The present book Sangeeta Sudha — English Translation of Carnatic Lyrics is an excellent work by Sri Dasu Damodara Rao, an ardent lover of Indian classical music. There are many books that contain compilation of the text of songs, but with out meaning and summary, they are of little use. This is due to the simple fact that the language becomes a barrier for the understanding and enjoyment of the sentiments embedded in the Saahitya. The book Sangeeta Sudha addresses the growing demands of everyone who wants to understand the meaning and appreciate the Saahitya-bhaava as the book contains not only a wonderful selection of songs of Sri Annamacharya, Bhadrachala Ramadasu, Kshetrayya, Saint Tyagaraja, Syama Sastry, Patnam Subrahmanya Iyer, Mysore Vasudevacharya and Dasu Sreeramulu, but also the line by line English translation and meaning which accurately portray the mood of the songs. The book is a valuable resource to all music lovers, students and teachers of Carnatic music and dance. This book is a worthy tribute to the great composers of Carnatic music tradition who significantly shaped the music and spiritual tradition of India.
