Sharing today ‘Tillana,’ a beautiful composition by the legendary Padma Bhushan Sri Lalgudi Jayaraman ji. I first learned this piece during my teens and have loved it ever since. The depth and grace of this composition have always resonated with me, and it remains a cherished part of my musical journey. This video is a clip from a 1998 Bombay TV program!
