Feeling Defeated by Kalpanaswaram? Do this- |

My Guru Sangeetha Bhushanam AS Mani taught me a trick to help me master Kalpanaswaram. And I have never been scared of such improvisation ever since. Hope the tip helps you in your musical journey too.

What an experience watching you explaining such details in carnatic music! Blessed to live in this period in which you live, mam🙏

[@sneharaghavan3471]

Namaskaram maam. Thanks a ton for sharing this valuable piece of your musical journey. This is sure to help young musicians like me to learn better. Pls share some more on conceptualizing a raga & graha bhedam. Thank you.

[@abhilashaojha]

These are exactly the invaluable lessons that one searches for while studying and getting into the deeper ocean of music. This is so beautifully explained. Thank you Ma’am. I love how you talk to us with so much clarity, getting into the nuances of music, also sharing in some of the videos the acceptance of failure, of concerts having gone wrong... some of those videos have stayed with me and they allowed me to look inward and approach music with an even more sense of devotion and surrender.

[@suryaprakasaraovishnuvajha2048]

Aruna, hearty Congrats for the very fine way you taught the younger singers as well as the Rasika - the correct way of dwelling into the knowledge of improving the KalpanaSwarna’s in general and that for Ananda Bhairavi in particular.Prakasa Rao, B-9, PAOA

[@geethakumari5997]

Very good explanation

[@melodysri]

Mind blowing ma'am.... what a great learning... thanks so much 😊🙏🙏 I know that the kalpanaswara that day would ve not been the same as what you today 😀

[@yuvm5465]

Thank you Amma for sharing this . This is amazing experience you got, I am delighted and gifted to hear this from you. This experience goes into my register when learning kalpanaswaram.

[@msnsastrigal]

[@subbulakshmic7994]

Super madam ❤. You have opened my eyes of ignorance on kalpanaswara and now I am ready to implement the logic you suggest 🙏

[@SanjaysMusic]

Experience in life is to get from living the life. We all shaped our life from experience. This lesson is an awsome experience to share with Rasikas.. Thank you amma..

[@TamilTravels]

Mam wishes from your rasikas. In one of the videos you explained the difference between listening carnatic music with the knowledge and without. You compared it with temple Prasad and a big feast. Awesome explanation.

[@rameshbabugopinathan5044]

You have a Generous mind mam. That's why you shared how you learnt. You have actually thrown a light to the learning people. Thank you mam.

[@srutisukumar8609]

This is how people teach Kalpana swara. Whats generous? She overshadowed geetha raja her own sister in Law. No offense.

[@binitha_balan]

Beautiful narrative 😍

[@devaanirawat5593]

Namaste mam....am from north India..from Uttarakhand...and I want to learn Carnatic vocal....mam plz share us some knowledge...how I can start and what to do... because I have no resources here in my state

[@JanaVasan90]

Kalpana swaras will come in experience and more of hearing from other artist Rendition. You can crack for any other raaga then. Follow the below steps: Step 1: Sing arohanam and avarohanam as many times as you can Step 2: identify the key notes or jeeva swaras for the Ragam. Practice those notes. Step 3: slowly sing the notes and then faster Step 4: identify the suitable line in a keerthi and start improving. Do not put thalam until you attain perfection in swaras. Step 5: once you are all set, put your kalpana swaras and do it with Thalam. (easy to put kalpana swaras for keerthi's in Adi and Rupakkam) Key to crack the hurdle is patience and listening to other artist renditions.

[@arunsreenivasan2074]

Thank you sir

[@krishnavasudev2155]

Very valuable input..thank you sir

[@mahalakshmi3004]

Thank you for the information sir

[@lancedsouza1547]

Strong understanding of Layam needed too. If you can understand jathis it will help you place Kalpana swaram appropriately and add a touch of flourish

[@haritadepalli959]

Confused, madam. You were supposed to stay within the sa-ri-ga-ma-pa range. But your kalpana went from lower ni to upper sa.
