Kanthagaanam

In the early 2000s, Sri Kandaswamy Temple released Kanthagaanam, a 20-track album of musical offerings to Lord Skantha. The first nine tracks feature original compositions written by Dr. Kiruthiyaa and Gurunatha Chittar, dedicated to Sri Kandaswamy Temple, reflecting the temple's spiritual heritage and the deep devotion of its community. The remaining eleven tracks are beloved renditions of popular hymns traditionally sung in praise of Lord Muruhan, offering listeners a rich and uplifting musical experience. The songs are soulfully rendered by Sangeetha Ratna Srimathi Mangalam Shankar, bringing to life the devotion and reverence embodied in each piece. The music was masterfully composed and arranged by Sri L. Krishnan, whose expertise brought depth and vibrancy to the devotional pieces. Kanthagaanam continues to be cherished by devotees as a timeless expression of bhakti, connecting hearts to the divine through the universal language of music.
