TMK is easily one of the finest Carnatic vocalists of this generation. I ended up spending the full 90 minutes watching without a pause. Something that almost never happens anymore. If anybody has a link to the Nera nammitti he refers to midway, please do post. Also real interesting to see the difference between the little snippet of Mathe here, as compared to the Mathe during a Bangalore concert few years back. However, ultimately as a total outsider, who is clueless about CM politics, accepted traditions, norms, protocols etc etc etc… I believe there is just one reality. That he should do whatever he needs to do, to keep his music alive for himself. It does not matter if he concludes with a varnam, sings in a mosque or a moving train or with transgenders. All that matters is that we continue to get an opportunity to experience an alternate reality through the magic of his voice.
While respecting your point of view & accepting it, I wanted to put forth my pov as I consider him a mediocre singer who is good for lecture demo rather than a full fledged concert. Issues I have is sruthi, unmelodious, pronunciation, bhavam etc. What I give him credit for is his technical knowhow. His politics is better left unspoken
Jai TMK sir. I am a surgeon and have very little knowledge of music, but when ever I see you sing or speak, I learn so much about music, including the strong thoughts band convictions you have and my English vocabulary also has improved.
This was an engrossing monologue and revealed (to me) both this man's obsessions and hatreds, which come off as personal sensitivities and flights of conscience. It is a very polished narrative with no loose ends but a deeply self serving one in the end. His thoughts don't come from a social and political epiphany like he claims. More likely they stem from his own shadow side - guilt, shame - and to compensate for this, anger and exhibitionism! Such people are deeply problematic and we see them all around us today in India. They are hell bent on destroying various institutions but not building anything worthy and wholesome in their place other than spouting empty feel good phrases like freedom and justice for all .. What a waste of talent !!
I have viewed and listened to Shri TM Krishna non stop during this course of video presentation. I have attended to Shri Jiddu KRISHNAMURTHY at Vasant Vihar about freedom in your thinking and in a way your life. I have been a great admirer of TMK's music. His thoughts are way ahead, far advanced and People will see what he is addressing many years later. 👌🌹
Outstanding genius in MA now in social platform with his intent for music delivered strongly for the people as well as musicians Probably time to reveal for the people who you are and where you are. Go ahead with your inspirational ideas to prove you are a Genius whatever obstacles you face from musical fraternity whether right or wrong. God bless you abundantly with your progressive thoughts.
My goodness, this is very insightful to watch. I am in love with his personality, character and values. It was deeply moving from his ideas about music to his social awareness. The way he constructs the music around a word and how his brain works in doing so is nothing short of extraordinary. Being involved to make classical music accessible to every class, gender, caste and whatnot was amazing. Such an incredible being.
I always knew TMK as a brilliant musician in the Carnatic music scene but I was not aware of the personality behind that magnificent voice. This video was such an eye-opener in every sense of the word. What a brilliant thinker, philosopher, inquirer. His thoughts resonated so much with me. Honestly this is not some high funda ideology rather the essence of what he is trying to say is basic humanity, equality and acceptance and the fact that speaking about this openly is distasteful to some shows a deep-rooted denial against progress in itself. Needless to say, it is not common that we see an insider taking a step back and reflecting upon what has been inculcated and conditioned by a certain community and then start to reform and bring positive changes to it. It requires grit, an undying spirit and sincerity. It is high time that more insiders start to challenge norms and societal constructs and reinvent the idea of Carnatic classical music to cater to the masses and work on the idea of inclusivity in all forms. It is everybody's social responsibility to be able to make music accessible to anybody who wholeheartedly wants it. Music cannot evolve through stagnancy; it must flow. Definitely not going to miss any of his future endeavors. This man is just pure magic. Please do continue the series! Such an amazing initiative by MOPA to bring together the brightest and most inquisitive minds.
I am left speechless. Many questions ,thoughts have arisen . Thanks to Krishna . Thank you Savita Narasimhan for bringing these series to us . It only enables me to propel my work in a direction of questionality , research and thought .
