Magic of Melody. Review on Atma:Soul - Bombay Jayashree

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'sis 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.
