Dushyanth Sridhar and Bharat Sundar | Sahithyam in Sangeetham | MadRasana Conversations | Episode 01

[@anjanic4848]

This is something that all music teachers should keep in mind!! I’m glad about Bantureethi correction , it has been sung the wrong way by many popular musicians. Great work 👏🏻

[@nector25]

I cried cried and cried right from the bottom of my heart for the Mokshaprapthi. (Yes Samasreyanam and Bharanyasam were blessed. Acharyan : Srimad Rangaramanuja Mahadesikan 🙏🙏🙏🙏. Nana deshakalali.......Ninne gathi enba nambithanu. ..

[@ramaravi9844]

Bantu reeti koluvu.....so beautiful. The variations in bhavam for Rama nama mane....... just divine. I loved the way how Shri. Dushyanth Sridharji builds the narrative & Shri. Bharath Sundarji's rendition. 👌👌

[@splendourmtsudarsan3062]

Today I cried Several times while I was able to understand that an act mastered was short of higer realisation when a new varient is unexplored. A jugalbandhi not only enlightened both of them and many listening. A big thank you

[@KanchanaManyam]

There were times where musicians knew at least two south Indian languages. And Sanskrit ! I am convinced that with technology , access to learning resources is high ... Current day musicians must spend time on language learning besides voice culture etc etc etc...

[@sosmetaseshadri564]

Exceptional idea this conversation triggered me memories of asking my father and knowing meaning for another beautiful gem Brovabarama.

[@venkathemadri]

Superb concept ... Something which I have been thinking about a lot ... The syntax is a must but that's only for a greater cause ... It's about the feel, the devotion which the original composer has gone through ... Something which we get to feel in every rendition of MS Amma

[@nector25]

Besh besh beautiful singing of Rama Rama by Bharat Sundar as guided Shri Dushyant Sridhar. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@podangadubukus]

So much love for Tamil and still Brahmins are thought to be pro Hindi.... :) ... What a paradox

[@aniruddharajmohan5679]

We are pro any language that beautifully praises the Bhagawan. All have their own unique beauty, whether it is Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Hindi, Sanskrit or any other language. Language is just a means of communication, something that should bring us together and closer. instead the politicians of my state(Tamil Nadu) use it as an excuse to create conflict and discrimination to separate us as a people, meanwhile their children go to international schools where they learn Hindi, French, English and so on.

[@bharathmurali712]

It's very simple , their life revolves around North Indian/sanskrit narrative, ie.. they like Bruhadeeshwaram more than Peruvidayar.(original)

[@podangadubukus]

@@bharathmurali712 dint follow the last part about brihadeshwar

[@bharathmurali712]

@@podangadubukus what I mean is , Brahmins follow North Indian narrative in Tamil Language as they know tamil and are Tamilians ie.. I mean the Thanjavur Shiva is a tamil ancestor for local Tamil people on the contrary to brahmins as the same shiva for brahmins is a god from north indian mountain Kailash. Hence there is a disconnect ie.. Tamil Brahmins are people who belive in a North Indian narrative with Tamil as their mother tongue and idly sambar as their food. When people say Brahmins are Pro - hindi it is because of their cultural orientation / narrative is the same as North Indians / hindi / sanskrit rather than Tamil.

[@podangadubukus]

@@bharathmurali712 it’s not the simple ... Tamil iyers are devout murugan, iyyapan, amman, followers and Iyengar’s are Andal and all the versions of perumal followers which are all very very distinctively Tamil and no connection to north India. Also Tamil Brahmins personally fail to associate with north Indians and their culture..

[@premanagarajan687]

I was very much looking forward to such conversations. Hats off to Dushyant and Bharat

[@parimalaramagundam6822]

Thank you so much Dushyanth. Just two days back I had a discussion with my junior who happened to sing bantu reeti koluvu as bantu reeti kolu viyavayya rama Nama rama mane as nama rama maaane.......Had to argue with her that she was singing incorrectly .... Will share her this video hopefully she trusts what I said was true.

[@usharaghunath]

Biduuuuuuu.... how much can you bring the emotions of the composer out when you understand the context? Beautiful. Thank you for this excellent conversation and program

[@chandini.p.s]

Absolutely mesmerising,thought provoking,enjoyable ,blissful,enchanting,what more can Isay…..Simply out of vocabulary to appreciate.Two intellectuals two artists ,two musicians ,two devotees, two with profound knowledge ,how else would the programme be!

[@mythilir.n4346]

What I liked most was Bharat sunders improvisation listening to Dushyant sridhars suggeestions

[@gayathrikrishnan1955]

Great going - both of you. I had half a dozen goose bumps in part 1,2 and 3. To me - Kannada was best, the explanation and singing brought tears in my eyes. Keep it up!!

