RAGA SAMANWAYAM – EPISODE 08: YAMUNA KALYANI

Описание: Raga Samanwayam is a musical exploration where India’s classical depth meets contemporary imagination.

This series celebrates the beauty of a single raga by weaving together multiple musical traditions, rhythmic styles, and interpretative expressions—yet keeping the raga’s soul untouched.
Each episode is an artistic dialogue:
between genres, between cultures, and between musicians who rediscover the raga through collaboration, improvisation, and emotional storytelling.

Episode 08 — YAMUNA KALYANI: Devotion in Grace

This episode flows into the serene and luminous world of Raga Yamuna Kalyani — a raga that carries devotion with gentleness, elegance, and quiet joy.
This episode brings together two deeply devotional compositions:
Krishna Nee Begane – A composition by Vyaasaraaya
Karunam Vidhehi – From Utharaswayamvaram by Irayimman Thambi
Yamuna Kalyani unfolds here as grace in motion.
Through tender melodic curves and fluid rhythmic expression, the raga evokes devotion not as intensity, but as affection—where surrender is gentle and faith is filled with warmth.
Moving between classical bhakti and dramatic narrative, this episode reveals Yamuna Kalyani as a raga that consoles, reassures, and uplifts—allowing devotion to bloom through simplicity and melodic charm.
