V.S. Narasimhan, the lead Violinist at Ilay's Orchestra had a superb debut with "Acchamillai Acchamillai" by KB. (Remember the haunting melody of Susheela's Avarampoovu??)
After a loooong hiatus he did come out with a very good score but this time with a flop movie, PAsa Malargal (I think.. it has Revathi and A.Swamy and a whole lot of rich, spoilt kids).
Where is he now. He for once was ORIGINAL.... had IR's influence, no doubt, but ORIGINAL nevertheless. (Mr. deva, are you listening?)
Where is he now?
Whenever I listen to HOW TO NAME IT, where he was the lead violinist, I cannot but feel sorry for him, for the lukewarm response the press and public has given to this talented guy. Any news????

Hello, Mr R Chandrasekhar,
Are you the one whose name is listed in the instrumentalists of HTNI CD? If so, my very best regards and wishes! Please keep posting with nice information like the one above.

The album cover says that NOTES for all the songs in Resonance are available upon request. I think its a great idea. Our WCM experts in this forum can find it useful.

Dear Mr Narasimhan,
I have read somewhere in these threads that the violin piece played by Kamal in Raja Parvai (at the end of which nobody starts clapping until prompted by one small blind girl Tamil Selvi, after which the whole auditorium joins her!) is in Panthuvarali and played by you. We would like to hear it from you! Is there any code of conduct which prevents instrumentalists like you from disclosing such details to the common man?

To my understanding, Both Chandra & Puru has been with IR since the very beginning (early 80's). Puru is a great percussionist,(Basically Drums). Most of the early nos of IR have had his solid contribution.
R.Chandrasheakar, who is the brother of Puru is basically a Key board player. He is also great at computerized musics & handling of softwares such as Cakewalk. I heard that he was among one who assisted IR even in Hey Ram. I think he is serving as the president of Tamil Nadu Music Association(you can see his posting in this forum).
Just listen to the music of Priya,HTNI etc, to feel their great work.

V.S. Narasimhan is my uncle. He has recently released an unbelievable work called "Resonance." I am so pleased to see that people know about him, he truly is an amazing musician who has not received the recognition he deserves. His new work is his best ever, it arranges Indian music for a quartet (2 violins, viola, cello all playing Indian music together). He was also featured in a documentary recently. If you ever want any info on him or any contact for any of this music, e-mail
vrviyengar@aol.com
cheers,
Rahul

Rahul, is it possible Mr. VSN to write a volume on the last 30 years of TFM at Prasad studios. I've seen many MDs there at the same time, IR, TR. TR was fun, because he used to hum the tune in a very informal atmosphere, full of noise and highly disorganized, next door IR with VSN will be leading the score wirting in a hihgly sacrosacnt mood. This will be great if VSN with others wrote about extraordinary songs, incidents, meetings, visits ( i heard that LP and a few other Hindi composers used to drop by to meet IR)
One point, MSV was assisting IR, that was peresentd on TValso, such stories in a volume will be treasured by south Indians.
