Born within thirteen years of each other in Tiruvarur, the Trinity codified the kriti form and gave Carnatic music its devotional, raga-rich soul.
It is our time to protect, promote and preserve this music.
Born in Tiruvarur, he composed almost entirely in Sanskrit in the meditative vilamba kala. A master vainika, his Navagraha kritis and Kamalamba Navavarana cycle on Goddess Kamalamba of Tiruvarur are considered architectural marvels of raga.
Born in Tiruvarur and lived most of his life in Tiruvaiyaru on the banks of the Kaveri. A lifelong devotee of Sri Rama, he composed over 700 kritis in Telugu and Sanskrit. His Pancharatna Kritis remain the spiritual core of every Carnatic concert.
The eldest of the trinity, born in Tiruvarur and devoted to Goddess Kamakshi (of Bangaru Kamakshi shrine, Thanjavur). His celebrated Swarajatis in Bhairavi, Yadukula Kambhoji and Todi, and his command of rare talas like Misra Chapu, reveal the rhythmic genius of Carnatic music.
