 Although we are still in November, I guess it's time to think
 about it.
  In my opinion, it has to be one of the following songs:
  -  Dhire dhire pyar ko (PHOOL AUR KANTE)
  - Pehla nasha( JO JEETA WOHI SIKANDAR)
  - Socheinge tumhein pyar (DEEWANA)
  - Kitna pyar tumse karte hein (EK LADKA EK LADKI)

  What's your opinion?
  I'll be very glad to hear from you.

Organization: CSIRO, Div. of Mathematics & Statistics, Melbourne, Vic., AUSTRALI
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 1992 03:16:32 GMT


I wonder if there is anyone out there who knows the full lyrics of the
excellent composition by Gopala Krishna Bharati:

      ennEramum undan sannidhiyilE nAn
      ragA:  dEvagAndhAri 

I know the lyrics for most of the song.
   The anu pallavi goes:  tennan cholai...
   The first charanam goes:  dishai enganum pugazhum...

These are not the problem areas.  The problem is the second charanam.
I have a tape of KVNarayanaswamy, in which he has provided an excellent
rendition of this song.  Unfortunately, as is his wont, most (if not
all) the lyrics in the second charanam are completely `chewed' up in a
very KVNesque way!  

I haven't heard any other renditions of this song.  If anyone is aware
of any other attempts, I'd like to know.  Most singers of dEvagAndhari
seem to prefer the more popular kshirasAgarA.

Thanks in advance for any help.

	To add a personal note on this topic, my father and my uncles and
aunts grew up in Mylapore, Madras during the later part of the above 
mentioned period  and it seems that they used to go past Kotisvara Iyer's 
house every day on the way to school. They have seen him sit in front of 
the house (in the "thinnai") and sing for hours (just him alone without 
any accompaniments). In their opinion at least, for his talent and 
contribution to the music, he was not that well recognised by his 
contemporaries.

He said that Lord Ganesha is the one who is considered an expert on "Charma

was the great Drum Player. Any thoughts? Is it possible to list the
associations of various instruments with various Gods? Of the top of my head
I can come up with the following

	Krishna - Flute
	Nandi/Ganesh - Drums
	Saraswathi - veena
	Narada - singing/tumburu?

Any opinions?

dhunibhinnashadjam is not a creation of muttaiAh bhAgavatar. It is the
the equivalent of the melakarta "dhenukA" in the asampUrNa mela paddhati.
There is a muttusvAmI dIkShitar kriti in this rAga and
also another kriti by PonnaiAh Pillai -- a member of the Tanjore
quartet -- in which he pays homage to his gurU, muttusvAmI dIkShitar; it
starts off as "shrI guruguha svAmiki ..."

In the nomenclature introduced by GovindAcArya (the "kanakAngI-ratnAngI" system),
there are a few deviations from the "katapayAdi" rule; this rule, incidentally,
is a very old rule and has been used in other places too. There is a shloka/
sentence from Vararuci's writings that explains this rule.

Anyway, the deviations occur when there is a conjunct consonant; according to
Vararuci, the second part of the consonant is the one that should be taken
into account for the "sankhya". However, in GovindAcArya's nomenclature, 
sometimes the first part is taken into account and sometimes the second part.

e.g. in the case of cakravAkam, the sankhya is worked out as follows:
	ca --> 6
	kra --> 1 (taking the (i)k into account)
therefore, the mela number is 16, the reverse of 61.

However, in the case of ratnAngI, 
	ra --> 2
	tna --> 0 (taking the na into account)
therefore, the mela number is 02, the reverse of 20.

     Sathguru Sri.Thyagaraja sang this song when he had the Dharshan of Rama 
together with Viswamithra and LakshmaNa(as he wished)after sucessfully 
completing his one lakh Rama NaamaavaLi(as told by the Divine Sage Naaradha).No
wonder he gives a warm welcome to Sri Rama like `ra ra'.This raga is generally 
used to indicate high knowlwedge and intellectuality.One may recall Purandhara 
Dasa starting  off his music life with this Raga.
Another similar song of St.Thyagaraja is the `Ra Ra Maa Intiki'(come to my hou-
se)in the raga Asaavaeri.He sang his song when he finds his lost idol of Rama 
in  the River Cauvery.Some people mistkingly sing this song as `Ra Rama Intiki'
(This is what I heard thro' Late Needaamanghalam Krishnamoorthy Bhaaghvathar).

Hi,

I am relatively new to this Bboard.  I find several interesting
articles being posted here, which are very informative, esp. to
novices like me.  I would like to know whether there is any
archive for the previous mails which were posted on the net.  I
think I can find a lot of interesting mails there.  If there
is any ftp site from where I can get info. about raga lakshanas
etc please post it on the net.

I once again request the knowledgeble netters to post the raga
lakshanas and famous songs ( with composer's name & if possible
the saahityam ) in as many ragas as possible.  That would make
novices like me stop gazing with awe and start learning from the
fundamentals.  Hope my request is heeded.  I am willing to wait !
And from a few other postings I learn that there are a lot more
out there who share this view.

Keep your discussions continuing in the current vein, but also keep
feeding us with more basic material !  Thanks a lot  !
