About The Event
Thamizhum Naanum is one of the iconic carnatic music performances featuring Ace Carnatic Vocalist, Sangita Kalanidhi Shri Sanjay Subrahmanyan. This exclusively curated classical music experience, dedicated to Tamizh Krithis, was started in 2018 and has run with full-house shows in Chennai and well-received virtual shows in the previous years.
The ancient language finds the singer in his elements, as he offers classic Thamizh compositions in tandem with those that he assiduously mines of composers whose works have not seen the light of day. His repertoire is vast and varied and an unending work in progress. He delights us with the unpredictability and newness of what he chooses to sing.
Sanjay Subrahmanyan will be accompanied by S Varadarajan on the Violin and Neyveli Venkatesh on the Mridangam.
He has showcased several composers of Thamizh songs which include the Alwars, M.M. Dandapani Desigar, Samuel Vedanayagam Pillai, Doraiswami Kavi, Mazhavai Chidambara Bharathi, Kavi Kunjara Bharathi, Shuddhananda Bharathi, Subramania Bharathi, Mayuram Viswanatha Sastry, the Sirkazhi Moovar and Ramaswami Sivan. This has helped Carnatic audiences resonate with the lyrics and become aware of how much variety there is among Thamizh songs. A unique combination of tradition and modernity in his concerts is what makes the fans throng to his performance every time.
