where the literal & metaphorical voices intersect
Here’s the fifth song from my pandemic quarantine riyaaz series - Mouliyil mayilppeeli chaarthi composed by Raveendran maash. This song always reminds me of everything about Vishu and is from one of my all time favorite Malayalam movies, Nandanam. Hope you enjoy it.

Here’s the fourth song from my pandemic quarantine riyaaz series - Krishna nee begane baaro, a popular song in raagam, Yaman Kalyan.

Yesterday, Feb 26, 2022, was a big day for the 288 singers of the College of Engineering Trivandrum Alumni Association (CETAA), India. They created a world record for the most number of people singing in an online video relay. I was one of the singers too. Months of coordinating practice sessions and singing culminated into a reality that is one-of-a-kind. We are all now looking forward to our personalized certificates from the GWR. Here’s the recorded video stream of the event - my part is at the timestamp, 2:19:38 - 2:19:43.
P.S: I am accepting students for one-on-one Carnatic vocal lessons. If you are interested, kindly apply here.
I am also forming a community of singers that focuses on peer-supported learning. If you are interested to be a part of the community, kindly apply here.
