Truly one of the finer contemporary performances of this krithi. His forebear must be incredibly pleased with such a delightful rendition of his composition. Sometimes the appeal of popular krithis is lost by frequent rendition / listening. Key to this classy performance is how the Prince has chosen this kalapramAnam and structured the swara sequence. Sri Vinu is one of the finest violinists from “God’s own country”, matches every nuance of the Prince with his own riposte. The percussion vidwans and the mukharshanku exponent elevate the overall concert experience. A special mention of the ever smiling tambura vidwan who is a constant in the Prince’s concerts and makes his own silent contribution. Possibly the nth time I am listening, was compelled to write a comment now on listening to the swara treatment.

Please check out this playlist too. This is one of the best Panthuvaralis I have Ever heard! You can share it with your teacher and friends too. He sings round after round of swarams within a single cycle of the Taala! Just unbelievable! The Alap and the Thaanam too! kzbin.info/www/bejne/eH_Kh3aEmp6pjcU

[@ilashankar9031]

@@musiquebox thank you so much sir. We would have appreciated it if the tambura artist's name was also highlighted. I've never seen a more unassuming, devoted accompanist, contented to be there in the background, yet, totally attentive to the master!! 🙏🙏🙏

@@ilashankar9031 Varma ji keeps reminding me to add his name every time, but I forget to at times. Varma ji however, never does. Just watch these introductions. He was one of the earliest to start acknowledging the Thambura artist. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bn7Mk5l8jN5kpqM

[@jayanthcanchi2395]

Tanpura is played by Ananthapadmanabhan. Per Shri Rama Varma he also sings everyday in a Temple. If I remember right, The Wonderful Ananthapadmanabha Swamy temple in Thiruananthapuram.

[@jayanthcanchi2395]

I believe the Thampura is 100+ years old.
