mr. madhukar,
u say u r an arr fan and the first message u post
criticises him. what kind of a fan u r. what is the meaning of
complete composer? no one is 'complete'. but surely rahman is
someone who comes closest to being complete. regarding the symphony.
rahman himself had apologised for his failure. that is d greatness
of the man. i think even u shud show the greatness and apologise for
ur mail.

certainly not my 1st favourite MD.He is just one of my favourite
MD.Accordiong to me, ARR is miles away from becoming a complete
composer.It has been almost 15 years since he has come in to the
industry and he is yet to compose a complete symphony.ARR recently
performed in a renowned london based philharmonic orchestra and to
our disappointment he hardly impressed anyone as a conductor.ARR was
only the 2nd Asian to have performed at the Royal LOndon
Philharmonic Orchestra after Illayaraaja. Please dont think i am
just against ARR. ARR himself confessed that he failed miserably as
a conductor and promised a much better show next time.
> Coming to his composing, he has showed his class in a lot of
songs.His electronic music pleases everyone in this world. But to me
music is not only the electronic rhythm, pure orchestration is what
a best composer strives for.With due credits to ARR, he has
orchestrated mind blowing pieces.But the amount of orchestration he
uses as against his usual rhythm is very meagre.Symphonies are all
about orchestration.As an indian,i would want ARR be known as a
great composer and conductor because nowadays we can see number of
music directors coming up with their own electronic rhythms in
varied styles, but can anyone of you single out a great orchestrator
among them.Giving a hit song is not all about music.Eventhough ARR
started his carrer with a lot of orchestration, he has relied more
on elctronic rhythm than orchestration, which is the purest form of
music.I would love to see ARR as an orchestrator than an electronic
composer.
> Please note that I have not posted this message to hurt
anyone.i just found this topic to be intersting and i have just
aired my views.hope you all take it in the right sense. It is
because that I really admire ARR, I had to disagree with a few of
you. Your valuable comments are welcome.
