About Nagumomu
Nagumomu is a Carnatic music composition performed by Mangalampalli Balamuralikrishna as the opening track of the live album Paddhatti – Dr M Balamurali Krishna – Live in Concert 1968. The recording captures a 1968 concert but was officially released on June 1, 2005 under the Charsur Digital Workstation label. The album format is a compact disc (CD).
The track Nagumomu runs for 19 minutes and 56 seconds and serves as the first piece in the collection. The composition belongs to the Abheri raga, a melodic framework in Carnatic tradition, though the album documentation does not specify additional lyrical or rhythmic details. Balamuralikrishna, a vocalist and composer, presents the piece in a concert setting, accompanied by instrumentalists whose identities remain uncredited in the release metadata.
The album Paddhatti compiles archival material from Balamuralikrishna’s 1968 performance, remastered for digital distribution. Charsur Digital Workstation, the producing label, specializes in classical Indian music reissues. No further information about the recording venue, accompanying artists, or audience reception is provided in the available sources. The track exemplifies Balamuralikrishna’s interpretive style within the kriti (composed song) tradition of Carnatic music.
