AlOchanaamR^itaM

young-india Our call is to young India. It is the young who must be the builders of the new world. - not those who accept the competitive individualism, the capitalism or the materialistic communism of the West as India's future ideal, not those who are enslaved to old religious formulas and cannot believe in the acceptance and transformation of life by the spirit, but all who are free in mind and heart to accept a completer truth and labour for a greater ideal ... It is with a confident trust in the spirit that inspires us that we take our place among the standard-bearers of the new humanity that is struggling to be born amidst the chaos of a world in dissolution, and of the future India, the greater India of the rebirth that is to rejuvenate the mighty outworn body of the ancient Mother.

- Sri Aurobindo (India's Rebirth, pp. 154)

Assorted Tyagaraja Kritis

In this section, I present a huge collection of tyagaraja kritis rendered by various musicians as part of various concerts/LPs/cassettes spanning over 50 years. This was painstakingly collected by a gentleman and came into my hands. The concert details such as date and in some cases, the artist names are not listed. If you know them please post them on the archive's discussion forum.

NEW! There is a section called Contributions from Visitors like you in my karnatak section where I started putting online concerts that visitors uploaded to my website. Enjoy them too!

A highlight is "Sruti-based tradition of singing Tyagaraja kritis", contributed by Sri B.Raman. Many of the popular ragas like nATa and kritis like j~nAnamosagarAdA sound very different. Here is Raman's posting in our discussion forum giving more info on this style of singing.
