Kala Ramnath: Raag Shuddh Kalyan

Kala Ramnath presented a stunning version of Raag Shuddh Kalyan as her opening piece at FEA's Gayatri Festival 2016. She was accompanied on tabla by the brilliant Pt. Yogesh Samsi whose subtle and tasteful interplay with Kala's violin virtuosity is to be seen and heard to be believed. An absolutely breathtaking performance by both artistes.

No cheap gimmicks........ no playing for the gallery.........just absolute masterful artistery..... WAH! Celestial, heavenly and simply beautiful. Yeh hui na baat!!!!

[@pankajpatel1109]

Heavenly performance, the gods above are unable to fault it, this is perfection!!

[@Gururajaraosandhyavandanam]

Soaked in devotion and shruthi suddam, tonal purity accompanied by splendid instrumental and taal command. Hats off. Keep this legacy going. May God bless you with long and healthy life.

[@Gururajaraosandhyavandanam]

Wonderful👏👏💐💐🙏🌻🍀🍒🇮🇳.Never heard before such beautiful rendition🎉🎉.Lord blessed this Music.

[@gadgetmihin9164]

Nice performance 👍

[@kamalbirnandra3513]

This is the way violin should be played but not many artist attempt this style as this is the most difficult style on the most difficult instrument. Kala ji, you are so precise in your pitching, murhki, gamak, rhythm, shape of the raag and expressions. Kamalbir.

[@seemagaurrow21]

Both the tabla and the violin sing very well, their jugalbandi is at a divine level.

[@seemagaurrow21]

Kala Ramanath ji is the Niece of two Violin Legends. Vidwan T N Krishnan and Vidushi N Rajam. She is the 3rd generation violinist in her family starting from her grand father Tirpunithura A Narayana Iyer. !

[@guppi277]

Gosh... She belonged in the family of Violin mafia ...! No wonder. Every single soul in that family are a violin celebrity in their own respect. Popular playback singer Vani Jeyaram also belonged in the family. What a tradition ... what pride to belong in. Respects.

[@arupacharya9617]

This truly is the music of the music.

[@anandsodhani3048]

Super rendition. So calm and soulful This is temple music. None of the artist wrestling with their instruments purely classical stuff !! God bless

Perfection at its height, in every aspect - shruti, layam, aesthetic, technique, artiste's internalization, bhava in even the swarams. Sheer delight and blessing that we are able to listen to such music/musicians. God bless you, Kala!

[@naraharibangalorenataraja2261]

Spell bound!!! actually no words to express this enthralling rendition. I am ardent diehard fan of both the versions of Indian Classical Music - Carnatic & Hindustani. This is really out of the world and transcended me into another dimension for full 50 minutes. long live our rich classical music and tradition.

Kala is Goddess of Voilin.

[@andygarn123]

What a beautiful rendition! There seems to be an influence of Ustad Amir Khan's style in both the vilambit laya, mizaaz of the badhat and taans! Fantastic Kala ji and very sensitive accompaniment by Yogesh as expected.

[@poornamsh]

True. It reminded of Ustad Amir khan. As classic as ustadji.

[@kamlakarmahajani]

Words fail me. So very soothing both artists at their best🙏👏

[@alurnataraj3915]

Absolutely delightful to listen to these two masters. Thank you first edition Arts.

पण्डित ओंकारनाथ ठाकुर की शिष्य परम्परा से आती हैं कला रामनाथ। इनका शुद्ध कल्याण सुनकर ऐसा लगता है जैसे साक्षात् पण्डित जी ही सामने बैठे गा रहे हैं! विलम्बित रचना के बोल हैं: बोलन लागीं, और द्रुत रचना के बोल हैं: पियरवा मोरा रे मँगा दे। दोनों रचनाएं यूट्यूब पर उपलब्ध हैं; रसिकजन सुनकर देखें।

[@gntatwawadi]

A very calm, serene and soul searching rendering.

+shridhar poul Thank you Shridhar. We are particularly honoured to have such great artistes work with us to give the world this wonderful music. And through these videos we hope to reach wider audiences and build a bigger community of Indian Classical music lovers. You too can help. Spread the word and share the music.

[@robingangopadhya2808]

how about setting up a Universal Trust account for the artists? or iTunes? a bit of cheating if the artist is performing for us & not getting anything to support them for this hard work.

[@udayakumarwakhale1442]

Are there any other classic artists currently like hers?

[@dvchauhan35]

Dr. N. Rajam - her aunt Dr. Sangeeta Shankar- her Cousin I mentioned the Violinists only. In 2018 Dr. Rajam's Darbari Kanada recital brought a coma patient out of coma. The patient is Sangeeta Das from Kolkata, you can google more. The music this family creates is DIVINE.

Just Fabulous!

[@thesingingviolin]

@@dvchauhan35 Ji, I wish to clarify one thing. I am Kala Ramnath. My aunt is definitely Dr. N.Rajam but the guru who taught me everything as far as violin is concerned is my grandfather Vidwan. A. Narayan Iyer who is Rajam ji's father. Whatever I am with the violin today is totally due to him. And he taught her too. I did not learn whatever I play today totally from my aunt. My aunt was and is always my idol as I wanted to be a violin player like her. I have also learnt music from Pandit Jasraj ji. Thank you.

[@dvchauhan35]

@@thesingingviolin Thank you very much for the clarification, it may be a co incident but I am right now listening to your Kedar recital 😊😊
