Today is the 2nd day of #Navratri2020
Over the last two years, I had written about sets of Carnatic kritis composed by Muthuswamy Dikshithar during #Navratri
#Thread

In 2018, we spoke about the Kamalaamba Navavaranas.

The Navavaranas are 9 Kritis (Compositions) by Muthuswamy Dikshithar.

https://twitter.com/jeysundhar_d/status/1050333783986073600

The kritis are dedicated to Kamalamba/Kamalambigai, the Goddess of the Thyagaraja Temple at Thiruvaroor.

1. Autumnal nine days recall the glory of Devi - Sharad Navaratri. Beautiful verses such as Devi Mahatmyam/Lalita Sahasranamam/Chandi Paath describe Devi’s qualities. These are recited.

Navavarna Kritis in Sanskrit are dedications by Muthuswami Dikshitar sung Carnatic style.

2. These magnificent pieces offer a glimpse of the Tantric mode of extolling Devi. Elaborate tantric rituals are simplified into emotive yet spiritually rich songs. Kritis (songs) are structured as Dhyana(1) Kirtana (9) & Mangala (1). Each is set to an evolved raga.

3. Todi,Ananda Bhairavi, Kalyani, Sankharabharanam, Kambodi, Bhairavi, Punnagavarali, Sahana, Ghanta, Ahiri & Sri. In the Navavarna, Devi = Kamala as kritis are dedicated to Kamalamba in a temple in Tiruvarur(TN) built (?)9th CE.Shall try to explain pallavi & anupallavi each day.
