Gaanavarshini
Price:
This is an assorted CD,if you are looking for more than one composer and not more than one of every composer.The inimitable resonance and flawless voice of Nithyashree comes strikingly forward right from the first piece,the not-so popular Ekambresa Nayike in Karnataka Sudha Saveri by Dikshitar. Nithyashree goes about the task of establishing her knowledge of this raagam with a well-sketched swara prastharam. The DK family possession, vaa muruga in Begada by the contemporary composer Spencer Venugopal follows, in a dramatic form, jumbled with a lot of twists and turns, ups and down.! listen to sample. The extensive use and presence of words in this composition is enhanced with extra twists and brigas, making lines appear longer and more complicated than they already are! Charukesi raagam follows, in a cinematic and dramatic fashion, not the best of charukesi or Nithyashree. Too much of repetition and limited attempt. Samanya valla by Purandaradasa is loud but elaborately handled.Kalyani, for nidhichala sukhama with the very expected neraval and swaram in mamatha bandhana… but we could have done with the for-the-glamour of-it approach here – considering the reverence most carnatic lovers have for this composition. Spare 25 minutes of your time for this package plus the thani that follows. Brinadavnam in Brindavani by Sattur Karpagam and Aayiye Giridhar in Purya Dhanashree by Swati Thirunal get some hard-stressed treatment full of inexplicable brigas and sangathies – duly supported by a large coterie of accompanists – ghatam, morsing included. S.Karthick on the Ghatam, A.S.Krishnan on the morsing share stage, mike and sound with I.Sivakumar (Nithyashree’s father) and M.A.Krishnaswamy on the violin - but the symphony of a such a large accompanist list only adds to the overall effect, thanks to her voice. But for die-hard Nithyashree fans,there’s a lot in store. Glamour, music, variety in composer, subtle brigas and loud thrashes.-critique
