He is a trained Carnatic singer (under late Sri.Balamuralikrishna) and he intelligently fuses his Carnatic knowledge with western styles and other genres. This song is a nice example of a fusion song, based on <em>Hamsadhwani<\/em> raga. Sharreth uses a strings section, Saxophone, Flute and backing vocals to great effect. The tune is quite complex with a lot of variations and a classically trained Yesudas does complete justice to it. This song is considered one of the best compositions of Sharreth and is very popular.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed-youtube\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Aa Raagam Madhumayamam Raagam..!!(Mini Anand)\" width=\"782\" height=\"440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vUyInaDIUz8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Song: Aa Ragam Composer: Sharreth Lyrics: Kaithapram Singer: K.J.Yesudas Movie: Kshanakathu Sharreth is one of the toughest composers for any singers because, many of his compositions will be quite complex.
