Saint Tyagaraja

Yes his contribution is immense, and most of his songs are sung with awe even by the younger generation. And it is really overwhelming to see lots participating in the Thyagaraja Aradhana held at Thiruvaiyaru every year to sing the Pancharathna Kritis.

I like most of Sadguru Thyagaraja's compositions . some of them are : * Nidhi Chaala Sukhamaa * Raaga Ratna Maalika Che * Endaroa Mahaanubhaavulu * Sarasa Saama Daana * Saamaja Vara Gamana * Baagaayenayya * Manasaa Etuloartune * Bantu Reeti Koluvu * Raaraa Maa Inti Daaka * Daya Raani Daasharadhe Raama * and there are many more uncountable