[@lalitharsk]

Beautiful programme They are not youngsters. According to me they are very old in their knowledge. Music only is their life. Evlo azaghu singing and also explanation. Our best wishes.

[@ramakrishnaraop3968]

Wonderful and intesting discussion by the two stalwarts on the importance of understanding sahityam while rendering carnatic krithis which were composed by the Vaggeyakarars.

[@splendourmtsudarsan3062]

I was brought up in North and when I lived I got a different bhakti marg but when I came back to tamilnadu not able to read or write tamil. Even speaking you have a senthil/goundermani as one to emulate......as age catches up for bhakti find that my younger breed here are here to teach. I have a pleasure to learn from the younger flock and my understanding is better due to my experience of life

[@malathynarayanan6078]

Highlighted lines - arumai, aruuumai ,Arrumai.Thanks.namaskaram

[@hariharanr2140]

Great to know about Vidwan Sethalapathi Balasubramaniam. His Tamizh viruttam on Muruga from Kandaralankaram was so moving and touching the heart. Om Muruga, Hare Krishna

[@suchitranimbalkar318]

oh! wow.....bringing it out ...skill truly. pranams. sri gurubhyo namaha.

[@splendourmtsudarsan3062]

God bless both of you. Saraswati resides in you on your tongue and Vishnu in your mind and lakshmi in your heart (prosperity distributed by the knowledge and intent). The breathe of Hanuman as a wind god connecting the jeevatma to paramatma. God bless you

[@shankarabharanam]

Thanks Madrasana for having this conversation. The viruttam by Shri Balasubramanium was so beautiful. Thanks to Bharat for playing. Not many recordings are available in the public space and I have heard a lot about his viruttams

[@rajalakshmim1967]

The anchor is really good ,searched for more interview by him in this channel ,his hold on langauge is good .

[@kkamesh9866]

This is brilliant. There were so many things we learnt from watching this.. can't wait to watch other episodes. Both Dushyant and Bharat are ao good and knowledgeable. We need more of such conversations..🙏

[@MadRasana]

Thank you Kamesh. The next episode is coming up soon. Watch out for it.

[@badrinarayananv]

Wow! What a magic... Madrasana + Dushyant + Bharat 👌👌👌🙏

[@raghuveermuralichakravarth1685]

Beautiful and loved every bit. The importance of Sahithyam truly stood out. The wonderful message of 'sahithyam rounds-off music' was brilliantly put across

[@malinip.s.6485]

Had Goosebumps throughout!! Thanks to both of you legends to bring in this new concept and it's most important to understand the context and the mood let it be any language . Hats off to both of you!!

[@sandhyaviswanathan9696]

Eagerly waiting to watch!!!!

[@aishwaryaramakrishnan2049]

The thumbnail itself looks so much fun :) waiting!

[@VSPG_SIVANI]

Yes

[@sumitrasriram7451]

Absolutely amazing!! Loving Bantureethi Rama naama mane!!! What a magic, understanding the meaning and various interpretations is a powerful weapon by itself in rendering krithis

[@kalyanivenkat3155]

superb effort...please continue...awaiting eagerly for your videos and explanations to lot more krithis..

[@desikanmukundagiri1036]

waiting for this type of lecture for long.Thank you vidwans.

[@banukeerthi162]

Vow,,,,,no words indeed....what an intellectual conversations between u two legends

[@raguprasad2782]

Excellent and blessed to hear this conversation 🙏 Naragolage Bidhu - Very true (I and Me) - the whole issue in the world is because as we all fall into this well of I and Me - Thank you 🙏 🙏🙏

[@daminisree4917]

Mad rasana you are doing a great job! It is very helpfull and useful for music learners. Thank you so much. Expecting more videos from your team. I subscribed your channel after listening to" maa mayura " for the first time. All the best !!😊

[@MadRasana]

Thank you so much for your kind words.

[@sunandarangarajan4901]

MadRasana Official you guys are great

[@sethuramanb]

Excellent concept and very well handled by both the experts in their respective fields.👏🏼👏🏼

[@seshadrisubramanian]

Awesome! The context and meaning of sahityam definitely adds to the bhavam which is so important.Discussions bears that out.Look forward to next episode.

[@muralikrishnagadepalli4454]

Very interesting and thrown light on "sahityam and bhavam" also. 👍👌👏🙏

[@balachandarkrishnamurthy8965]

Pranams to sethalapathi maama, vat a moving sindhu bhairavi

[@shankarkrishnaswamy2243]

Nice presentation and a nice concept. Requires many more such programs. Knowing the context of the songs will also make a good listening experience.

