Sarasadala Nayane / Saramathi / Adi / Muthiah Bhagavathar / R K Srikantan

Krithi: Sarasadala Nayane Ragam: Saramathi Thalam: Adi Composer: Muthiah Bhagavathar Vocal: R K Srikantan R. K. Srikantan (Rudrapatna Krishnashastri Srikantan) was one of the most revered Carnatic vocalists of the 20th century, born on 14 January 1920 in Rudrapatna, Karnataka, a village renowned for its rich musical heritage. Born into a musically inclined Sankethi Brahmin family, he received his initial training from his father, R. Krishnashastri, a noted gamaka exponent, and was further guided by his brother R. K. Venkatarama Shastri and eminent musicians such as Veene Subbanna and Chowdiah. Deeply influenced by stalwarts like Semmangudi Srinivasa Iyer and Ariyakudi Ramanuja Iyengar, Srikantan developed a classical style marked by shruti shuddham (pitch purity), sahitya shuddham (clarity of lyrics), and strict adherence to tradition. He began performing at a young age and later became associated with All India Radio, eventually settling in Bangalore in 1954, where he continued to perform, teach, and promote Carnatic music for several decades. Even into his nineties, he remained musically active, earning immense respect for his scholarship and dedication. Over his illustrious career, he received numerous honors including the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award, the Sangeetha Kalanidhi title from the Music Academy, Madras, and the Padma Bhushan from the Government of India. He was also a devoted teacher whose disciples included prominent musicians such as M. S. Sheela, and his musical legacy was carried forward by his children, including R. S. Ramakanth and Rathnamala Prakash. R. K. Srikantan passed away on 17 February 2014 in Bangalore at the age of 94, leaving behind a lasting impact on the Carnatic music tradition. Vocal Support: R S Ramakanth Violin: K V S. Vinay Mridangam: Mahalingam Santhanakrishnan The song is a simple prayer seeking the grace of Goddess Saraswathi, lovingly praising her lotus-like beauty, supreme wisdom, mastery over music and all forms of knowledge, and her compassionate nature in granting learning, blessings, and the fulfillment of devotees’ wishes. Pallavi Sarasadala nayane sharade amba Anupallavi Sarasa sambhava jaye sangitadi sakala vidyalaye Charanam Karadhrta pustaka kamanIyanane kamita phalade kachhapi nirate harikeshadi akhila surarchite ananda hrdaye adarinchu maye ------------------------------------------------------ Meaning: O Mother Sharada, whose eyes are as beautiful and soft as lotus petals. O consort of the lotus-born (Brahma), You are the abode of music and all branches of knowledge and learning. You who hold a book in your hand, with a charming and graceful face; You who grant the desired fruits (boons) to devotees; You who delight in playing the veena (kacchapi). You who are worshipped by Lord Shiva (Harikesha) and all the gods; O embodiment of blissful compassion, kindly protect and bless me. ------------------------------------------------------ DISCLAIMER: These songs have been uploaded solely for listening pleasure and as an archive to preserve Carnatic music.