Positive disruption in anything is good and history will remember Krishna's different approach to Carnatic music and the way it is presented and celebrated. Key changes he has made that I like are - making it gender neutral, importance to instruments like the nadaswaram (and artists), making the concert format less structured and more spontaneous, keeping instruments as main and vocal as accompaniment, taking Carnatic music to the nook and cranny of TN, making it appealing in mixed formats, making it an approachable form of art. As a singer, listener, contemporary, proud of Krishna's initiatives wrt music. Way to go and more power to our Krishna.
Something I cannot fathom is that he is hard-core in whatever he believes. His heart to sing us the same that reachout to the poor artists. The open talk, progressive thinking, fearless conversation, controversial issues... combination of all, and all given sane attention. So good to listen to you.
An amazing and a unique production. Introspective, honest to the core, endearing and heart warming all at the same time. In a fragmented world such as ours where labels overtake life, such articulations provoke alternative thought and not only is it refreshing, it is also healing. Kudos to MOpA for illuminating the thought process behind this seeker.
I don't have words to describe this genius of a musician and the human being. The presentation is so well done that the evolution of the present TMK is very well depicted. The talk is very very enlightening and makes you look inside you. Not as a musician alone but more as a human being. What he attributes to music world is equally applicable to your day to day interaction with the society too. One of finest musicians ever been on this side of the Universe.
TMK is certainly a maverick. Constantly experimenting himself. Evolving or not is a moot point. Again it is a question of perception. Beyond all these he's gifted to have got a great voice. He does not like to be always patronised but wants to be questioned. It's two way process.
Loaded with questions that need attention from the society at large. The honesty with which these questions are put across is deeply disturbing and rightly so. Thanks to the team for making this available
Simple superb conversation. I like TMK for what he is. A simply intelligent, exemplary vocalist of the era. No where can someone come to him. What are controversies before this legendary carnatic icon just ashes isn't it?
I have been a fan of TM Krishna since forever, and even now, there's just one word I can say - INSPIRATION. One of the finest, most thought provoking artists! Thanks a bunch for this 🙏🏻
Watched this episode again today. Rewatching it,was a completely beautiful experience. The aspect about singing with Jogappa, where in ,Shri TMKrishna expresses that it was a relationship between artists, beyond gender. 🙏🙏🙏🙏. Thanks MOPA for bringing out these episodes. Human minds are complex 😊. Helps to understand the various facets of the human mind. Regards
This is a masterclass by TM Krishna on music, you could even say art in general and mainly on society's 'norms' and 'conditioning' and what it does to certain things they consider 'aesthetic'. He has redefined and enlightened me on that word! Coming from a conservative music setup and talking about normalisation of sexual orientation (oh this topic by itself is too taboo for mylapore mamas😂) and other artforms and also understanding the privilege that he derives from his gender and caste is just awesome!
Very very interesting. He opens his heart on so many issues which were and still are there and have to be sorted out . Many know about these but do not have the guts to give words to the thoughts worried what others would think of the person and not the basic issues .Hats off to TMK. He wants marginalized people who are many, also to be brought into the mainstream .Sort of revolution which will happen, don't know when?
Whoa! It is not "notes to myself (TM Krishna)"! It is his thoughts and notes to us, everyone! One can love him or hate him as a musician, but he stands tall as a good human being! Bravo, for being so thoughtful and sharing the thoughts with us! Anything that divide the society is wrong in the civilized world and should be condemned! Art is the last place where there should be division, love and humanity are the core values of any art!
