DIKSHITAR'S KAMALAMBA NAVAVARANAMS
Muttuswamy Dikshitar, one of the trinity composers of Carnatic music, composed a set of nine compositions known as the "Kamalamba Navavaranams." These compositions are dedicated to the goddess Kamalamba, a form of the divine mother, and are typically sung as part of Navaratri celebrations. The Navavaranams are an integral part of the Carnatic music tradition and contribute to the preservation and propagation of Indian classical music heritage. Each Navavaranam is set to a different raga and follows a specific structure that includes the invocation of the goddess, praise of her attributes, and a description of her divine form.
Studying the Navavaranams provides rigorous training in various aspects of Carnatic music, including raga elaboration, melodic improvisation (ragam), rhythmic intricacies (talam), and lyrical interpretation (sahitya). These compositions are considered masterpieces of musical craftsmanship and offer valuable lessons in composition and performance. By learning and performing these compositions, musicians contribute to the continuity of a rich cultural legacy that spans centuries.
