Celebrating Abheri
Ragam Abheri, also known as Bhimpalasi in the Hindustani equivalent is a Janya of the 22nd Melakarta ragam Kharaharapriya.
The charm and multiple facets of Abheri is portrayed by artistes Madhuri Kaushik and Prithvi Harish in the following Medley.
They explore and lure into the different emotions of rakthi, grandeur, tranquility and lilting happiness by stitching together multiple compositions and a stream of chitteswarams.
An interesting aspect of Carnatic classical music ‘The Grahabedham’ is also explored by the artists as they forge into ragam Mohanakalyani from the 3rd note (Gandharam) of Abheri.

What an absolutely lovely treat! Abheri so skillfully handled in a series that weaves in and out of language, emotion, pace, sync and so delicately women like an ancient tapestry, showcasing so many composers, so many deities and so many languages.

What is melody, what is singing in tandem, what is musical innovation, what is musical excellence without pakka vaadya, what is musical garland...what is to hold the audience attention, what is musical devotion, answers this humble profound rendering. Shira saashtaanga namana to you vids.Kindly bring many such videos to bring out commanalities yet uniqueness across compositions in different languages as also musical compositu forms such as keertanas, devara namas, tillanas....I feel you made lord Rama, goddess bhuvaneshwari, lord ವಿಠ್ಠಲ to come out of their temples and sit before you to listen to you.

Thanks

🙏🌺🫴❤️👌🌹🙌

[@jaackasss32]

The male artist is below average but Madhuri is amazing, balancing the certain flatness and lack of emotional dexterity in the male.

[@rukmanivijayaraghavan1085]

I think otherwise. The make artist was classical best! Measured and delivered just as it should be with perfect diction and dexterity. His voice had that unusual magic of GNB and cannot be dismissed in such general terms at all! His 'eppadi paadinaro' start was splendid, sublime.... Beautifully embellished.. personally I admire his rendition as pure classical !!

[@renugasuresh9078]