I kind of agree with TMK here. I grew up the US. I like both carnatic music and hindustani music. people would always tell me that i would get confused if i tried to learn both styles of music. This is not the case because I later found out that both carnatic music and hindustani music came from the samaveda. in india, for a very very long time, there was only one system of music. This type of music was called "dhrupad" and it was sung in the palace courts of the kings and it very closely resembles carnatic music. dhrupads are the highest form of music because they are all songs on god. they are sung with a instrument called the rudra veena, because it has a lot of bass and the pakawaj, which is similar to the mridangam. When singing a dhrupad, a long alapana, called a "nom tom"alapana was sung before the composition was sung. for a very long time in india, dhrupad was the style that was sung. The great tansen's guru, swami haridas, was actually one of the disciples of sangeetha pitamaha sree purandaradasa. due to Islamic, persian, and arabic invasion in the northern part of india, sometime in the 18th and 19th centuries, a split happened and the northern part of india became known as "hindustan" hence it was hindustani music. This is when "khayal gayaki" came into the picture in hindustani music. "khayal" is an urdu word for imagination, thought, concept, idea... And this is what is mostly seen in hindustani recitals today. there are two types of "khayal" ""bada khayal" and " chota khayal" " "bada khayal " is synonymous to "vilambit" which means slower tempo and slower and longer tala cycles are taken to sing "vilambit" such as "ektal" a 12 beat cycle, jhoomra, a 14 beat cycle, tilwada, a 16 beat cycle, teental, 16 beat cycle. "chota khayal" could be in mdhyama kala or duritha kala tempo, therefore talas such as teental or ektal canbe utilized. the southern part of india was not too much influenced by persians and islamic influence and the southern part of india retained the old tradition and that tradition of music came to be known as carnatic music.
Love love love this talk. Unfortunately, most artists just want to please people. They do not want to introduce 'disturbing' ideas that'll challenge their audience.
I feel sad to see critics go overboard with their barbs. His views and ideas deserve contemplation. It is this new India which feels agitated when the status quo is challenged . If it were the Chennai of the 50s 60s or even 70s, the music community may not agreed with his views but wouldn’t go berserk like this. Also got to do with the regime abd social media . Have become an intolerant society
TMK..has proved himself as a n eminent musician and a person of thought, intellect who makes you think...and ponder that music and art are beyond mere performances..
It is amazing to know artists so personally. Absolutely great work MOPA. I've always loved TMK sir's music and appreciated his stand on a lot of things. It was amazing to learn more about what he thinks about all the problems that exist but which we've accepted and ignored.
This video..is.an eye opener about T.M.K.'s universal approach and empathy for the down trodden rasikas.His offering free concerts goes to prove his magnanimity and nobility and total love for music for music sake.what I feel awkward is his equating porampoku with the immortal sublime Kirthan of SANGEETHA MURTHI..SAINT THYAGARAJAR..As a person he seems to be innately simple with no airs.at all .He just can't belittle the classical compositions.no wonder such a passionate artist is shun by renowned. Sabhas and people.v.v.sad.this is the brick -bats he has received for his radical thinking which he could have easily concealed.goes to prove his detachment for mammon.and fame.
What a great joy ride this was!!! The more you go personal, it becomes universal. The more questions you ask yourself, double the question you throw at others. Art, culture, philosophy, environment, sociology, history purana and of course politics these are areas where hardly any artist of this era dare to go. I think, after Kumar Gandharv there is T M Krishna ji who dare to chanllenge himself first and others next. I think this where course and flow of history tends to take a different turn. Truly a treat to watch, listen and experience Krishna ji always. This episode sums up where for the first time Mumbai synagogue was open for all and Krishna ji performed there with his usual musical charm. That was again an experience to remember... Shekhar Deshmukh, Mumbai
QSQ; Without questioning the status quo and revolting, there is no growth in any society. That is true in music too. TMK is a maverick musician who really tries to QSQ and make changes in the society for a better world. Thank for this interview. Great listening.

Such a perfect platform to know these wonderful artists so close.. Their views, ideas..👌👌 so much genuine... &so can relate to TM sir's talk.. 🙏 just loved it.. 😍
The perception of aesthetics, beauty, and art can vary significantly from person to person and across different cultures. While there are certain universal principles of aesthetics that many people may find appealing, such as symmetry, balance, and harmony, individual preferences and cultural influences play a significant role in shaping one's perception of beauty and art. Cultural background, personal experiences, upbringing, and exposure to different forms of art can all influence how individuals perceive and appreciate aesthetics. What one person finds beautiful or artistically pleasing, another person may not necessarily share the same opinion. Furthermore, different art forms, styles, and genres can evoke varying responses from individuals based on their personal tastes and preferences. Some people may prefer classical art, while others may be drawn to contemporary or abstract art. Similarly, some may find beauty in minimalist design, while others may appreciate intricate and detailed artwork. In conclusion, while there may be some universal aspects of aesthetics that many people find appealing, the perception of beauty and art is ultimately subjective and can vary widely among individuals and cultures.
