Raja's theoritical Approach
Yesterday I was in a telephonic discussion with Shashi - (also a DF'er) about Raja's decline in the market.
Essence of our discussion:
We all know Raja writes his score without touching any instrument. This has paved a way for Raja to become very alogorithamic. He is forced into this as he is not hearing it, meaning his scores are very theoritical. A good western classical musician will predict Raja's score after hearing few bars.
He has to change this type of composing, he has to compose something new using his HEART instead of his BRAIN . We were able to calculate the bar lengths of the counter points and BGM that he would place, everything Proved to be very very theoritical approach.
Though theoritically scores are complicated, over a period of time it starts sounding the same for a musical illitrate (masses)
Many of his greatest fans are here this DF (including me), as a responsible fan we can find more about this and convey the message to him somehow.
Statutory Warning: This topic is not to hurt Raja's ablity, there is no doubt in his ablity .I know the fact writing theoritical music is not easy. Theoritically anything is complicated.

ir is so rare a talent that to repeat, match or even imitate what he has done is going to be very very difficult. need someone equally original.

Mannil indha kaadhal anri, may not be the best example for pre-written lyrics. I think the song was composed by Gangai Amaran, though he was nepotistic enough to let the movie portray it as Paavalar's creation
Any Bharathiar song would fit the bill I guess.

I have a question:
Is YSR following THEORITICAL approach of IR or following the PRACTICAL one of ARR?

D. Raj Sekhar: moot point, debatable, arguable but not a clarifiable question, nor winnable or resoluble, nor practical to discussable. the theoretical approach is such a postulation as the string theory - we have to go thru dimensions using ramanujan' partition theory to arrive at any senseable conclusion, that itself not concludible. but keep it audible... we will get somewhere ....:---)

Are some of the Able's available in the Dictionary.. but IR was ABLE to prove theoretically and practically.

super naansance,
Sorry, I couldn't get a word of what you said. It looks like English but I couldn't understand what you mean.
Can you kindly rephrase it? ;)
