Two months after its arrival, I finally found time time and touched the beauty that is MOTIF ES. The stunning sounds urged me to compose at least a small piece. And here is the flute piece is shudhdha saaveri ragam. Just a "ching chak" with flute and piano. This may be considered a prelude to the music that I may be composing in the future.

Your attempt is really good.
ReplyDeletea very good first attempt.... expecting a loooooot more from you....
ReplyDeleteGood one Murali. Would have been better it was atleast a minute. Motif does have some wonderful voices, especially the flutes. I don't wknow hether you got the chance to listen to my "flutey", if not, pls. do so and let me know you comments. I also used the motif for that.
ReplyDeleteVery refreshing..! I too felt it could have been a little longer.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, could you write something on how to interpret Carnatic notes such as S1, G2..etc. etc to western notations? I want to learn Carnatic Ragas from the web and they all show N3, G2 and so on...I have no clues.
Thanks in advance.

ReplyDeletethanks. The last time I heard, anybody except Hariharan charges Rs 10,000 for a song. That is the market rate. Hariharan charges 50,000 it seems.
Good one...must say 'short & sweet'. Reminds me of a mallu song "Mizhi ariyaathe vannu" frm the movie 'Niram'.
ReplyDeleteFelt very Eastern (the chinese lady upstairs was probably swaying when I played this, i could hear her stomps...so much for living in cardboard boxes!).
ReplyDeleteWell done! gives a fresh feeling..as if i am standing in a valley, and the cool breeze has just brought a light fragrance of fresh tea leaves.
kaunquest - that was funny :)
ReplyDeletemagic - I am heavily influenced by mallu film music due to my unceasing admiration for KJY :)
hey murali..refreshing piece of music dude..really liked it..hope to see more (i guess its break time, assuming that break time applies to graduate students hehehe)
ReplyDeleteMurali:
ReplyDeleteNice piece...one suggestion from a listener's (layman's) perspective. Try the same piece with a reduced tempo?
Just a suggestion...
Cheers,
