Abstract

Saṅgīta Candrikai of Māṇikka Mudaliyār, published in the year 1902, is considered as a prominent work in Tamil which deals with various concepts of Karnatik music. It is also one of the earliest publications in Tamil which deals with description of rāga-s in detail. This work also includes Tamil compositions of various composers which are available along with the notation. The author has included many popular and rare songs in Tamil and has documented them with the relevant notation. The notation system in South Indian Music has developed gradually with all the possible and necessary modifications as and when the whole system developed. This paper will focus on the chapter Pāḍaprakaraṇam of Saṅgīta Candrikai which has the notations for various Tamil compositions.
