Recorded on January 7, 2024
Guruvaibhavam is a musical choir hosted in Nurani Vedic Village. This event is held to pay tribute to eminent Bharatiya musical legends by way of a group of young singers presenting great compositions of the revered gurus in front of music loving audience.
Our aim is to provide an opportunity for young kids to learn selected compositions of our great Gurus and through that pass the rich musical legacy to next generations to carry it along as they grow up. Kids will learn the songs, background, ragam, swaram, technical details and singing nuances so they have better insights to the krithis they learn.

Maharaja Sri Swathi Thirunal
Guruvaibhavam 2027 will title Maharaja Sri Swathi Thirunal as its composer. Sri Swathi Thirunal Rama Varma III was the Maharaja of the Kingdom of Travancore. He was a musician and composer who wrote over 400 classical compositions in both Carnatic and Hindustani style. Swathi Thirunal was deeply interested in music right from childhood. Besides being an able ruler, he was a patron of music and was a musician himself. Researchers say that Swathi Thirunal affixed his compositions with the mudra Padmanabha, sarasijanaabha, etc. and its synonyms. His education in music started with the first lessons from Karamana Subrahmania Bhagavathar and Karamana Padmanabha Bhagavathar. He encouraged both broad systems of Indian music, Hindustani and Carnatic music, though he was essentially a connoisseur of the Carnatic music tradition.
We welcome all the music aspirants to register and join, to promote, and to bless the whole team for a grand event in a much bigger scale and perfection than in the previous years.
