TM Krishna: Raga Yamuna Kalyani
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 бер 2018
- TM Krishna performed the ever-popular "Krishna Nee Begane" by Vyasatirtha much to the delight of the attending audience at the FEA-curated KARNATIC MODERN II concert in Mumbai.
He was accompanied by Akkarai Subhalakshmi on violin, Arunprakash Krishnan on mridangam and Guru Prasad on ghatam. Tanpura support was provided by Rithvik Raja and Surabhi Seshadri.
I typed this out as a reply to a comment, but I thought I'll post it as a main comment too.
The thing about TM Krishna, even though he says that he has no bhakti and all, one can clearly see his intimate absorption into the music - which is the same as the deity. It is said that the divine name and the deity are one and the same. TM himself says that he is more interested in the sound of the words he's singing instead of going into the meaning. So infact he's actually reaching the same Divine Source through a different path that's all. I think that whether knowingly or unknowingly, he's definitely experiencing some divine bliss through it. While some others approach the Divine through the mental image of his form, TM approaches the pure sound, the pure Nada, what is called as Nadabrahma without any meaning or form associated with it. The Absolute Sound. TM Krishna could be called a Nadopasaka, a worshipper of Sound. In a way he's also an Advaita Vedantin.
I know you mean well. But let me tell you that as an atheist AND as someone who has no hangups about devotional music, your post was quite condescending. It is as if you are explaining to the mob, he is all right even if he is not superstitious like us.
I couldn’t have said it better!!! Very well written!!!
@@nagarajanv6381 As an atheist, I don't find the above comment condescending at all. It is that person's interpretation of the music in their own framework of thought. I think atheists can do with a bit less of self-centrism, which I think plagues us as we start the journey towards atheism.
How does it matter what he says. Look at how he sings. Foof. Beautiful
And if he is denouncing the Vedas then so be it.
ತಾನೂ ಮೈ ಮರೆತು..... ನಮ್ಮನ್ನೂ.....ರಾಗ ಸಾಹಿತ್ಯ ದ ಸಿಹಿಗಡಲಲ್ಲಿ....ತೇಲಿಸುವ ಇಂತಹ ಕಲಾವಿದರು ತುಂಬಾ ಅಪರೂಪ...
Krishna in your singing you end up being the song itself. loveyou and as an octogenerian bless you too.
Brijinder Rattan go

Krishna nee begana baro at its best.... Heights of manodharma !!! BEAUTIFUL 😍😍
வெகு அழகான பாவத்துடன் இதை பாடி உள்ளீர்கள்.😭எங்கள் கண்களில் கண்ணீர்.
Transcendental calling -- perhaps yes. The great sage Vyasatirtha, it is said, got the murthy of Krishna from a Greek ship captain, who begged the sage to receive something. The peaceful waving of Vyasatirtha's angavastra (upper cloth) that he was drying in air, made the violent ocean calm and saved the ship and the captain was grateful to the sage for saving his ship, shipmates and lives. Vyasatirtha, it is said, smiled and said "what do I need from you, I am a sanyasi who gave up everything". But upon captains insistance, Vyasatirtha agreed and took three mounds of sand, in which were three Murthis. One of them is that of Krishna installed in Udupi. It is also said that these three mounds came from the original sunken city of Dwarka and belonged to that time period. This is why Vyasatirtha exclaims "Udupi Sri Krishna please come back soon" He is the one who came back from Dwapara Yuga to our Kali Yuga. The song is Meditative - yes, Transcendental - yes since it transcends such a great time period in world history. Thanks to Krishna as always, for his soulful singing
It looks like he transcended into another world calling / looking for Lord. Perfect, pleasing and genuine presentation of the song. My grateful salutations. 👍🏻👌🏼👌🏼👍🏾👍🏽👍🏾👍🏾👍🏻👌🏼👍🏾👍🏽👍🏽👍🏾👍🏾👍🏻👍🏾👍🏾👌🏼👍🏾👍🏽👍🏻👌🏼👍🏾🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
There are several places here on UA-cam where I might have written this comment about TM Krishna's music. But this song, and this version of it (and there is at least one other version of it by Krishna that is relevant here), seem like a good context.
I have rarely seen Karnatic musicians so moved by what they're singing--not just the music, but also the lyrics--as TM Krishna. While comparing Karnatic with Hindustani music, Kishori Amonkar once told me that Karnatic has preserved the spirituality of Indian music better. The dense and fixed lyrics, she had said, were proof against wholesale erosion. I sometimes wonder if the lyrics preserved religiousity rather than spirituality. I like to think TM Krishna gently nudges the 'religious' in the direction of the spiritual. What is 'sanathana' cannot tread any other path, surely?
