Guest guest Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 Dear Shakti Sadhana group: I received this from a friend of Devipuram the other day and thought I would share it with you all. It is about an interesting new recording that places the work of the great Carnatic classical composer (and Sri Vidya upasak extraordinaire) Muthuswami Dikshitar (1776-1835), into lovely and unexpected musical settings. For a sample song and further information, read on. My friend wrote: ********** " I wanted to share with you this beautiful music link/info. The song is a beautiful composition of the legendary composer Muthusvami Dikshitar. Known for his tantric/Shakta compositions Dikhshitar's Navavarana compositions are legendry. However, this album brings to light Dikshitar's " global " compositions where he has composed Sanskrit lyrics set to Celtic tones. Listen to the song link below and you will get the idea. Kanniks, the composer of this album, is a good friend and also somebody Guruji is interested in establishing links with for future Devipuram projects. His 12 year old daughter Vidita is the lead/main singer in this album. The song Kamlamba is, to me, absolutely beautiful! I thought of sharing this with you with the thought that in case you think it worthwhile, you can share this with your Shakti Sadhana Mailing list. " ********** Well I listened, and I think it's worthwhile sharing. Hope you enjoy as well. The link is question is here: http://cincivoice.blogspot.com/ Aim MAtangyai NamaH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 I finally settled down to finally listen to this. Needless to say, I was impressed. I think the 12 year old who sang the sample song has potential to become a talented music artist for future songs. Jai Ma!
