Just finished listening to the whole Ramanujan album. It is lovely! The instrumentation takes one back a hundred years ago. Nice work by Ramesh Vinayakam. All tracks are lovely!

LOL. Yes, orey snow dhaan ponnga!
VJ always astonishes, even at her age she is able to deliver such perfection.
Yes, the album is beautiful in its "authentic" period ambience. Good attention to detail by RV.
I discovered it only after reading the interview in TOI. Just checked Youtube, and there it was!

"Veteran Vani Jayaram is still in incredible form in Narayana, a resonant bhajan that is constructed beautifully to reflect the form of music prevalent in the beginning of the century, steeped in classical music but also a peekaboo strings orchestra."
Full CD review here:
http://itwofs.com/milliblog/2014/06/...esh-vinayagam/
Another:
Narayana – Vani Jayaram, Karthik Suresh (CINEMALEAD'S PICK)
"The album begins in style, to the charming vocals of none other than Vani Jayaram in the track Narayana. Set to the divine lyrics of Amarar Vaali, this song brings about the positive vibes right away. The orchestrations are well panned out, perfectly synchronized on the Carnatic scale."
http://www.cinemalead.com/musicrevie...-review311.htm
And another:
"Vani Jayaram sounds absolutely breathtaking in the blissful bhajan Narayana, the arrangements too appropriately complementing the serene composition."

Of music and mathematics
Veteran singer Vani Jayaram’s rendition of ‘Narayana’ in the album has been hailed by many. Talking about her experience, she says, “I was initially surprised when he (Ramesh) gave me a song whose pitch (shruthi) was less than what I usually sing in. Just when I was thinking about why he gave me a song when I could very well do much more, I came to know that, in the days of Ramanujan, people only sang in that pitch.”

"Composer Ramesh Vinayakam gets everything spot on in the bhajan Narayana Narayana – a simple and retro classical-based tune, an arrangement that sees glorious use of strings (of which this is just a preview of what comes later), and a lovely combination at the vocals; that of the doyenne Vani Jayaram (one song in 1983 earlier this year, one to come in Kaaviya Thalaivan; glad to see the lady back in action and still sounding fab) in the first half and the boy Karthik Suresh in the latter."
