Maestro Magic....!!

His compositions.. a treat... was listening to his tunes... an orchestra.. i got a link from a friend.. who is hardcore fan of Raja.... he scrapped me the link in orkut... now listening for the 7 th time.. the tune is a great masterpiece of the Maestro... an orchestra performed in Italy for Italian audience.. the tune started with a low note.... the pitch was low.. and was more like a lullaby at the start...then came the amazing blend of beautiful tunes...
i consider myself lucky to be born in a place and in a era of the great Maestro.... Music keeps me moving... no matter where i am , what i do... without music.. nothing moves in my day...
used to listen only to selected tunes till my school days... started loving music because of my school .... and it is from their i learned about the freshness and fun in the music.. and that freshness .. u will find in the tunes of illayaraja... hearing to his tunes is like sipping an old wine in a brand new glass....My mom is a great fan to his tunes.... still there is freshness in his tunes..though he limited himself to Tamil and few other southern languages.. he has indeed fans following in North.. all because of his greatest musical hit Sadma.... a remake of Moondram pirai... starring Sridevi and Kamalhassan.. the movie with a greatest blend awesome music, touching story line moved millions in the country.... no one will forget the awesome song yeh zindagi gale laga le ...... and that was Gulzar's one of the best lyrics... and he enjoyed working with the maestro....
and there are many songs that did wonder for the milions who heard..... Illayaraja...... a phenomenon in Music... .. and there some great combo's that did magic ..

a perfect architect of beautiful tunes.... some of his melodies...makes us connected with nature... "senthalampoovil vanthaadum thendral".. wat a song.. the song ... beautiully pucturised too...
