Setting Narayana Guru’s poems to music is an experience: T M Krishna

Thiruvananthapuram, Feb 3 (UNI) Setting to music poems of Sree Narayana Guru is an exploration into multiple levels of experience latent in the works of the spiritual leader and social reformer, says Carnatic vocalist and activist T M Krishna.
“I actually think that any good writing that doesn’t have multilayers within, it is a third rate writing. It is the multiple layers of meaning and experience that make Guru’s poems unique,” Krishna said at the ongoing four-day Mathrubhumi International Festival of Letters (MBIFL) here.
It is actually the ability to make one imagine the ultimate test of any good poetry, and this comes automatically in Guru’s poems, Krishna, who has set to Carnatic ragas a bouquet of poems of the 20th century Kerala-born philosopher, noted in a conversation with journalist Saraswathy Nagarajan on the opening day of MBIFL on Thursday.
