I am posting here a song by S Janaki from the film Sur Sangam, which was the Hindi remake of the famous Shankarabharanam. The singers in Sur Sangam were Anuradha Paudwal, Kavita Krishnamurthy, Lata, Suresh Wadkar, Rajan (or Sajan?) Mishra and of course S Janaki.
The song can be found right in the beginning of the following clip (the clip is a part of the movie itself):
The song begins with a sequences of swaras sung by SJ and the classical singer Rajan (or Sajan?) Mishra. The swaras are followed by a beautiful piece in the Hindustani raaga Bhatiyar ("aayo prabhaat sab mil gaao"). S Janaki's taans are amazing - she sings the notes rapidly and seems to nail each note firmly as she flies fast.
SJ gets to sing another song in the same film - Prabhu more avagun chit na dharo. I think it's the equivalent of "ye thirugananu"):
S Janaki does a very good job in both the songs. She is very expressive, and she seems absolutely comfortable with the language and the lyrics.
