In our Carnatic system, there are very few musicians of Lalgudi's calibre. It's a brilliant recital of Brova Baaramma, but the whole concert is only about 40 min long. Lalgudi is a brilliant violinist, a great composer, interpreter, teacher, accompanist, soloist. His skill in laya is legendary. He is at home in 5 different languages. His discipline and commitment are unmatched. He is the king of masking complex music with bhava and melody. We can go on and on, but let's enjoy Brova Baaramma.
I heard him first in 1959 in Coimbatore accompanying the great MMI! The great man was effusive in his praise after Lalgudi did a stunning accompaniment of Shanmukhapriya; "ennama vasikkerada - kuzhandai" & clapped from the dais. This was & is Lalgudi's greatness - pure Bliss in a western instrument bringing forth the best in what is essentially an Indian Carnatic Music environment. No doubt another greatest of western violinists, Yehudi Menuhin, presented Lalgudi after another stunning virtuoso performance!!
LALGUDI G.JAYARAMAN = MUSIC = GOD
All are blessed to listen to the Greatest Violinist in India and a great exponent of Carnatic Music. He has given immense pleasure happiness and peace of mind and calmness to millions of people in India & abroad. may God give him long life to serve mankind.
I am grateful to the God Almighty. KRRamasubramanian
In fact when I had no interest in or knowledge of carnatic music, I started listening to carnatic music, especially instrumental and instantly was attracted to Lalgudi, and now the God of Music is no more. May his soul rest in peace.
It's good to be alive on the same planet, and in the same dimension as these artists! Thanks to 21st Century technology one can enjoy this on the other side of the earth.
Thank you! Much praise!
Sorry that should read "No doubt another greatest of western violinists, Yehudi Menuhin, presented his own Violin Lalgudi after another stunning virtuoso performance!!
Yes AmeenRaa.. You said it. The Greatest MUSICIAN alive, not just a violinist
Good Evening Carnatic Musical Violin Legendary Exponents, Vidhwan Sri Lalgudi G.Jayaraman ji, Lalgudi Sri G.J.R.Krishnan ji and Lalgudi Smt.Vijayalakshmi ji, thank you very much for the ever lasting beautiful Kruthi of "Brova Bharamma" rendered by you with your excellent style. Govinda Radhe, Gopala Radhe.
@mskumarsotherside Yes, he can only reproduce what is written in a score.
Btw I've listened to everyone from Joseph Jochaim to Heifetz, Menuhin, to Joshua Bell to Hilary Hahn and all in between from Bach to Tchaikovsky to Mozart, Mendelssohn and Goldmark to Schoenberg in Western Classical violin. That system is totally different from Carnatic Music. Knowing carnatic makes it easier to appreciate any other system of music.
Lalgudi is the greatest musician alive!
one of the best violinist and mucisian in the world.. a legend indeed.. God bless his soul...
but it is really sad to see people comenting bad about carnatic style music..
i would say that music has no language.. no religion ... its like an ocean... there is no end to it... whether it is carnatic or hindustani or western or any music... as long as it is soothing...try to enjoy it... enjoy the music... enjoy the instrument... the way they play it... observe and enjoy... violin is not an easy instrument... mastering it requires hours of practice...whether it is western or carnatic... so apreciate it.. respect it.. love the music...
Thank you...
wish to know...who is commenting bad about carnatic music... 😊

Vintage Lalgudi! Was this at the Festival of India in Moscow, sometime in the mid 80's? Thanks for sharing this awesome video.
it is really great...i have no words..thanks
Thanks for sharing this treasure!
Superb Bahudari. Sheer genius.
a melodious rendition in bahudhari
dr kalpathy iyer
Yes.Pure Bliss
@starmanskye very nicely put.
@mskumarsotherside why would he play tchaikovsky? he's not playing covers, he's playing his style
is it bahudari raga? -venugopal iyer.r
Then why western classical musicians that study carnatic music take years to learn it?
зрелищное, красивое полностью..... xD!!!...
you sure did your work with wiki... keep it up...
What year was this, just wondering?
the music starts at 1:50---perhaps it is better to cut the tuning part out?
yes you are well informed, and why is it your carnatic music not popular outside your well informed class
@mskumarsotherside I bet Joshua Bell can not play carnatic.
Yes, Joshua bell was terrible. His music sounded like fart.
you make it sound so simple... playing a written score needs understanding, patience, dedication and discipline... and you can play anything in the name of improvisation and no body can point out a mistake in rendition or interpretation. easy way to fame, right?...
Haha what a fool. Stay in your little bubble. You suffer from the very disease you accuse others of suffering - not being open minded enough to appreciate another system of music and culture and become richer for the experience. You embody everything that is wrong with the human condition and what art is not about. Pitiable
@opus88888
he would rather break his million dollar violin than playing carnatic junk
Yes piece of cake for Christian fuckwits. They love to break cultures of others having phucked themselves with mythical virgin giving birth nonsense on flat earth.
your musicians don't even know that there are other musical traditions apart from carnatic crap... and i guess when they come to know... they will learn western music in a seconds
u call this virtuosity... i bet this bloke cannot play the first page of tchaikovsky's violin concerto
tchaikovsky's was a piece of shit. Yehudi Menuhin was willing to suck up to Indian violinists. He tried his hand in carnatic. Only to do with a bit paper like thirg grader. He played tchaikovsky's so well. That;s because that was 3rd rate music. Carnatic is beyond these christian idiots.