It's been a great pleasure for me as a listener to hear the journey of great artists like TMK sir...MOPA is working excellent to introduce such persons to the public....💯❤
Brilliant. I may not agree but Respect his perspective. Privilege , influence and social strata matters irrespective of what your talent is. I like the term Mylapore gang but the Alwarpet Gang is the real masters owning the industry of carnatic music. If you are ment to be something you will be that. That's all about. Its the design. Weather one likes or not thats all about it. TMK will rememberd for his 'Music' and I am his fan too, the one who has the freedom to disagree the views but like the music here and there that appeals to me.
Such a brilliant thought-provoking conversation with TMK. Great work team MOP- excellent video quality and editing and absolutely love the classic minimalist setup.
Enjoyed the candid conversation. Interesting to hear the insights of a great artist blessed with a voice that is mesmerizing, be it in singing or speaking. I am happy that the word-problematic didn't surface up too much::::::
கூந்தல் உள்ளவர் அள்ளியும் முடியலாம் அவிழ்த்தும் விடலாம். KFIல் படிக்கவும் எதிர்காலத்தை எதிர் கொள்ளவும் பின்னால் குடும்ப வசதி வாய்ப்புகள் இருந்தால்தான் நடக்கும். That too imagine sitaramasarma coming home to teach a student!
With all due respect...has TMK listened to and spent some quality time with MahaaMaestro T.K.Ramamurthy Pillai's "Carnatic Jazz" album released in 1965? If he hasn't, a quantum leap awaits him there for a metamorphosis from incremental false starts!
This is so unconventional Reflections which was never bothered to be seen.,, Very happy to see "singha Kutty"..lion kid...please consider the request of getting padma subramanyam ...totally enthralling...it's absolutely great series...bringing great people, things, ideas, which is associated with the most beautiful world "Art"...thanks in all abundance...
Love his music but not of his other ideas. After hearing this nothing to comment adversely. But something about Sri thiyagaraja said. His was a different plane and couldn t be understood from different plane.
Very insightful and good to hear how the old masters have impacted his life and i fully endorse his views about removing the stuffiness in Carnatic music. YACM ... more power to them. Carnatic music is a treasure that I am happy to witness is like the saree,...traditional but yet expressing art and beauty. Thanks to the youngsters.
He is a Bharati... At new version... Happy to hear his autobiography.. Such a mesmerizing ideology.. The way he learnt, analysis, knowledge he is creating a new path.. Ad Tamil version of carnatic.. Is the most wanted epic of long long years... Thank you Sir.. TMK

TMK is easily one of the finest Carnatic vocalists of this generation. I ended up spending the full 90 minutes watching without a pause. Something that almost never happens anymore. If anybody has a link to the Nera nammitti he refers to midway, please do post. Also real interesting to see the difference between the little snippet of Mathe here, as compared to the Mathe during a Bangalore concert few years back. However, ultimately as a total outsider, who is clueless about CM politics, accepted traditions, norms, protocols etc etc etc… I believe there is just one reality. That he should do whatever he needs to do, to keep his music alive for himself. It does not matter if he concludes with a varnam, sings in a mosque or a moving train or with transgenders. All that matters is that we continue to get an opportunity to experience an alternate reality through the magic of his voice.
Very nice review!
Beautiful...
While respecting your point of view & accepting it, I wanted to put forth my pov as I consider him a mediocre singer who is good for lecture demo rather than a full fledged concert. Issues I have is sruthi, unmelodious, pronunciation, bhavam etc. What I give him credit for is his technical knowhow. His politics is better left unspoken
Certainly
So beautifully put.
Jai TMK sir. I am a surgeon and have very little knowledge of music, but when ever I see you sing or speak, I learn so much about music, including the strong thoughts band convictions you have and my English vocabulary also has improved.
You can love TMK or hate him for his ideologies but you can never hate the charm and brilliance of the boy between 3:59 to 4:55
Do you know what song it is?
