Dear Anbu (Singapore),
Thank you for your very kind comments. I am a very lucky person because I spend my life doing what I like, which is composing music.
It was very interesting to hear that you witnessed the Ilayaraja honoring ceremony on TV. I was flown from London to Madras specially for it. It was an incredible experience and I shall never forget it. Ilayaraja and I became very close friends and I have tried to encourage him to get his symphony released. I believe he was hurt by a critics review, and this is the reason it has not been released. I had the privilege of conducting the recording sessions with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, in London, and we all believe it deserves to be released. The trouble is that critics are capable of destroying sensitive artists and have done it throughout the history of music. The more one knows a piece of music the more one loves it, and the stupid critics are incapable of judging anything they have never heard before. They have seldom been right. There is a wonderful book by Nicolas Slonimsky entitled LEXICON OF MUSICAL INVECTIVE. It is a history of musical criticism since Beethoven's time. It shows how the critics have crucified every great composer without exception! I will contact Illayaraja and tell him about your kind remarks and that he owes it to us all to make his symphony available.
I send you my best wishes,

My experience with HTNI concert at Anna library recently makes me beg for a better planning on the day of the concert for this one. It was not a great experience before the concert (though the concert by itself was great) as there was not seat numbers mentioned in tickets and I had to go in a very long queue.....will Indiastage or somebody else rethink the strategy here!!
Also, I really welcome the timing of the concert (9.30-1.30) as it means only people who really craves for IR stuff are invited indirectly. I think it is something to do with the availability of the hall/musicians....
The venue, I think, will be a mixed bag in terms of hall acoustics as there is ramp arrangements of seats. it will be a flat-horizontal seating arrangement. This means, people in front will have better view experience...
whatever it may be; it is going to IR all the way! i will be there for sure!
Any thought!
