Sangeetha Kalanidhi Dr.T.V.Gopalakrishnan pays a beautiful and heartfelt tribute to the Legend Sri M.D.Ramanathan during the MDR Day Celebrations at Tripunithura, in February 2018.
MDR എന്ന പ്രതിഭയെ അറിയാൻ വളരെ താമസിച്ചുപോയി, പക്ഷേ MDR ന്റെ സംഗീതം ഇപ്പോൾ എന്റെ ജീവിതത്തിന്റെ അവിഭാജ്യ ഘടകമാണ്..ശുദ്ധ സംഗീതത്തെ അറിയുവാൻ അദ്ദേഹത്തിന്റെ വഴിയിൽ ഞാൻ തേടി അലയുന്ന ഒരു ബാലനാണ്..,🙏🙏🙏
As said by the great TVG, MDR sang with love and absolute conviction. His music was simple yet beautiful. His deep voice was so resonant even hearing his Sa was enough to satisfy. I’ve had the great pleasure of learning from Sri KJ Yesudas and he would always tell me, “MDR is the greatest Carnatic musician ever.” Rs. 500 a month for his job? 😳
What a reminiscence and recollection narrated by our great guruji Dr. TVG Sir? No words can truly express our appreciation to his narration🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏. It was a great insight to who the great MDR Sir was and the extent he loved music and his devotion to it. Great great great!!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏
