Kathakali Poem by Unnikrishnan Sivasankara Menon
Kathakali
Exquisite poetry rendered
In music gripping the heart
And dance eloquent
Merge par excellence.
The lines and audio made a feel of seeing kathakali....! ! so nice... I just remembered the movements with hands and eyes that got familiar from movie.
Farisa, Thank you for the good words. But, have you heard Hiaderaali earlier? He enriched the Kathakali music by his inimitable rendition of the raagas with exemplary manodharma, and such accurate pronunciation of the most difficult Malayalam and Sanskrit words. He simply proved by his music that music is much above, religion, caste, creed, color and language. I worship him.
No.it's first time i heard his audio. respect for the devotional artist.
