'Ramya' said it right!!
"......As I listened to the rising and falling cadences of the Oratorio, my eyes closed, i could feel the skin of my hand, the back of my neck break out in goose pimples. Apart from that physical feeling of ecstacy, I hardly was conscious of my self. Schopenhauer?!
I don't know. Maybe it was Illayaraja......."
That is the best way to listen to this great composition!
Closing your eyes and setting for an unforgettable journey!
Thank you 'P' for this excellent experience!
YIA!!
As a fellow contributor and wellwisher to TBI, Iam surprised how my voicing of a true concern can be deemed a shameless act. If IR and Bhava disprove the prevailing facts about their vocal prowess, I will only be too happy to suspend my concern for this case .
Dear 'Thumburu',
That's all I said.... Pl. read my post again. Thanks.
YIA!!
TISK, I assume you have heard the whole album. The link above talks about 4 songs in non-western mode set to appeal to the lay man(and only 2 songs as oratorio). So those 4 songs,are they just like "Guru ramana geetham" and other devotional albums or are they still a little different? If its not appropriate for you to answer this right now, I'll understand.
I thought the entire album had the orchestra backing.
THANKS FOR ASKING!
The entire album is orchestrated by the Hungaryan Symphony Orchestra and only one song, which is about 23 minutes long, has English counter point with chorus in English and tamil as well. This piece is a selective version[condensed] of 'Sivapuraanam' in Thiruvaasakam. his is something very unique and our Indian audience has never experienced one like this!
The rest of the songs are set to different tunes appealing to different types of 'common man'! ...one for a couple, a loner, one for youngsters[teens], one for seekers, one for those care-free man, and one for a western audience. Each one has solo, duet, chorus, and symphony notes.They have nothing to do with the earlier works you had mentioned.
BTW, this is my perception only on hearing them but may differ from person to person!
You will undertand what I mean when you hear the CD!
And, that will be the topic of discussion here from July 1st onwards, i believe!
YIA!!
