Carnatic music is believed to have
a divine origin with its tenets set forth by Purandara Dasa,
Venkatamakhin and Govindacharya. Various composers including the
celebrated Trinity of Tyagaraja, Dikshitar, and Syama Sastri have
enriched the Carnatic music repertoire with their melange of ragas and
their melodic sequences.
The compositions, while maintaining their identity with their
sophistication of raga (melody type)and tala (cyclical rhythm) also
provide scope for free improvisation. A composition can be performed
modestly in humility, or magnificently in elaboration. Hence teachers
from different lineages have added their interpretations while
preserving the composer’s vision. It is this paradoxical and yet
exhilarating duet between tradition and innovation that augments
virtuoso performances and makes Carnatic music one among the world’s
greatest musical styles.
