About Aparadhi Naanalla (Raga Revathi - Khanda Chapu tala)

Aparadhi Naanalla is a Carnatic flute composition performed by Dr. N. Ramani. The track appears as the tenth piece on the album Haunting Melodies, released on November 25, 2009 under the label Aditya Music in digital media format.

The composition follows the Revathi raga, a melakarta raga (72nd in the scheme), and is set to Khanda Chapu tala, a rhythmic cycle of five beats. The track spans 5 minutes and 47 seconds. Dr. Ramani renders the piece on the bamboo flute, accompanied by traditional Carnatic instrumental support, though specific accompanying artists remain undocumented in available sources.

The album Haunting Melodies compiles a selection of Dr. Ramani’s performances, emphasizing slow-paced, introspective raga alapana and neraval segments. The label Aditya Music distributed the release digitally, catering to audiences of classical Indian music. No additional production credits or recording locations are publicly verified for this track.

Dr. N. Ramani (1934–2015) established himself as a leading exponent of the Carnatic flute tradition, known for his technical precision and adherence to classical norms. His interpretations of Revathi and other rare ragas contributed to the preservation of traditional repertoire in 20th- and 21st-century concert practice.
