Sudha: You asked me to write about our music party. I completely forgot about it! :( Here it is:
We finished dinner around 9:30 PM and started the music session. I opened with the Tamil song 'yEru mayil yEri viLaiyaadum mukam ondre'. Then our daughter in law sang. Then we let the children sing. People sang in Tamil,Sanskrit,Telugu, Kannada, MalayaLam, Hindi, Gujarati and English. There were people with origins in Tamilnadu,KeraLa, Andhra, Karnataka,Gujarat, Maharashtra,Haryana,Kashmir,UP,W.Bengal,SriLanka and Germany! :)
First half was devotional set to ragas. Second half was mostly cinema songs. I prompted singers with a few Hindi songs- Dekh Tere sansar ki haalat, Brindavan ke krishna kanhaiya, Bandh preeti phool dor,jhoome jhoome dil mera,....... By the time we finished it was 1:30 AM. We went to bed after 3 AM.
Tamil saying is 'sevikku uNavu illaadhapodhu siridhu vayitrukkum eeyappadum'. :) We reversed the order to provide energy for the singers to go for four hours or more! :lol: Aunty made idli,saambar,chutney, vegetable pulav, thayir saadham, vegetable curry and a sweet for dinner (as much as I remember). Tea after dinner. Idli saambaar was the main attraction for our North Indian friends!
You,kugan and others in this thread have a standing invitation for the party next year. Start practicing a few songs! :)
It is OK even if you sing 'karupputhaan enakku pudicha coloru'. :lol: One guest usually asks me to sing 'pambarak kaNNaale kaadhal sangathi sonnaaLe'. :)
vathiyarayya...
I am waiting to taste aunty's ( vathiyaramma ? ) idli, sambhar.
You have mentioned about it infinite times till now... :slurp:
adutha varusham varen... enna song venum-nu sollunga ? I am ready.. ready.. ready...
I can sing "baa baa black sheep" or "twinkle twinkle little star" or "Jack and jill" or "Ding dong bell" ..
neyar viruppam !!
Thanks Rajraj uncle for sharing about your music party as well. Music therinja gang irundhaal neram povadhe theriyaadhu.
BTW karupputhan enaku pidicha colour and paattu. I like this song very much.
Oru chinna caution : Pappava paada vainga no problem, ana pesa mattum solladheenga..... Kadi thaanga mudiyadhu.
He will say pallu illadha pappanu. Risk edukadheenga.
sudhaji...
Risk edukkuradhu namma vaathiyarayyavukku rusk saapidura madhiri..