@@neeellaamyaaruhmmcomeon8671 the composition is called Nottuswara or English Notes by Muthiah Bhaagavatar.
@@samagni thank you!
Was going to comment exactly the same....thanks for posting the time stamps.....incredibly charming isn't he?
Absolutely
This was an engrossing monologue and revealed (to me) both this man's obsessions and hatreds, which come off as personal sensitivities and flights of conscience.
It is a very polished narrative with no loose ends but a deeply self serving one in the end.
His thoughts don't come from a social and political epiphany like he claims. More likely they stem from his own shadow side - guilt, shame - and to compensate for this, anger and exhibitionism!
Such people are deeply problematic and we see them all around us today in India. They are hell bent on destroying various institutions but not building anything worthy and wholesome in their place other than spouting empty feel good phrases like freedom and justice for all .. What a waste of talent !!
I have viewed and listened to Shri TM Krishna non stop during this course of video presentation.

I have cried listening to your music , great divine Music
Outstanding genius in MA now in social platform with his intent for music delivered strongly for the people as well as musicians
Probably time to reveal for the people who you are and where you are.
Go ahead with your inspirational ideas to prove you are a Genius whatever obstacles you face from musical fraternity whether right or wrong.
God bless you abundantly with your progressive thoughts.

I always knew TMK as a brilliant musician in the Carnatic music scene but I was not aware of the personality behind that magnificent voice.

Honestly this is not some high funda ideology rather the essence of what he is trying to say is basic humanity, equality and acceptance and the fact that speaking about this openly is distasteful to some shows a deep-rooted denial against progress in itself.

As a singer, listener, contemporary, proud of Krishna's initiatives wrt music. Way to go and more power to our Krishna.
TMK is a revolutionary in carnatic music , using his talents , to share and adopt it to other downtrodden communities!
Something I cannot fathom is that he is hard-core in whatever he believes.
His heart to sing us the same that reachout to the poor artists. The open talk, progressive thinking, fearless conversation, controversial issues... combination of all, and all given sane attention. So good to listen to you.
A thinking person’s singer is joy to listen to ! This was so refreshing to hear!….Gems of wisdom all the way 🙏🏼🙏🏼
An amazing and a unique production. Introspective, honest to the core, endearing and heart warming all at the same time.

Watched this episode again today. Rewatching it,was a completely beautiful experience.

🙏🙏🙏🙏. Thanks MOPA for bringing out these episodes. Human minds are complex 😊. Helps to understand the various facets of the human mind. Regards
Another episode of TMK opening new dimensions of reality!! Totally worth the wait period!! ♥️
This is a masterclass by TM Krishna on music, you could even say art in general and mainly on society's 'norms' and 'conditioning' and what it does to certain things they consider 'aesthetic'. He has redefined and enlightened me on that word! Coming from a conservative music setup and talking about normalisation of sexual orientation (oh this topic by itself is too taboo for mylapore mamas😂) and other artforms and also understanding the privilege that he derives from his gender and caste is just awesome!
The entire sketch of Krishna's journey so far, brought out beautifully in 1.5 hours. Kudos.
Very nice and amazing extempore. Among all the Carnatic Musicians he is so refreshingly different. Very relatable as a human.
Outstanding genius and a great humanitarian. Person with a great heart.
Very very interesting. He opens his heart on so many issues which were and still are there and have to be sorted out . Many know about these but do not have the guts to give words to the thoughts worried what others would think of the person and not the basic issues .Hats off to TMK. He wants marginalized people who are many, also to be brought into the mainstream .Sort of revolution which will happen, don't know when?
OMG. Yes there is an inherent understanding or acceptance of what is aesthetic, it is brushed with morality leaving out huge sections of society
Whoa! It is not "notes to myself (TM Krishna)"! It is his thoughts and notes to us, everyone! One can love him or hate him as a musician, but he stands tall as a good human being! Bravo, for being so thoughtful and sharing the thoughts with us!
Anything that divide the society is wrong in the civilized world and should be condemned! Art is the last place where there should be division, love and humanity are the core values of any art!