[@MadRasana]

Thank you so much

[@indupriyadarsini9212]

Great session sir. Enjoyed... Acho padhigam by Manicka Vasagar

[@dmg2034]

I really loved the conversation about Sangeetha and sahityam .at the same time how understanding the sahityam will bring immense bhava am.thank you so much.

[@vijaylakshmisundaram8742]

Yes, beautiful indeed.. Heartwarming to listen to such dedicated and clear-cut opinions on music, language and baaNi. 👐👐

[@jalk1959]

I am also a fan of karunagara achaariar's upanyasam. Please can you upload any of his upanyasam

[@indiragaindiraga3368]

Novel concept @Madrasana Official, congratulations! Important to invoke the context as it does gets conveyed in the form of singer's involvement during the rendition of the kriti and also for a rasika(listener) as not only does it move you instantaneously but also transports you immediately into the story as if you are watching from behind the scenes.

[@perumalsanthosh3512]

Two Legend's are Very nice Speech and Superb

[@radhikapremanand6]

Very very very informative episode

[@RamamurthyshankarShankar]

I have heard him singing sivan songs sitting near hm. In Delhi.

[@MadRasana]

Thank you mama.

[@MadRasana]

Thank you so much

[@sumitrasriram7451]

You guys make a great team in creating musical magic

[@Pree96]

Beautiful :) Thanks for having this conversation. I was thinking how even old Hindi songs oda words were split. Example : Ehsaan Tera Ho-Gaa Mujh Par!

[@anushav272]

Beautifully complemented act by both 👏 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@lalitharsk]

My namaskarangal to your knowledge

[@umaswaminathan5154]

I feel, sahithyam is helps us to express our bhavam about what the song says

[@vidyarangarajan7510]

Very Nice! Thank you..We must pe proud of our pokkisham.

[@ANANTHU1938]

Super discussion. Remember the Englush poet, "What was oft thought but ne'er so well expressed". Both justified this in their views.

[@11vijiable]

superb..

[@k.rajeshjagananth3769]

Bharat and Dushyanth - you are so good at teaching. You need to be on Livedemy.

[@freshmaniac8450]

Let's have more of these kinds of episodes giving importance to the sahithya please.

[@lakshmisridhar2544]

Excellent both of u.God bless.

[@choodarajan7858]

Aha enna suhanubavam . Kannirai adakka mudiyavillai. Thank u Dushyanth&Barath

[@MsWarbucks]

Thank you. I do believe the singer brings something more to the song when they know the context and meaning. We were told the story and context before even the first note was taught to us. One thing, I almost wished your whole conversation was in Tamil .. of course for the larger audience it had to be in a mix of Tamil & English! At least more Tamil than English maybe!

[@11vijiable]

that was great.. thank you Madrasana..

[@MadRasana]

Glad you enjoyed.

[@2069jonty]

Excellent Mahesh and Madrasana team!! A very beautifully done video with great insights into how Sahityam is the essence. Would be great to see a Carnatic with a Hindustani performer talking about the similarity and differences in their experiences, especially how they treat the same Ragam / Raag. Congratulations once again!!👍👍👏👏💥💥🌈🌈

[@MadRasana]

Thank you much. Good idea. Will keep that in mind.

[@krishnanvasudevan6050]

Excellent conversation. Dushyanth and Bharath were great in sahithyam and sangeetham

[@leelakrishnan9104]

Neenga angle erukkenge in America why no Tamil please

[@mythilir.n4346]

Today being MS Amma's birth anniversary the song is apt

[@chandini.p.s]

Waiting formore

[@MadRasana]

There is a full course of 36 songs done similar to this. For more details you can visit www.madrasana.com. The course starts on Oct 15th

[@padmasrishankar9554]

Amazing insightful conversation!!

[@cosmicthoughts5897]

I don't no music but iwas cried

[@d.cypher2920]

As an American 'westerner' I really struggle sometimes to truly understand Classical Carnatic music, this is a great insight into two great musicians that are explaining their approach and opinions about various topics from music, and particularly Carnatic music. '...a 'real' Carnatic musician should know 1,500 songs by heart (memorized)...' 😲😳😳 Edit: the Lord Krishna sliding across the ground whilst eating a great ball of melting butter is burned into my mind now, and your mention of M.S. Subulakshmi singing, haunting my ear. 😁 ☀️😎☀️🇺🇸

[@MadRasana]

Thank you so much for your kind words. Glad you enjoyed it

[@d.cypher2920]

@@MadRasana absolutely! Looking forward to listening (watching) the rest, there are quite a few to choose from. 🇺🇸🤝🇮🇳 🙏

[@chitramukundan9260]

Superb, waiting for many more such conversations. A small suggestion, please increase the number of songs you take up for sahitya and exploration. . But both of you, great job.
