The application was launched to popularize Oothukkadu’s legacy

Chennai: Oothukkadu Venkata Kavi, a brilliant composer that lives in the 1700s, does not have a student lineage, or children to carry out his inheritance.
Not until one of his descendants, Velanamanglam Krishnamurthi Bhagavathar brought a lot of composition that Kavi’s reflection poems and the skills shine far and wide.
Now, vocalist and Chitravina artists Bhargavi Balasubramanian, are on a mission to popularize the legacy of the composer extraordinary through the application that dives in his work – composition and music; Poetic skills, life and historical significance.
Called ‘Venkatakavi,’ This application was launched on July 14 as a comprehensive platform to access the composition and music in various forms.
“I saw that people knew very little about this composer.
He was born before the Trinity of Carnatic music (Tyagaraja, Muthuswami Digsitar and Sypaya Sastri), but the composition did not become famous for them,” Bhargavi said.
“After my teacher, Chitravina Ravought Oothukadu Venkata Kavi songs and extensively spreading them, I gathered a website dedicated to the composer in 2014.
And after working for almost two years, I launched a comprehensive application, like most people.
Access Information on their mobile today.
“This application functions like any music application; It has a separate part for audio and favorites, playlists and compositions listed such as indexes.
The composer’s website has been integrated as part of the application, because it has a YouTube channel featuring various musicians who carry out their composition.
“I started the YouTube channel two years ago showing available shows and some new ones.
I have also directed and directed the production of pandemics that featured 50 students and artists who did ‘Saptaratnas’ (a group of seven composition of Oothukaadu Venkata Kavi), which we released as Monthly series.
It can also be accessed through the application, “said Bhargavi.
People who know this composer only remember popular songs such as ‘Alaipayuthe’, ‘Aadathu Ashangadu’ and ‘Kuzhaloothi ​​Manamellam’.
But the depth is far more.
As a scholar who is equally advanced in Sanskrit as Tamil, he has created the composition of operatics in Mahabharata, Bhagavatham and Purana, which can be done as Dance Opera, “said Bhargavi.
The ‘Venkatakavi’ app is available on Android and iOS.
