By far the greatest vagyekara (in my opinion) of recent times rich in bhakti, bhava, and sahitya with an inimitable style, naada, and all essence and essentials of Carnatic Music. No imitation. Many artists had developed their own style, but this is unique, blending MDR Sir's depth of voice with the slow pace make the listener drive to a meditational mood, pure bliss in attending. Not alone Naata or Pancharatna Krutis, he could make any kruti or raga a "ratnam"👋👋👋👋👋🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙌🙌🙌🙌 What great accompanists, violin is so great that it brings out the subtilities, as also mridangam🙏🙏🙏🙏.

What a sublime rendition by the great master and guru MDR Sir, unparallelly bringing the niceties if the raga Nattai and the perfect meaning of the kruti👋👋👋👌👌👌👌. The concert is supported by perfect accompanists. Thanks for uploading this gem🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

The Jagadanandakaraka that we listen today has been standardised so much, with sangatis intact and without fluidity. While there are benefits to standardisation ( group singing and synchronised singing), it curtails individual imagination and approach to masterpieces like the Pancharatnam. MDR stands as an exemplification of sheer individuality and courage. Thank you for being the light My Dearest Ramanthan MDR ❤️

MD Ramanathan, as everyone has said, is truly Jagadhanandhakaraka, and he will remain so for eons to come

[@victofire]

MDR is the Jagata Ananda Karaka

[@mdrnkvn]

O !Shri Ramanathan! Jagat Ananda kArakA!
What accompaniments!!

[@sathyavageeswaransekhar2615]

each jagadananda karaka in different sangati what a great attempt.

[@ajaisharma844]

He sings it slower than other artistes, majestic, full of rasa, very nice how it brings out the groove of the mridangam

[@sankarsarma987]

Greats are Greats!
