Review by Birgit Krols

Thodi, the latest album by Chittoor Subramaniam Pillai, is a musical masterpiece that showcases the artist's exceptional talent and mastery of the Carnatic style of music. The album features seven tracks, each of which is a unique blend of classical melodies and soulful lyrics.

The album opens with the track "Sri Gananatham Bhajeham," a devotional piece that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The next track, "Sree Mahaganapathim," is a beautifully rendered composition that highlights Pillai's vocal prowess and his ability to convey emotion through his music.

The album also includes a number of instrumental pieces, such as "Thodi Varnam" and "Sri Rama Padama," which showcase Pillai's incredible skill on the violin. The album's final track, "Sri Kamalambikaya," is a fitting conclusion to the album, with its haunting melody and powerful vocals.

About Chittoor Subramaniam Pillai

Chittoor Subramanyam (22 June 1898  18 Oct 1975) was an Indian carnatic musician. He was well known for his repertoire of Thyagaraja Keerthanas (compositions) and mastery of Laya (rhythm). He had his own style called 'Kancheepuram School'. He was popular in Swaraprasthanam and Kalapramanam, noted for singing very rare keerthanas of Thyagaraja, Muthuswamy Dikshitar and other composers. At a time when recording technology was in its infancy, his two discs for Columbia Records, which contained his own compositions such as Madhura Nagarilo Challanamma Bonu, Kulamulona Golladana and Mavallagadamma  demonstrated his originality as a composer and lyricist.
