- CORRECTION: Mrdangam is by Shri MS Ramaiah!
A rare glimpse of what Mali must have been like in his prime, before tape-recorders. A wonderfully creative alapna followed by the kriti. Then something unusual after a kriti: a rAgamAlika, but what a sAveri, simhendramadhyamam, nAtakurunji, and thOdi! The last tthree are rAgams he rarely plays in a rAgamAlika. Palghat Mani Iyer's mrdangam following is sensational.
Thank U for releasing Mali Sirs concert frequently. I went back to 1960s, when I attended some of his concerts in person.
Mali 's uniqueness was , about throwing surprises .unique twists and turns , which normally would not imagine .remarkeable control over shruthi and laya , tonal quality , blowing consistency par excellence .no two times the same . i have attended his saturday and following sunday katcheris . they would be entirely different .gifted genius , music inimitable and immortal
my mother's favorite. she is no more
I will never forget the first time I heard M on a recording that I bought at the shop in Chennai where they would copy LPs vinyl onto assess and I would look at the LPs I loved Kronic music but I did not know all the musicians so well and I would choose them from their appearance and I'd also asked the record store owner who was good sometimes he was reliable sometimes he was not in any event I still have that cassette and I listen to it five times every year
Amazing clarity in swaras tonal quality. What a control in blowing and delivery!🙄🙄 Wow. What a soothing tones!
You are doing great job... when the older generation wait eagerly for a concert of Mali in all india radio... the new generation is privileged with TH-cam... and when there are amazing people like you... we are getting golden opportunities to repeatedly listen to Mali... whenever even we wish.. my heartfelt gratitude to you... 🙏🙏🙏❤
I thank you for taking us back to pre1960s.
Mohanam being a captivating raagam, Mali's rendition of it took me to ecstasy. Melody and mastery are his highlights. The accompaniments were of par excellence.
My Father's most preferred and he used to sing the same during his free time and during festivals season generally and admirer of Eminent Flutist Mr.T.R.Mahalingam known as MALI by his short and sweet name

Thank you so much for sharing Flute Mali's recordings... am also an ardent fan of the genius. Superb tonal quality.
No words to praise. Simply divine music. Great master of flute.
What a therapy ....superb so peaceful and divine
Unmatchable flutist Mali RIP
Marvellous.
When I began to listen to this, something happened. At least my hands became stiff and hair stood up. I wonder what can be more divine in music.
Each time I listen to the sAveri, I get goosebumps. This may the definition of ‘shruti shuddhate’
Spellbound. Speechless
Enthralling flute play. Thank you very much for sharing this wonderful audio.👌🏼👍🏽👍🏻👍🏻👍🏾👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👌🏼👍🏽👍🏽👍🏾👍🏻👍🏽👌🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Glad you enjoyed. There are many gems like this one uploaded in this channel. Be sure to listen to them all. You can start with the top 10 playlist I created.
I just want to say, its very difficult to hear the drums, but nonetheless this still sounds absolutely beautiful. I can tell that this must have been magical to hear in person. This music needs to be re-introduced to the world! I live in Pennsylvania, US and I certainly love it. Truly I thank you for posting this...
This is a very old recording and I tried my best to clean it up. The mrdangam (what you refer to as drums) has been played wonderfully but I agree that it sounds a little muted. However, when you have a genius artiste in full flow (such as the flutist), good accompanists fall into the background so as not to interfere with the flow, yet their contributions are still perceptible and contributory. Please do your bit to spread music of this quality.
It's very divinefull
Haven't listened to Mali play anything like this!!
This is one of my favorite.

Surely divine Mohanam
sir please share if you have Sri.S.P. Natarajan - Dindigal flute recordings.
Exquisite!
She could listen to this like me
Surely divine Mohanam
Has alani subbudu played with Mr Mali.
I am not aware of any concerts or recordings with Palani S but there may have been a few. I have read that Mali held Palani in high esteem. I understand that Palani might have avoided playing for Mali because of his unpredictability.
@@bestofcarnaticflute2736 We a couple of photographs of palani accompanying Mali. Unfortunately no recording
Palghat Mani Iyer is not the Mrudangam accompaniment in this song.
If you had read the prior comments, you will have realized that this has been acknowledged.
Mali sir is lord Krishna
it's not palghat mani iyer on the mridangam...
my guess
s v s narayanan or guruvayur dorai or palghat kunjumani. ...However
I feel there is no life in this Mali performance. ....
Each one to his own views. Personally I have always felt that this was one of the best Mali pieces I have heard. Very soulful and calm with outstanding ragamalika svaras. It grows on you with repeated listening.

there is no doubt about mali's genius... like u I'm also his ardent fan. ...will be thankful if u can share some more Mali performances.......like the short behag...kambhoji...
The behAg/kAmbhOji was from an old 78 rpm record and from an era when Mali was perhaps at his peak and when tapes did not exist unfortunately. I have some more old records but I am not allowed to share it because of copywrite restrictions.
There was very little in any of his performances.
You are nuts.
