Booked for the show1000 rubees ticket..
IR / KH / Sujatha / Bala / BC Lara / Curtly Ambrose
Met KR today . Some updates about the show .
1) This show is very very personal to Raaja. Not even KR knows what exactly he is going to present . Raja wants to keep this very secret , to his heart , only to his fans . He has planned everything - where the harmonim should be kept, his seat everything - KR told me that he has never seen Raaja sir this energetic and passionate about a show .
2) There will be a small orchestra for this show - 10 piece orchestra . It should be a different feel for us . He will definetly cater to the passionate lovers of his music - thats for sure .
3) About the cost, its very very expensive . From the figure they told me , they will have a loss for the first show - its only when they do it in other cities they can meet or just have minimal profits . Its really HUGE money spent for us .
4) Raaja is very particular about a zero disturbance in the show. Strictly no mobile ringing, or whistling during talks . He is going to discuss about music for passionate lovers and doesnt want thsi to be diluted like normal film song ( OK - we may disagree here - but its just his view )
5) Some more new initiatives will come in - please stay tuned !!!
6) There will be a Q& A session at the end of this . Considering that Raaja sir sensitive, the questions will be filtered first . If there are any questions that needs to be asked, pleas epost here - i Will collect and send it to KR !! Yes , we would love to ask Raaja directly, but just 1 insensitive question may upset him . KR was cool ,upbeat about the show and personally requested all passionate raaaja lovers to attend the show . It is definetly not a normal show as telecasted in a TV or played in Nehru stadium - it is for die hard music fans for sure
Please do post your questions here - I shall consolidate it and send it to KR.

Sundarrajan (*not sure) - standing with his hand touching the chair on which Raja sir is seated.
Sudhakar (*not sure) - standing between Raja Sir and RD Burman. with a Black and white stripped Tshirt
V.S Narashiman (*not sure)- sitting left to Raja Sir
*not sure - they all look different now. can't confirm.
Do you know others? share with us please. I guess this photo must have been taken when RD.Burman came to chennai to record Poo Mazhai Pozhiyudhu songs (remember the famous nadhiya nadhiya nile nadhiya song) somewhere between 1986 and 1987
Note: Raja sir is not in his traditional white shoes. Also check the pant and shirt, idhuvum nalla thaan irukku.

Ramki,
Please consider this question
Will there be any concert arranged specially comprising only the background scores / themes of his earlier works? In turn, the same recording of the concert can be officially released for the passionate fans who are so curious about this BGM.

"Poo mazhai pozhiyudu" is by Lakshmikanth Pyarelal ? Isn't it ? It certainly doesn't contain the class of RDB !
Ramki, thanks for the information! Well, I don't really know how many of our questions would reach raaja, but muyarchi panni dhaan pappOmE nu thonuchu.
Here are some that I have in mind so far:
(Addressed to Raaja)
1) I see you as a composer who has been constantly evolving in his musical style, techniques and sound. In my perception, this probably is one of the most crucial aspects behind you being ‘current’ through four decades of constantly changing music scene.
a) How do you view your evolution as a composer?
b) How much of this is a result of progression/alteration in your musical ideologies and how much of it is driven by industry trends?
c) How do you strike a balance between these two?
2) On different occasions, you have quoted several musicians as your favorites and how they’ve been inspirational to you, namely WCM masters and Indian music directors from the past. Although I completely concur with your philosophy of ‘all music is the same; only our interpretations are different’, I have a special fondness for certain elements in your music like influences of jazz and rock music (especially jazz rock and progressive rock). Can you share with us your interest in these genres and some of the artists who have inspired you?
3) The music industry, since the last two decades or so, has seen technology taking giant strides, impacting the whole cycle of music making, starting from composing to recording, release and distribution. Keeping the other areas aside, I’d like to particularly focus on the musical aspects, namely composing and playing, which in my humble opinion, form the heart and soul of any composition. Having grown up listening predominantly to your music along with other artists from the 60s, 70s and 80s, I’m a huge fan of acoustic music/real instruments, the effect and impact of which, I feel, have never been replicated/matched by synthesized music. It is also my opinion that increasing dependency on synthesized/packaged music has led to a drastic drop in the quality of musicians and on music as a whole. The thought that we might see the day when there are no more real/live instruments, leaving synthesized music our only option, scares and pains me thoroughly.
As a senior musician and composer who has lived through many years of live music and real playing, do you think a revival can be brought about in this? What is it that could be done to make the common audience and music industry embrace and celebrate live/real music playing again?
