Could you please let us know when if at all the DVD is going to be released and what it would contain?

yeskarthi question is valid. yeskarthi wanted to know if TIS AUDIO is going to come in Dolby 5.1 format.

I dont think DVD audio is popular in indian music industry. So dont expect the same. The only DVD audio that I have seen so far are for Boys and Manmadhan.
Thanks
The much talked about DVD is not yet out anywhere!
IIR is still making some corrections here and there and hence the DVD hasn't gone into final production as of today.
Fr.Jegath is hopeful of getting it underway by today and an official announcement will be made at our site in the next 24 hrs.
The proposed DVD will have a few bits of the songs in the background and will mainly be covering the Hungary recording and a few interviews by the participating artists including IIR and Fr.Jegath. I have only seen a rough version of it and I understand more corrections have been made since then and I am not in a position to comment on the final edition.
Pl. bear with us and we will announce once we hear something positive soon.
I am also trying to get the dance number played out by the Stella Mary's students during the Launch in Chennai as a bonus and let me hope that it materializes.
Please get that one extra original CD/DVD for yourselves to see some cheers on us!
YIA!
No it doesn't make it legitimate. If it did, how would you interpret so many like viyay,Naaz,etc who have responded (and still doing). The idea was to redirect ppl, who you know would be posting even if the digressions were deleted, and keep this topic sane. No other intentions. Ok, let's stop this here.Quote:

I have just one word to describe the first 2 tracks - Ecstatic.
Knowing Sivapuranam verses very well( atleast the sequence ) , i noticed that IR had juggled the verses in the second track very much. I do not want to start another controversy here, but wanted to know if it is a common practice for thiruvaasagam verses to be sung in any order.. I did not see any distortion in meaning as each line is sort of indepenedent of the others, i guess.. Can somone comment on it..
The Polla Vinayen track is really heavy duty.. Especially towards the end - with the choir/chorus weaving in and out. man that was cool !.
The booklet calls one portion of the track as a Cappella . can anyone throw more light on this one.. I guess it is a category where there is just a solo voice and no music at all..not sure.. Is it a commonplace in a Oratario.?

I will write again after I get thru all the tracks..but yet to come out of the shock of Polla Vinayen.. It gave me goosebumps at a couple of places..( Eesandi potri, Enthai adi potri , neyathe nindra nimalanadi potri is one place and Maasatra Sothi Malarsudare is another ..- the chorus is amazing. )
cry_sandiego,
Your guess on A cappella partly right. "A cappella" is vocal/choral music without any supporting instrumental music. It need not necessarily be a song with a solo voice. A song which uses multiple voices (like a choir) without any musical instruments is also an A cappella.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Greetings to everyone:
I am writing this from Toronto. For the last few days I was trying to get the "original" Thiruvasagam CD from the local stores here, sad to say none of them have it. BUT they are selling the pirated copies for CAD$ 5. I am very sad and preety upset. I mentioned my dissapointments with the shop keepers. Obvisouly they care less. not one store..Toronto's 3 popular Tamil Video/Audio stores doing the same thing.
My Question is? Is this project legaly registered? Copyright !!!
If so can someone do something about such activities?
It is very sad, People have gone through so much to get this projet done selling their properties, putting forward all their life time savings...
I am determined to get the original and original only. I don't know why they did not market the CD here.
I have no problem mentioning the names of the Stores.
As Tamils we should appriciate the boldness and courage of people like IR and all those involved in bringing up Thiruvasagam in simple form for us.
