Shri Sadagopan's Music Collection ...

[Guest guest]

Dear bhAgavathAs:

 

A few weeks back Shri Sadagopan had written about his wish to raise money

for

Shri Ranganatha Kainkaryam through the disemmination and distribution of his

music collection.

 

I was one of the volunteers fortunate enough to be chosen for this holy

task.

What I do not understand is how a person could think of simply giving away

such and eclectic collection of Carnatic Music. I commend shri Sadagopan

and

fall at his thiruvadi to teach me this art of thyajyam, a real life example

of

sacrifice as reflected in the Lord's charama shlOkam:

 

"sarva dharmAn prithyajya ..."

 

Last week Shri Sadagopan gave me approximately 400 + tapes. I will over the

next few weeks be cataloguing the tapes and publishing the catalog as I go

along. I have permission to distribute the tapes as follows:

 

Commercial Tapes - No copying. To be sold as is. Hence only the copies I

have will be available for purchase.

 

Tapes distributed by Organizations - Same as above.

 

Personal Tapes of Shri Sadagopan - Based on resources available, I may be

able

to copy these tapes and distribute them.

 

Sale of tapes is purely on first come- first served basis, as the tapes are

indeed eclectic and rare to find. I will be distributing only those tapes

where recording quality is good. The collections include full concerts of

artists such as Ariyakkudi Ramanuja Iyengar, B Rajam Iyer, Musiri, etc.

 

Please look out for further postings.

 

Regards,

 

Raja Krishnasamy
