Maestro Ilaiyaraja New Albums 2011 - Hello Jaihind / Sri Rama Rajyam

[jaiganes]

Now listening to poovak kelu..
Ghatam is the primary percussion instrument in the prelude as well as the interludes - kinda nod at Suseendran's first MD Selvaganesh.
The melody is absolutely perfect - Karthik is needless to mention - soft and apt to sing such a song.
Second interlude is all synth with very neat counterpoints with a prominent bass and drum set arrangements giving a brief centre stage to Raja's typical flute.
Irish cellos begin the second charanam - Shreya comes to fore there.. The song as mentioned by Mumbai Ramki reminds the melody (odan thannil)from Pazhassi raja in a way the pallavi sounds..
