In the third segment of the popular Manodharma series, TM Krishna discusses the concept of Kalpanaswarams in great detail. He goes on to address issues of mentally preparing oneself for a performance. And later, in answering a question, talks about the concept of shrutis.
Krishna was accompanied by Akkarai Subhalakshmi on violin, Arunprakash Krishnan on mridangam and Chandrasekara Sharma on ghatam. Tanpura support was provided by Krishna's student Vignesh Krishnamurthy.

"Being an Artist is to be in an Acute State of Awareness".👌❤️
What a position you have taken!

[@swarajyam_d4119]

🎉❤Krishna garu, we love your team. No one can play violin than Akkirai subha Lakshmi ❤....

[@HareeshHari-w4p]

പറയാൻ വാക്കുകൾ ഇല്ല.... കൃഷ്ണ സാർ സംഗീതം കൊണ്ട് നമ്മളെ എല്ലാം വേറെ ഒരു ലോകത്തിലേക്കു കൊണ്ടുപോകും......
സുമ്മാ പടെടാ....✌👌. കൂടെവേ പാട് 😍😍

[@SivasankarSEvoor]

Look at the way he place the whole idea of Performance. Dear Subalakshmi, when you play the violin you are interpreting the instrument in two ways,
1. With Your Hands.
2. With your Eyes.

[@sarbarighosh173]

TM Krishna is not only a talented performer but a very good trainer too.

How like a snake charmer he makes his voice dance, and maneuver around.... magical

Name of keethana he sang?

[@Chandra806]

TMK is a genius. He is way beyond SKNs and other awards. Brings in relevance and contemporariness to Carnatic music

[@aishwaryaiyer8911]

Such an honesty in mentioning about the talam... The flow will guide the person to the point of entry... Very well said.... Excellent demonstration...

[@kb3dow]

I love this guy, so down to earth and such a passionate communicator. I wish I could be his student (even though I have no formal music background)

[@rdb2349]

I try to see all his performances....he is amazing.....

[@ramanathansubbarathnam6398]

Oh, what a kalpanaswaram and flow of swarams. Fantastic. Akkarai is superb

[@amulyayeduguri3309]

Akkarai has this super human ability to reproduce insanely long string of swaras with accuracy.

[@The_Svara]

wow not only he is a great singer he is an amazing orator as well hats off sir would love to meet u in person and sing with u thanks.

[@swarajyam_d4119]

Since their childhood the artists practice... get better day by day.. concert to concert...

[@sweetnsour2722]

She is my favourite violenist any day. Gifted lady

[@tns7656]

Krishna, you are a great inspiration.

[@xshashankx]

Waoo!!
Swara is a moving body in which its fixed position is one possibility!!!!
Its ridiculous to hit fixed pitch and do up amd down!!!!
My god ,this is confusing me!!!
I play sitar and i do that only... Hit Ma and do up and down.....
Please Kindly elaborate more....

[@tejasnair3399]

Shashank Singh you and veena players do have that limitation let’s say, which esraj players like myself, singers, and violinists do not have. But when you play the murki SNRS in, say, tilak kamod, the essential identity of the phrase rotates around S, although you’ve pulled from N.

[@vikramprakash]

Absolutely fantastic!

[@vigneshr5555]

Name of keerthan he sang?

[@sanjeevramabhadran]

Well said about the overstated importance of a “measurable” 22 shrutis.

[@ramasubramoniamr1384]

Just finished watching the first two parts.. This dropped in just in time

[@vigneshr5555]

Stupid question... Repeating is not Manodharma...

[@venkatlax]

Mood is ok, Ambience is ok ..it should have been music all the way.

[@YashRakeshGawade]

Sir, this is a lecture - demonstration, not a concert.

[@rdb2349]

His voice is divine but unfortunately his views are very Tamas...
