Cassette review: Thodi by Dr Yesudas
By Sudha Jagannathan
Monday, 19 July , 2004, 10:14
Padmashri Dr.K.J.Yesudas has presented a garland of kritis in this album titled 'Thodi'. As the title suggests, all kritis in this album are from Ragam Todi.

The side A of the cassette begins with the kriti 'Swami Unnei'. This is followed by a Muthuswami Dikshitar kriti 'Mahaganapathim'.

Yesudas decorates this kriti with a superb fire works of Kalpana swaras and gamakas. Next comes a Tyagaraja kriti 'Yemijesina'. It is an absorbing kriti in the Todi raga.

In the side B, there are compositions like `Sarasija’ and `Dakshayani’. These are quite pleasing to the ears.

And, the way Yesudas renders them in his inimitable voice makes them pleasanter still. Finally, the cassette ends with an Oothukadu Venkatasubbair composition 'Thaye Yesoda'.

The way Yesudas has sung this not only brought forth the bhavam but also the beauty of the lyrics. The cassette is produced by Tarangini. It is priced at Rs.65.
