As we know, carnatic music heavily emphasis melody.

While western classical music heavily emphasizes harmony.

Carnatic musicians generally prefer sticking to tradition. But what if we try to mix the two genres?

Here is a video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-wqJTgMzrw of a small version of Chinnanchiru kiliye that I did mixing Carnatic melody with western harmony.

I'd be interested on the opinions of the possibilities here.
