Description :Tyagaraja was, first and foremost, a musical composer and a creator of new expressions and forms in music, as well as he was a competent poet too. He is often referred to as the 'tone-poet of Tiruvaiyaru. Tyagaraja displays considerable poetic gifts within his limited scope as avaggeyakara or composer of music. Among the celebrated major composers of Karnataka music, he is, perhaps, the only one who can be called a poet barring Kshetrajna. In short, we have in Tyagaraja a rare combination of a musical genius who could clothe his beautiful creations in art music in equally beautiful language, thus making them a perennial source of inspiration and delight to generations of music lovers.
