely, deeply expressive emotionally. I found that this keerthana is one of the Srirangam Pancharatna Krithis of Muthuswami Dikshidar, the most famous one being Rangapura Vihara. Indeed it has similar sahityam:
Ranganayakam Anupallavi:
Angaja Taata Mananta Mateetam Ajendraadyamaranutam Satatam
Uttungavihanga Turangam Krupa Paangam Ramaantarangam Sri
Rangapura Vihara Anupallavi:
Angaja Janaka Deva Brndavana Saarangendra Varada Ramanta
Ranga Shyamalaanga Vihanga Turanga Sadayapanga satsanga
The Adi Tala mridangam beat is captivating, and DKP's voice is evocative, wistful, and yearning for Sri Ranganayaka.
Mayamma sung by K V Narayanaswamy: Shyama Sastri's music has been compared to a sweet kadali-phalam (banana) which easily disperses sweetness into your mouth without your having to work hard for it. His musical expressions are the most complex (listen to the Swarajatis!) but the most emotionally and intellectually pleasing. The sahitya in this song is so simple, but so great, I love it.
Mayamma ani nenu pilichite, matlada ravemi? Idi nyayamena Sri Meenakshamma? Ninnu vina, vere dikkevarunnaru?
Rough translation: I call you, my mother, but you do not come and talk with me. Is this just, mother Sri Meenakshi? Other than you, who else can I go to?
I like the part in italics where it goes "nammiti nammiti nammiti":
sarasijabhava harihara nuta sulalita nI padapaMkajamula sthiramani nammiti nammiti nammitini karuNajUDavE kAtyAyani kALikA bhavAni paramEshvari sundarEshu rANi bAlAmbA madhuravANi
Devi Brova sung by K V Narayanaswamy: This Shyama Sastry song was intense and stunning when I heard it at about 9:30 PM. It is charming where K V Narayanaswamy goes an octave lower when the sahitya is "da" in "ni dasuda" and "aa" in "bimbadari":
C1: lOkajananI nApai dayalEdA leda nI dAsuDa gAdA shrI kAnci vihAriNI kalyANI EkAmrEshvaruni priya bhAmayai yunna nee kEmammA entO bhAramA vinumA talli
C2: shyAmakRSNuni sOdari kaumAri shaHNkari bimbAdari gauri hEmAcalajE lalitE paradEvatE kAmAkSi ninuvunA bhUmilO prEmatO kApADEvareva runnArammA nannu
I appreciate that Shyama Sastry entreats the mother to come "ati vegame" = very quickly.
Among the other CDs I got, on the Hyderabad Brothers CD I am enjoying Brochevarevare so much. These guys are really good at Thyagaraja keerthanas. The version of Sri Saraswati on U Srinivas' Sangeet Sartaj is simply great. I don't know if you heard it, it is on many Music Today CDs. I have BMK Thillanas and MS Mela Raga Malika Chakra on tape but bought them again on CD for the better quality.
