Sri Venkatesa Suprabhatam by Shankar Mahadevan Music Today, Rs.225
Many households wake up each morning to the melodious strains of Venkatesa Suprabatham. It is believed that the Lord bestows prosperity on devotees who recite the Suprabhatam each morning. At the Balaji temple at Tirumala, each morning the Suprabhatam is recited to `wake' up the Lord. For most of us who have grown up hearing the Suprabhatam rendered by the legendary MS, it is difficult to believe that someone else too - like Shankar Mahadevan - can sing the sacred verses so beautifully. Shankar's pronunciation is flawless, and the overall effect is simply electric. While MS sings at a much faster tempo, and mostly without any background score, this man sings at just the right pace where each and every word is delivered with rare grace.
The CD is well produced and the accompanying music by Narayan Mani is soothing.
The text of the Suprabhatam and the Venkatesa Stotram is also given along with the CD, which is useful. This offering from Music Today is an excellent buy.