The last part broke my heart. The cost of having a conscience is so great. Wish it wasn't.
Respect ✊. T.M.Krishna. Thanks MOPA for the interview.
I like his political enlightenment.

Need courage to SEE and enable others to see. absolutely honest and engaging 👍
Love love love this talk. Unfortunately, most artists just want to please people. They do not want to introduce 'disturbing' ideas that'll challenge their audience.
I feel sad to see critics go overboard with their barbs. His views and ideas deserve contemplation. It is this new India which feels agitated when the status quo is challenged . If it were the Chennai of the 50s 60s or even 70s, the music community may not agreed with his views but wouldn’t go berserk like this. Also got to do with the regime abd social media . Have become an intolerant society
It was wondurful to hear the experiences of a well established musician and activist.Thank you MOPA.Thank youTMK👍
TMK..has proved himself as a n eminent musician and a person of thought, intellect who makes you think...and ponder that music and art are beyond mere performances..
Incredible!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏. There is magic in his voice!!!! Regards
TMK, really you are genius in all, not only music but also your own motivation to change the society.
It is amazing to know artists so personally. Absolutely great work MOPA. I've always loved TMK sir's music and appreciated his stand on a lot of things. It was amazing to learn more about what he thinks about all the problems that exist but which we've accepted and ignored.
he is beautifully eloquent, I'm not sure why some of his peer take a dig at him
Beautiful uncluttered presentation of the TMK’s artistic and intellectual journey indeed ..
This video..is.an eye opener about T.M.K.'s universal approach and empathy for the down trodden rasikas.His offering free concerts goes to prove his magnanimity and nobility and total love for music for music sake.what I feel awkward is his equating porampoku with the immortal sublime Kirthan of SANGEETHA MURTHI..SAINT THYAGARAJAR..As a person he seems to be innately simple with no airs.at all .He just can't belittle the classical compositions.no wonder such a passionate artist is shun by renowned. Sabhas and people.v.v.sad.this is the brick -bats he has received for his radical thinking which he could have easily concealed.goes to prove his detachment for mammon.and fame.
One of the respectable persons in my life. Have to meet him once in my life.
Lovely programme and a great insight into TMK’s mind 👏👏
Wow!! Such a blessing to learn about his incredible journey called life..
What a great joy ride this was!!!
The more you go personal, it becomes universal. The more questions you ask yourself, double the question you throw at others.
Art, culture, philosophy, environment, sociology, history purana and of course politics these are areas where hardly any artist of this era dare to go. I think, after Kumar Gandharv there is T M Krishna ji who dare to chanllenge himself first and others next. I think this where course and flow of history tends to take a different turn. Truly a treat to watch, listen and experience Krishna ji always. This episode sums up where for the first time Mumbai synagogue was open for all and Krishna ji performed there with his usual musical charm.
That was again an experience to remember...
Shekhar Deshmukh, Mumbai
Very enjoyable indeed. Very moved by TMK's honesty
thank you MOPA, for this. TMK is now in my “Inspiration” list.
What an inspiration this man is. A true artist in every sense of the word!
That's why TM Krishna is only one in our country... Great sir 👌
QSQ; Without questioning the status quo and revolting, there is no growth in any society. That is true in music too. TMK is a maverick musician who really tries to QSQ and make changes in the society for a better world. Thank for this interview. Great listening.

The perception of aesthetics, beauty, and art can vary significantly from person to person and across different cultures. While there are certain universal principles of aesthetics that many people may find appealing, such as symmetry, balance, and harmony, individual preferences and cultural influences play a significant role in shaping one's perception of beauty and art.
Cultural background, personal experiences, upbringing, and exposure to different forms of art can all influence how individuals perceive and appreciate aesthetics. What one person finds beautiful or artistically pleasing, another person may not necessarily share the same opinion.
Furthermore, different art forms, styles, and genres can evoke varying responses from individuals based on their personal tastes and preferences. Some people may prefer classical art, while others may be drawn to contemporary or abstract art. Similarly, some may find beauty in minimalist design, while others may appreciate intricate and detailed artwork.
