Hi All,
The following excerpt is from the Hindu (friday edition) http://www.hindu.com/fr/2005/10/14/stories/2005101401050200.htm Please note some of the by ARR that were identified as heavily based on Carnatic music. Some of us might know abt this already, but its a great recognition when it comes from popular (traditional) carnatic musicians and a good tribute to ARR. " Pleasant surprise The audience was pleasantly surprised to know that some of the modern songs such as `Engey Enathu Kavithai' (Sindhu Bhairavi), `Sri Ranga Ranga Nathanin Paadam' (Mohanam), `Kannaalane' (Keeravani), `Kannamoochi Enada' (Nattakurinji) and `Oru Deivam Thantha Poove' (Darbari Kanada) are steeped in Carnatic. Sampath's message was clear let children get familiar with ragas through film songs as the first step. Once the interest is created, teaching classical music becomes much easier. Sampath acknowledged with gratitude the inspiration and help he received from Madurai G. S. Mani, who has successfully presented programmes combining film songs and pure classical songs. On the flip side, the programme needs a bit of trimming and polishing. Also, he could have limited the number of slides and increased their duration. " ------------------------ Yahoo!
