 The Hindu : K.V. Mahadevan dead
K.V. Mahadevan, veteran music director, considered to be one of the greats of South Indian film music, passed away this morning in the city.
Known for mythologicals such as Sampoorna Ramayanam and Thiruvilayadal, KVM is said to have been a path-breaker in blending classical music with film music and was a `guru' to many music directors.
Mahadevan, a recipient of two national awards, evolved a style of film music which appealed to both masses and the classes.

 The Hindu : A tribute worth the while
Sundar's Ragapravaham paid homage to Mahadevan, who passed away recently, through a lec-dem that was more of an informal interaction between the listeners and the performers.
When Sundar himself posed a query about whether K.V. Mahadevan could have been the composer of the M.K. Thyagaraja Bhagavathar number in ``Sivagami', there were a couple of enthusiastic responses from the audience.
Sundar made an interesting observation - he said K.V. Mahadevan's songs, especially the romantic ones, invariably had the male voice singing in a bolder and higher pitch while the female's seemed to rely on the male's and seek sustenance from it.

 Telugu cinema real stars - Velugu Needalu - K Viswanath by Srinivas Kanchibhotla
What is interesting in all these different kinds of music is, Mahadevan did not seem to be too keen to make a mark and stamp his brand on any his creations, allowing the songs to be judged on their own merit.
While Mahdevan/Puhalendi stuck to the traditional route and preferred to remain behind the scenes with their background scores, Illayaraja's talent spills over the screen, letting the viewer to be totally immersed in the moment, visually through the context and subliminally through the background score.
Each of the collaborations of Viswanath and Mahadevan would find atleast a couple of classical tunes (be it tyaagaraja swami kRthulu, ramadasu keertanalu, annamayya samkeertanalu, kshetrayya padaalu, siddhendra yogi abhinaya padaalu), which seem to be sorely missing in his works with Illayaraja, but for the occasional "bAlakanaka maya chaela sujana", "koluvai unnaaDae daeva daevuDu".