In conclusion, while there may be some universal aspects of aesthetics that many people find appealing, the perception of beauty and art is ultimately subjective and can vary widely among individuals and cultures.
WOW! This has left me “disturbed”…!!
Excellent self note. English song is so nice. T M K reached highest level due to his own effort. Of couse parent support too.
a wonderful listening experience... what a treat, a rich, deep understanding of music and its milieu, Thanks TMK
Lovely to listen 🎶...the reality is spoken hatts off to TMK
brilliant talk ,always his fan ..truly a legend
अति उत्तमनं
It's been a great pleasure for me as a listener to hear the journey of great artists like TMK sir...MOPA is working excellent to introduce such persons to the public....💯❤
His Music is brilliant to my ears. His thoughts do not gel well. I allow my ears to taste the music
Good to listen to his views. Certainly he is a brilliant musician of this age
Brilliant. I may not agree but Respect his perspective. Privilege , influence and social strata matters irrespective of what your talent is. I like the term Mylapore gang but the Alwarpet Gang is the real masters owning the industry of carnatic music. If you are ment to be something you will be that. That's all about. Its the design. Weather one likes or not thats all about it. TMK will rememberd for his 'Music' and I am his fan too, the one who has the freedom to disagree the views but like the music here and there that appeals to me.
Such a brilliant thought-provoking conversation with TMK. Great work team MOP- excellent video quality and editing and absolutely love the classic minimalist setup.
Crystal clear clarity...
Lots of love from New Zealand
This one program is equal to the whole cultural social economic history of atleast south India
Thank you so much for this !
Very interesting and deep conversation. Wonderful series! Great opportunity to get to know the artists better. Thank you for the series.
Enjoyed the candid conversation. Interesting to hear the insights of a great artist blessed with a voice that is mesmerizing, be it in singing or speaking. I am happy that the word-problematic didn't surface up too much::::::
Absolutely enjoyed listening !!! Beautifully expressed
Really enjoyed watching! Love from Canada
thought provoking session . thank you team for bringing to us
TM. Your musical journey is interesting
He is so admirable! 🙏🏼🌹
Brilliant talk.
Thank you MOPA team for bringing this series. Dunt know what else to say but 🙏
He's just an amazing man!
Congrats to the entire team who worked for this series. Such a beautiful concept
Love him 😍
கூந்தல் உள்ளவர் அள்ளியும் முடியலாம் அவிழ்த்தும் விடலாம். KFIல் படிக்கவும் எதிர்காலத்தை எதிர் கொள்ளவும் பின்னால் குடும்ப வசதி வாய்ப்புகள் இருந்தால்தான் நடக்கும். That too imagine sitaramasarma coming home to teach a student!
Wonderful food for thought
He is different but a phenomena!
Honest revelations.
Loved it
With all due respect...has TMK listened to and spent some quality time with MahaaMaestro T.K.Ramamurthy Pillai's
"Carnatic Jazz" album released in 1965?
If he hasn't, a quantum leap awaits him there for a metamorphosis from incremental false starts!
This is so unconventional Reflections which was never bothered to be seen.,, Very happy to see "singha Kutty"..lion kid...please consider the request of getting padma subramanyam ...totally enthralling...it's absolutely great series...bringing great people, things, ideas, which is associated with the most beautiful world "Art"...thanks in all abundance...
Absolutely amazing! :)
Love his music but not of his other ideas. After hearing this nothing to comment adversely. But something about Sri thiyagaraja said. His was a different plane and couldn t be understood from different plane.
Too good 👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏
No doubt you are the "TM Krishna".
What a delightful talk!
Very insightful and good to hear how the old masters have impacted his life and i fully endorse his views about removing the stuffiness in Carnatic music. YACM ... more power to them. Carnatic music is a treasure that I am happy to witness is like the saree,...traditional but yet expressing art and beauty. Thanks to the youngsters.
Fantastic
He is a Bharati... At new version... Happy to hear his autobiography.. Such a mesmerizing ideology.. The way he learnt, analysis, knowledge he is creating a new path.. Ad Tamil version of carnatic.. Is the most wanted epic of long long years... Thank you Sir.. TMK
Thoroughly enjoyed!!!
