This raga has its own flavor of caffeine in it!It mesmerizes the audience with the soul it provides for the song.The presence of two nishadam provides the musician with ample scope to improvise the ragam and create the mood the songs require.
There are famous compositions like Enna dhavam seydhanae by Papanansam sivan ,chinna chiru kiliyae(beginning 2 stanzas) to name a few.The other strikingcomposition in recent times sung by Shankar mahadevan
"Ekathanthaya vakrathundaya gowri thanayayar dhimayi" leaves the listeners spellbound.Kapi ragam adds to the devotional flavour which is abundantly present in the slokam.I think everyone should experience the divinity of the song and ragam.
The film composition by Vidyasagar in the movie Parthiban Kanavu "Alangkuyil koovum rayil" is a collection to the rich kapi raga presence in all forms of music.