What is the affect that we interpret as the 'spiritual' when we listen to music like this, and makes a musician like Krishna sometimes stop singing, helplessly swayed by the immensity of its purport? Perhaps, it emerges from the fact that through this listening and this singing we have named the nameless, made of utter joy a real practice, and made abstract objects like (unconditional) love suddenly appear within reach. What else can explain the uncanny way in which such an affect takes hold of us?
I cannot but record here the experience of sitting in a class conducted by the great musician Puranam Purushottama Sastry in which I was the fortunate victim of such an affect once. The song he taught in that class was Tyagaraja's well-known kriti "Ninuvina namadendu" in the raga Navarasa Kannada. Having grown up with the Bombay Sisters' version of it, I was unprepared for the tears that streamed down the cheeks of everyone in that suburban room as the class progressed and the sangathis piled up. I didn't find this happen in his public concerts, but the ease with which he sang through the tears on that day was awe-inspiring. I have never had the courage to listen to that song again.
TM Krishna is lucky something much larger than himself--and larger perhaps than his imagination--has just discovered him!
Such an insightful comment. I've always believed that Krishna is a devout musician.
So movingly and eloquently stated, sir. Thank you so much for this.
I think tm Krishna is most suitable for singing Hindustani classical music
T M Krishna is a legend. 👌
கிருஷ்ணா நீ பேகனே பாரோ
பேகனே பாரோ முகவன்னே தோரோ (கிருஷ்ணா)
கிருஷ்ணா நீ வேகமாய் வாராய்
வேகமாய் வாராய் திருமுகத்தை காட்டுவாய் (கிருஷ்ணா)
காலா லந்திகே கெஜ்ஜே நீலத பாவோலி
நீலவர்ணத நாட்யா வாடுத பாரோ (கிருஷ்ணா)
கால்களில் கொலுசோடும் கைகளில் ரத்தின வளையோடும்
நீல வர்ணத்தில் இருப்பவனே நாட்டியம் ஆடியவாறே வாராய் (கிருஷ்ணா)
உடியல்லி ஊடுகெஜ்ஜே பெரளல்லி உங்குர
கொரளோளு ஹாகித வைஜயந்தி மாலே (கிருஷ்ணா)
இடுப்பில் ஒட்டியாணமும் விரல்களில் மோதிரமும்
கழுத்தில் வைஜயந்தி மாலையும் அணிந்தவனே (கிருஷ்ணா)
காசி பீதாம்பர கையல்லி கொளலூ
பூசித ஸ்ரீகந்த மையொள கிரலு (கிருஷ்ணா)
பட்டு பீதாம்பரம் அணிந்து கையில் குழலோடு
உடலெங்கும் சந்தனத்தை அணிந்தவனே (கிருஷ்ணா)
தாயிகே பாயல்லி ஜகவன்னு தோரித
ஜகதோத்தாரக நம்ம உடுப்பி ஸ்ரீ கிருஷ்ணா (கிருஷ்ணா)
தாய்க்கு வாயில் உலகத்தை காட்டிய
இந்த உலகத்தை காப்பாற்றுபவனே, உடுப்பி ஸ்ரீ கிருஷ்ணா (கிருஷ்ணா)
Have heard this rendition practicaly everyday during the lockdown. Wish I could be present in a live show. The creativity between TMK Sir and Ms Akarai Subhalakshmi is so wonderful . She is God's gift to the world of Music. Best wishes
A rare combination of Krishna and akkarai violinist. God bless them
Listening his rendition of this song about Krishna, which gives an experience our lord Krishna is also present with us to listen this music with so much of bhava, manodharma by tmk. I am lost when listening his music in all his classical music. So much of bhava and feels like divine. 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much for such a mesemrising experience,thank you uploading this beautiful video
They're all so amazing ! T N krishna that was very very beautiful ❤️
I sincerely agree with comment of metalforlife4ever. If you happen to see Sri TMK in any meeting he appears in a different look and once he steps on dais for a concert he is entirely different as if some mystic power descended on him and he enjoys through out and his musicians are immersed in a sea of divine bliss along with listeners .An atheist with out knowing becomes a theist travels by the sound and feels he lived in another world.No words to express.
First time I have heard someone doing so much improvisation in this composition. 👌👌👌👌👏👏👏👏☺🙏
Good one. Highly imaginative. The mannerisms are entertaining and heighten the thrill. The violinist and the rest of the accompaniment are enjoying the concert. Thanks.
Mr.T M Krishna sings this Krishna nee begane in a slow pitch. That seems to be one among his own style and is very sweet and inducing devine bhakti! in listeners!👍👍👍👍👍👍
T M K takes listeners along with him to explore the music and immerses them into the river of melodious sound.
Captivating as always!
