Magic of Melody:
This piece , is not only for the Tamilians, but for any ardent lover, of music;Because , music transcends all barriers of Race and Language.
To, appreciate this, it is good to know something about its lyricist, a saga in tamil poetries, called, Subramanya Bharathi.He was a multi-faceted personality: nationalist, poet, journalist, dramatist.His poetries appeal , to the heart and mind.They don’t drown you with long hours of inactivity, .instead , they awaken.He was one of the pioneers in South India, for women education and empowerment.Infact , he was inspired by shelley’s poetries.
The unique prospect , in this music is , most of the songs are composed in the ragas that had been mentioned by the poet , himself.Suresh Gopalan and Bombay jayashree have , instilled spirit and life , to these poems.They have created an album , which even the lay man can sense and appreciate.Jayashree, will definitely widen her circle of audience after this one.Music can do miracles.This one , will definitely relieve you from stress and distress, as the soft hands of some divine angel, caressing your face , can induce happiness, renew, refresh, and revitalize.
There are eleven songs:
each one needs a special applause.Especially, ninnai charanaidaindhenin the rythm of snake charmer’s is capricious.It vibrates with the , words and voice.
Colours of joy will heighten your spirits.uyire , will define , meaning for life, and unfold tonnes and tonnes of happiness, a state of heavenly bliss.Any of these. is not an exaggeration;it deserves more praise.
