Rama Jogi

Paramatmakam is a studio album of Carnatic vocal music released in 2011 under the SWATHI’S SANSKRITI Series label. The recording features a solo performance by Semmangudi Srinivasa Iyer, a prominent 20th-century exponent of the Carnatic tradition. The album was issued in CD format as part of a series dedicated to classical Indian compositions.

The album includes the track Rama Jogi as its opening piece. The composition spans 5 minutes and 29 seconds and exemplifies Iyer’s interpretive style within the Carnatic repertoire. The specific raga and tala of the track remain undocumented in the provided context, as do details regarding accompanying artists or instrumental support. The lyrical content and composer attribution for Rama Jogi are also not specified in available sources.

Semmangudi Srinivasa Iyer (1908–2003) was a recipient of the Sangeet Natak Akademi Fellowship and the Bharat Ratna, India’s highest civilian award. His recordings, including posthumous releases like Paramatmakam, preserve his contributions to the gayaki (vocal) tradition of Carnatic music. The SWATHI’S SANSKRITI Series label has released multiple archival and tribute albums featuring historical and contemporary classical Indian musicians, though the full discography of the series is not detailed here.

The 2011 release date positions Paramatmakam as a later addition to Iyer’s recorded legacy, compiled or remastered after his death. No additional production credits, recording locations, or liner notes are confirmed for this edition. The album’s reception, commercial performance, and critical analysis are not documented in the available context.