Ohh my god! What a magical voice!💫💫
Sri ram will come down to listen to this. Divinity
Excellent Sir, God blessed you are to take us so close to blissfulness and tranquility thorough your singing..Atheist or not is no matter ,you have placed Krishna in our heart so to cherish ❤❤❤
Krishna....You are amazing...
What a performance!
tmk enjoys repeating his name time and time again.
Goosebumpss
I felt peace inside me.
May all the visible and invisible powers and positivity with you.
Perhaps i understand what you mean when you say you felt 'peace' inside... but, for me, TMK is someone who always questions the standardized structures of music, challenges it, reinterprets it, and re-scripts boundaries... He's too original to evoke peace... You never can be at peace when you hear him...
Amazing 🙏
Excellent sir, ❤ touching.
Beautiful
No words to express 👍
God bless you ! ! ! ! ! !
🙏🙏🙏
Sir hatsoff you, namaskaram
super.......
Only Akkarai can do, atleast little bit, as violinist ! For TMK no violin & Mrudamgam are irrelevant. Super 🙏
The title can change as ' Krishna nee begane...Raga Yamuna Kalyani
So much bhaava 🙂
Super
❤😇🙏
🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹🙏🙏🙏
Amutham
truth is here...
🙏
Amazing performance 💐😍👏🙌

Did you see that tm krishna! at 4.53rd min you are at conscious with Lord and me as well tthank youu... violin girl just shocked!!..
Violin girl??
The lady is Akkarai Subhalakshmi
That's a wonderful moment to witness!
Fantastic, Super, But I have a complaint. He is not allowing the Violin & Mrudangam ( Packamelam). to accompany him. May be because of my lack of knowledge in music. I am only a good listener.
The guy in red kurta at 6:06 lol.
He's Rithvik
Raja. Performer and student of TMK.
I am impressed by Sow. Subbalakshmi control of her not laughing at Sri Krishna's too much actions.
Beautiful.. Only thing, pleading Krishna, very very Slowly to come Fast!😊
But it has be slow only, when you plead a person, like... pleeeease.. 😊
❤❤❤
ragsanoor very well said
ragsanoor :))))
Krishna is calling himself - ಬೇಗನೆ ಬಾರೋ!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
At 9:31, it looks like he's actually calling out to Krishna. :')
I doubt as he is an atheist ;)
@@chinmayb8847 Well, music is god manifest. That has it's own power. In this country, we are very clever. We found a dimension of God for everything.
No its not. Anybody with some tricks can fake anything. Somebody there's to believe it also.
There is no religion and atheism in art
Why should the singer crying for y.kalyani? Alas, omg.
Maiolage + amma , not maiolu + gamma :/
Artists are known creatively feel free to sacrifice lyrics esp if they are not native to the language.
This is a musician who not only excels as a musician but lives and thinks his music - he doesn’t buy the orthodox notion that it is a hothouse plant just to be yield pleasure for some people.
Excellent rendition, though dozens of singers have presented this composition. By the way, is he the same person who writes columns for The Hindu with leftist leanings?
Gururaj BN...He wrote many articles about many things especially about the society and politics and caste biased systems in the art forms
Yes he is left leaning.
My motto: Ignore what he writes, focus on what he sings!
Santhosh Rao Yes same.
He is eccentric! But he is a genius
Carnatic , not, karnataka.
This man once said in an interview that he doesn't really have bhakti & lyrics doesn't mean much to him. He gave the example of Krishna ne begane baro and said he doesn't really want to call Krishna.
Really!
In contrast, I thought that he encouraged others to look into the meaning of the lyrics...
Music itself calls Krishna and even takes the ecstatic singer to him . No need of any liric
That's the thing about TM Krishna, even though he says that, one can clearly see his intimate absorption into the music - which is the same as the deity. It is said that the divine name and the deity are one and the same. TM himself says that he is more interested in the sound of the words he's singing instead of going into the meaning. So infact he's actually reaching the same Divine Source through a different path that's all. I think that whether knowingly or unknowingly, he's definitely experiencing some divine bliss through it. While some others approach the Divine through the mental image of his form, TM approaches the pure sound, the pure Nada, what is called as Nadabrahma. The Absolute Sound. TM Krishna could be called a Nadopasaka, a worshipper of Sound.
I prefer the t m Krishna who used to sit on stage with sri churnam on his forehead and bhakti in his heart. A singer with tremendous knowledge and technical ability. Please come back to sanatana dharma.
lol please don't. you already chill bruh
TMK sir the greatest thing you do is proving these sanatanis wrong !
@minesh Mathew also your ideologies!peace✌️
Just try to learn Nirgunadhara in Sanatana Dharma you will be able to know what he is.
Keep your thoughts to yourself please
🙏🙏🙏
Beautiful
