Double Act Swaram | Baashanga Ragas | Jannal Oram | Sikkil Gurucharan

In this episode by the door rather than a window, Sikkil Gurucharan takes us through the soundscapes of some Ragas that have more than one variety of the same Swara, namely Baashanga Ragas. Hence the Baasha bhai image in thumbnail. 🙂

About Jannal Oram:

Jannal Oram is an extended window seat view into classical Carnatic music. It blends traditional elements with loads of slapstick and situational comedy. The show features a unique blend of knowledgeable commentary, where the host Gurucharan delves into ragas, sings a few lines from primary compositions, explores their connections to other ragas, and discusses their film adaptations. It’s an engaging mix of educational insights and entertainment, offering a comprehensive look at Carnatic music in a light-hearted and accessible way.

Location: Anantya in the Village, a boutique heritage homestay in Alwarthirunagari, perfectly placed to visit Navathirupathi and other temples and to experience the spirituality of Nammalwar.
