Lalgudi Memorial - Revathi Thillana: San Diego Labs | Indian Classical Music

"April 22, 2017” happens to be the 4th memorial day of Lalgudi G. Jayaraman (LGJ), an extraordinary musician who strode like a colossus in the field of Carnatic music. As a tribute to this violin maestro, an incredibly talented group of participants from San Diego present one of his beautiful thillanas in Raga Revathi, under the guidance of Harsha Nagarajan (IndianRaga fellow - 2013). A few interesting facts about the Revathi Thillana. Special thanks to Smt. Lalgudi Viji for the support and sharing her thoughts. LGJ composed this thillana in the early 1970s, which also happened to be the first thillana in a cycle of 7 beats (Mishra Chapu) composed by him. Classical dancers, Kumari Kamala and Radha were the first to adopt this piece for dance. Only after the creation of this thillana, Revathi became a popular Raga in the Carnatic circles. Rare phrases of Revathi without "Pa" (like RR, MM, NN, RR,) can be observed in this thillana. Contrasting shades of Revathi are captured vividly in the Lyrics followed by the Jathis - while the lyrics evokes pathos, the following jathis are grand and vibrant, making it ideal for dances. #Lalgudi90 To participate in a Raga Jam, apply at indianraga.com/ragajam/ Raga Labs are city-based collaborations that bring together the best musicians and dancers to collaborate on high quality music videos viewed by millions of people globally.
