Aanandamrithakarshini :: Carnatic Music

I am trained in Carnatic vocal music and learning to play Veena has been one of the challenges! Whenever I find time, I search for music videos and spend hours listening to them. 

Aanandamrithakarshini by Veena maestro S Balachander , a self taught musician, is mind blowing and you would listen again and again. The raaga is believed to bring rain when sung, an appraise to Lord Varuna (God of rains). It is a composition by Musical Trinity of South Indian Carnatic music, Muthuswami Dikshitar.
