Carnatic in Movies 7: Malayamarutham
Have you ever heard the raaga 'Malayamarutham' especially in the morning? The one word equivalent for mellifluous - a perfect raaga for morning. It just flows! Ever since I heard the first song 'Manasa Etulo' by Thyagaraja several years ago, I wanted to write this. Dr.M.Balamurali Krishna gave his best to this song. I was waiting for my favorite guru Dr.K.J.Yesudas to sing this as I have never seen this in any of his albums. I was fortunate to hear in one of his live concerts. Superb!
There are few other songs in authentic carnatic:
- Dhanyu devado Darsarathe in Telugu by Dr.K.J.Yesudas
- Oraaru Mugamum in Tamil by T.M.Soundarajan
- Brahma Kamalam in Malayalam Dr.K.J.Yesudas
In movies, I could find few real good ones:
- "Neeala Kuyile Unnodu Than" by Ilayaraja
- "Kanmani Nee Vara Kaathirundhen" by Ilayaraja
- "Ragasiyamai" by Karthik Raja
- "Thumba Poovil" in Malayalam by Dr.K.J.Yesudas
- "Malaya Marutha Raaga" in Kannada by Dr.K.J.Yesudas
Great raaga, really! Try the Hindusthani version by Hari Prasad Chaurasia in MusicIndiaOnline.com to appreciate the raaga in flute.
