Please consider adding info to the Link regarding SRI SONTI VENKATA RAMANNAYA

If you are knowledgeable in the topic, consider giving the guru Sri sonti venkata ramannaya's page some info and citations. He deserves more recognition. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | — Preceding unsigned comment added by Iamtheone21 (talk • contribs) 04:51, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Saint Title

Tyagaraja is popularly referred as Saint Tyagaraja. Saint is not limited to Christian tradition. I wonder why the heading is changed.

Place of Birth!

Is it Thiruvarur or Thiruvaiyar? Could someone please check? Nattu 00:06, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's Thiruvarur.

Why "Saint"? Why not "Sri"? Last I heard, "Saint" was a title given by the Pope. I'm changing it to "Sri" forthwith; please mention any objections here before reverting. Ambarish 08:59, 14 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Saint is not a title confined to conferement by Pope. Nattu 00:08, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Any comments on the form of Telugu used by Tyagaraja? - Srikanth

Sri is a title given to contemprory persons, who have specialised in their fields and hence achieved recognition.

Whereas "Saint" is a title given to people who have "Realised" God or felt that Supreme Reality. I am sorry to state that your point in stating that "Saint" has to do with Christian Religion is very disapponting. If you have listened to [AIR]'s National Programme of music, the announcers say like this "... you were listening to the composition of Saint Thyagaraja......" Not Sri Tyagraja.

Moreover, changing it to Sri is belittling his achievements and his sainthood. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ramananrv123 (talk • contribs)

Tya?

Why spelled as 'Tya'? Should it not be Thya?.

Yes, why no Thya? Does it not confuse with T as in Tin?. I know Th is use for aspirated sound, but that is better than 'Tin' sound. --192.193.171.152 (talk) 19:45, 3 December 2010 (UTC) Kumar[reply]

Me too..Its odd..I think the standard spelling used in all publications use "THYAGARAJA".... can give some support links or evidences..but i dont suppose anywone would disagree.... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.222.165.65 (talk) 15:18, 24 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Missing reference

The article should mention Purandaradasa who is regarded as the founder of Carnatic music. The conspicuous omission of his name is rather puzzling. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Antinatter (talk • contribs) 14:30, 9 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

S.R.Aniruddha (talk) 16:49, 2 January 2012 (UTC)PLEASE READ:- Purandaradasa is not the founder of Carnatic music, Tyagaraja, Mutthuswami Dikshitar and Shama Shastry are the thrimurthis who were the founders of Carnatic music. Purandaradasa was the founder of music in KARNATKA, not the founder of Carnatic music.:)[reply]

Proposal to remove audio links

Wikipedia is not a search engine, portal or repository. Encyclopaedic content is what should be in here. In this context, YouTube videos do not seem to be appropriate to include. Moreover, for each song, there are 1000s of renditions. Why should one be chosen specially over others in the context of Encyclopedia? I propose that all audio links be removed from this and other similar pages. VasuVR (talk, contribs) 05:43, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Saint Tyagaraja's Birthplace

It is well known that Tyagaraja was born in Thiruvarur. In fact, the three major composers of carnatic music of that time (called the trimurthi of carnatic music) were all born in the same place. But someone is insisting on vandalizing this page by putting in some other place, perhaps for some parochial reasons. I think it throws into doubt all the other great information on this page that many have worked so hard to present. Please keep a look out for vandalism of this sort.

Error in Composer's birthplace

Note: this post is copied from the Teahouse

BIRTH PLACE OF A COMPOSER your article on THIAGARAJA,THE COMPOSER IN tAMILNADU,iNDIA SAYS HE WASBORN AND LIVED IN THIRUVARUR THIS IS NOT CORRECT HE LIVED IN THIRUVAIARU HOPE YOU CORRECT THE ERROR SINCERELY G.SOUNDARARAJAN PH.D 2600:1700:3A20:7200:29A8:7A18:51EE:5FBD (talk) 21:48, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

(Please dont write in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS. Its considered yelling) Victor Schmidt (talk) 21:57, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

(Copied from Teahouse) Note: I have taken a look and the post above appears correct. However, fixing the article is not as straightforward as it might seem at first blush, because after looking at some of the sources, it appears the confusion also taints some of them. (I will post to the talk page, and possibly at an appropriate Wikiproject)--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 22:05, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I'm wrong above. The source I thought contradicted his birthplace (the one cited in the infobox) actually says he was born in Tiruvarur, but also mentions Thiruvaiyaru (which is part if the title of the page, and is apparently where he died and where a music festival is held in his honor). Very confusing to an outsider. I'll let someone else sort this out.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 22:26, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The source given in the infobox implies that he was born in Thanjavur, which is also the general belief in the community. I have changed the infobox accordingly, and will leave it to the regular editors of this page to sort out the body. I think it might not be precisely known where he was born, but there seem to be various theories floating about. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 09:34, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
