AVALI BODHINI - A Deluge of Javalis

Javalis are striking compositions of light and pleasing nature. With their lilting gait and exquisite melody, Javalis have secured a prominent place in dance and music concerts. The underlying theme of Javalis is ‘Sringara Rasa’ depicting the Nayaka-Nayaki bhava.

Prof. T.R. Subramanyam, a musician and musicologist par excellence, is scholarly and original in his approach to music. He is a multi linguist and has a wide repertoire of songs. He is known for his mastery over Laya and his skill in rendering Ragam Tanam Pallavi is unrivalled. T.R.S, as he is popularly known, retired from the University of Delhi where he was a Professor in the Department of Music. As a teacher, he is unmatched for his enormous patience and extensive knowledge and is highly respected by all students of music. T.R.S. has presented 12 outstanding Javalis in this DVD. He has aesthetically sketched crisp raga alapanas for each of these Javalis bringing out the beauty and essence of each raga both in the alapana as well as the Javalis. These concert-worthy Javalis are a priceless possession for all Musicians and Students of music.

Lyrics for the Javalis have been given in English, Tamil, Telugu and Kanada in the free booklet.
