TM Krishna: Raga Hamir Kalyani 

We love your violin suhalakshmi want to listen to you more often God bless you swarajyam

Subhu mam..what you hold in your shoulder is not your violin but the soul of carnatic music.hats off you mam and the magic performer tmk...

Absolutely

She's an exceptional vocalist too.

Exactly ❤❤❤

Well said!

Haha Apparently there's not much of good music you have listened to.

@@AnanthNatyou look as miserable as I assumed you to be. 😂

💙

think of them as crows cawing from the trees, or trolls that live under a bridge. They have no appreciation for beauty. They are about making noise.

slumdogmusic They are simply sadists

slumdogmusic tmk is more known for the controversies he kicks up than for his art.he is mediocre.and these days we have so much of a dearth of maestros in Carnatic music that even tmk is regarded a maestro.

Anyway,he is one of the best singers we have.i wish him all the best.

I think you are confusing his possible mediocrity (I don't have an opinion on that) in the various controversies he is in the middle of with his mediocrity in music. He is truly an amazing musician.

@@shrikhar Happens to some people who are still stuck with the Carnatic trinities compositions.

@@shrikhar Could you please give us a rough translation for those who don't understand Tamil? Would be very grateful 🙏🏼🤗

Perhaps Vijay Siva, being the vocalist brother of Manoj Siva, also plays Mrudangam quite well, but this is Manoj :). very well said though!

Because the beauty of the music and the artform has little to do with what is essentially an exclusionary tradition that has done little to actually expand the boundaries of this art

Because taste differs & some folks are more aesthetically inclined than technical mastery. I did not feel the beauty of this gorgeous ragam in this rendering. His performance is more technical & like lecture demo atleast for me. Not to mentions issues with sruthi, diction & frankly singing talent

@@prakks the thing with singing is no one really listens to correct the singer. So unless you're an expert technically, you wouldn't waste your time doing that. Not that it's a bad thing though

GRT observation...

Yes madam

And if interested, please watch this interview madam. She lived in Delhi ,she was interested in music and she couldn't attend concerts. Starting at the age of seven, she heard recorded concerts and cassettes and practised to reproduce what she heard before a proper training in violin. Thanks and regards.

Ramya Keerthi he always was and always will

There are gamakas which are the very soul to the south Indian music traditions. If you listen to a lot of Carnatic music or even Carnatic based movie songs you can clearly feel the Hindustani music and the presentation is very different. Even this ragam is not exact Kedar but that's the best we can relate to.

Awesome krishna sir.I am from A.P.westgodavari,Penugonda.we are very lucky to have A Gandarva T.M.K with us.I am a deepest fan of you.In your singing any raaga stands as mile stone.violin sister subbalakshmi excellent following.

TNS indeed excels in HK, Brindavasaranga and such.

No to worry about protest and support. That is all human nature and prevailing here on the earth. Music is divine, a good rendition of raga reaches its destination where there is no room for protest. The meaning of the words have a divine meaning and it does not have the purported meaning the singer may have in mind before singing the songs. Once the singer is immersed in the song, there is one purpose and that is different

Im pretty sure this is a carnatic concert :)

yes it is

It is close Manu. But there are distinct characteristics which make Hamirkalyani different. The suddha madhyamam, for instance. And the various prayogams involving either or both madhyamams.

I would definitely support it,if such a genre existed though.

Jayashankar Rajagopalan I’m more curious to know if politics in hampering the arts and artists, which is giving rise to the non-existent new genre you mentioned. Also, Music has been used as a form of protest since years by the way. Including music pieces against British in India and against the Saudi in Pakistan. Arts served and serve to be the utmost subtle means of expression and education for or against anything correct or wrong

RAM KRISHNA what's the problem?

What a brilliant alapana wow great thanks a lot hear him

The problem is the difficulty of having two each of the ears and eyes. They see and hear the same all the time. Should use one set to see the person and listen to his music.

ravee mahadevan we can't be blind to all the non sense and gimmicks he is indulging in Chennai. In the name taking music to the masses, he has taken music to the dogs.

Ram krishna, my PAttee ( grandmother, here) used to tell me and I quote her in tamizh " patarathAna, veli-vasaley ninnu pAdu. Aadu, mAdu, paravai, anEka jeeva jalangalum kekkattum. The lord's pic with his music and the cows in tango always had an importance to me because it conveys much more than what meets the eye. And ear, if you may. Krishna took it to the cows. If TMK has really been successful in imparting it to the dogs, as you mentioned, from the confines of the Sabhas, I for one, would be the happiest. They respond much better than many of the twin legged creatures. His music? We all know he excels in it when he needs to. So much for that. And to conclude- English, sometimes, is a lousy way to communicate an idea. I am sure the dogs would agree. I put this discussion to rest. You may respond, troll, abuse or insult and sign out if you so wish. I would appreciate all that with a 'Namaskaram, Periavar'

Tisra nadai or tisra gati. Jaati has a different meaning.

It's a violin. Unless your question was rhetoric...

Haha Laughing still. People go overboard. Let's think of he might have been in the limelight but for his political activities.

That's true of the average Carnatic rendition, as compared to its Hindustani equivalent, most of the time. There's a sense that a lot more goes on in each phrase, right from the moment the aalap sets off for us.

Define meditative. The hamir Kalyani of Carnatic music is NOT kedAra of Hindustani tradition, although it might have common origins with it. Listen to some compositions of hamir kalyani and you'll come to know that like dvijavanthi, it has been shaped into a strong carnatic raga even while retaining aspects of the Hindustani lakshanas. I have uploaded venkata shaila vihara rendered by same musician. Observe the rendering of the composition, which has strong carnatic phrases of hamir kalyani. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OMj5Xib3tdc.html

Bhargav Ramv.....very....fine. . melodious.music ...

Bhargav, Gaurav, good observation. Yes the rendition has a strong carnatic touch to it. TMK is a carnatic musician! And indeed same goes for Venkata saila vihara.

@@bhargavram3480 ​@UCrZJW7XJD6PTGdo-Kh16rlA ​@UCIbtvt76iNdQO0APU8Krm4A While we are on the topic of Kedar/Hamir Kalyani, I would like to draw your attention to another near-perfect rendition of Hindustani Kedar by Kishori Tai ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wmyrgqdyWR8.html. I liked it very much, thought you would like to hear it too.

@Shreyas K Don't even bother with such people sir. He/she will not change. We can only suffer such people because they are the loudest. I am pretty sure someone will see my surname and assume that I'm talking with a hidden agenda. I've stopped commenting below such statements just because of this reason. I can't even remember how many people have insulted me and my family for appreciating or defending TMK. I can't remember how many people said that me and my parents were 'rice bag converts' and that I shouldn't be listening to Carnatic music. I have given up completely. There is no hope. I sometime pop online like this on the comments section just to warn people not waste time arguing with these people.

@Shreyas K at least we still have open minded people like you :) And I can still enjoy carnatic music through RU-vid!!! Just have to remind myself not to look at the comments section if it's a TMK video. Also....May God bless you :)

Comment is in poor taste. If you have a point to make, maybe not try to disrespect the artists next time.

And all you could notice is the man watching the lady, not his rendition. How very convenient 🤓

Lol people with petty minds make petty comments 🤣 caught red-handed

Actually he did sing on Allah and Christ. Which was kinda cool.

What's wrong in wearing lungi or dhoti!? Both are typical south Indian male attire!!

Yov 🙄
