Description: Sri Muthuswami Dikshitar (1775-1835) on Karnatak music today is as strong as it was during his life time. Dikshitar, as he is popularly called, Sri Tyagaraja (1767-1847) and Sri Syama Sastri (1762-1827)are the three great composers known as the Trinity of Karnatak music. The works of these masters, which exerted a profound influence on the form and content of Karnatak music, were based on the Seventy two melakarta system and hence it would be appropriate to consider them from this standopoint. This paper sheds some light on the life and work of three great masters.
