You can realise God as you progress in music: Ilayaraja๐ŸŽน๐ŸŽผ๐ŸŽผ๐ŸŽป๐ŸŽธ๐ŸŽบ๐ŸŽท

“You all have done ‘punyam.' That is why you are all learning music at Tiruvaiyaru,” said musician Ilayaraja to the students of the Government Music College at Tiruvaiyaru on Friday.
In a tete-a-tete with the students, the maestro said that it was like “kshetradanam” for musicians like him to come to Tiruvaiyaru. “If that is so, how privileged are the students who live in Tiruvaiyaru and learn music! At a time when students are opting for computer science, medicine and engineering, you students have chosen music, which is one of the best and peaceful courses. You can realise God as you progress in music; nothing in between.”

“Thyagaraja was not a professional musician. He did not sing for situations. He was music himself. That was why he asked the king, ‘Nidhi sala sugama?' and explained to him that Bhagwan Shri Rama's ‘sannidhi' is the sugam (comfort) for him.”

Asked by the students to tell them about his guru, Ilayaraja said, “Guruvarul is natural like a wind, and everyone requires Guruvarul”.
Elaborating on music, he said that Carnatic music alone was not music. There was western music, jazz etc. Music is like the sky — without limitations.

To another question why his songs on mother (Thai) are more sweet and melodious, and if there was any specific reason, Ilayaraja said: “I consider all women as mother. I compose poems for any female considering her as mother.”
He was presented with a bust of German composer Bach. Ilayaraja had a lot to say about Bach to the students. Bach used to walk miles together to listen to good music. Ilayaraja gave the bust of Bach to the college as he thought it would be fit for young students to see and know about Bach.

Mridhanga vidwan T.V. Gopalakrishnan accompanied Ilayaraja during his visit to the college. Umamaheswari, principal of the college, welcomed Ilayaraja with a song, “Arivalayathukku Varuga”, along with her students.

RD Burman: 5 Reasons Why ‘Pancham Da’ Is One of India’s Greatest Composers! Despite his phenomenal body of work, this musical genius went on to win only three Filmfare Awards for Best Music Director. # In the pantheon of legendary Indian film composers, Rahul Dev Burman stands apart. Even though it’s been two and a half decades since RD Burman (aka Pancham) has passed away, his music continues to captivate the imagination of musicians and music aficionados to this day. The sheer breadth of his music, allied with a unique ability to not only make folk and classical music accessible to the modern listener, but present them in an original, yet contemporary manner for young listeners was, and remains, a game changer. It has clearly influenced the modern masters of mainstream film scores like AR Rahman, Amit Trivedi, Vishal Bharadwaj, and Shankar, Ehsaan and Loy. The melodies and harmonies he composed continue to captivate listeners even today. Although his music is steeped i

Throughout human history and across all cultures, people have produced and enjoyed music. Despite its ubiquity, the musical capacity is rarely studied as a biological function. Music is typically viewed as a cultural invention. The evidence bearing on the biological perspective of the musical capacity is reviewed. Related issues, such as domain-specificity, innateness, and brain localization, are addressed in an attempt to offer a unified conceptual basis for the study of music processing.The study of the biological foundations of music by bringing together the fields of genetics, developmental and comparative research, neurosciences, and musicology. ๐ŸŽผ๐ŸŽบ๐ŸŽป๐ŸŽท๐ŸŽธ๐Ÿฅ๐ŸŽน๐ŸŽผ๐Ÿ’“ Santoshkumar B Pandey at 11.50Am.

The Beatles: The Greatest Band  in the History of the World ๐ŸŽน๐ŸŽผ๐ŸŽผ๐ŸŽป๐ŸŽธ๐ŸŽท๐ŸŽบ๐ŸŽผ๐ŸŽผ๐Ÿ’๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ’ž The Beatles are greatest band in the history of the world. There. I said it. You’d be hard pressed to prove me wrong. The work of John, Paul, George and Ringo is some of the best music the world has to offer. When you take into account the Beatles’ vast catalogue of quality albums and songs, their financial success, and their seemingly never ending appeal to the masses through new mediums, they truly can be considered the greatest band of all time. They didn’t just write songs. They wrote the soundtrack to our lives. The span of their career in comparison to their actual time together is unbelievable. From the first gritty guitar chords that rattled the windows of small clubs across Europe, to the modern 3-D, computer generated Fab Four bursting forth in vivid color in living rooms all around the world; the Beatles have captured the hearts of people young and old. It’s unlikely that these four mop
