Illaya Nila - Guitar Prasanna rehearsal with Israeli, Bulgarian and Surinamese musicians!

[@shoshinsamurai7901]

And to realise this was composed in 1982, almost 40 years back. We are blessed to be living at the same time as Illayaraja.

[@manju43in]

Literally had tears listening to it! How rich complex music knowledge we Indians have, especially Ilayaraja is the boss of Indian music industry no one can come closer to his compositions . What a legend!

[@karthikpf]

What a treasure did I just land on! Salutations to swamigal Ilaiyaraaja, the emperor and boss of bass lines. Grateful to Prasanna for doing this video. Thank you sir

[@brucewayne2920]

The bass part is almost a countermelody that is parallel to the guitar. Such a geniuss!

[@manikandanmac1520]

I don't know anything about the Music. But now only I can understand the value/meaning of Maestro. Great great work.

[@srivatsansc2953]

Great analysis. Now we can imagine how Raja Sir had composed the score. His brain has to be insured like Einstein. Truly a wizard and emperor of music who has touched all forms of music from folk to Symphony. Proud that we are living in midst of him. Salute your genius.

[@GuitarSuresh]

Super detailed. Great to hear the bass parts separate. Thanks for breaking it down Prasannaji

[@ramramfam]

Ditto. Wonderful differentiation..finally getting some sense of the complexity of the amazing contrapuntal bit... btw, Suresh you've got a great channel going as well.

[@kcart4911]

Ilayaraja a genius.. you are wonderful Prasanna..😍😍

[@karthikcb350]

I don't know how I landed up here but it is a real treasure!! I still could not wrap my mind around the fact that how the idea of coming up with all these individual notes for separate instruments and combining together to give us legendary songs like this came to this person - Isaignani Ilayaraja. Another beautiful thing in this video is that though musicians in this video are from different language, culture, country etc. but they could easily communicate with each other in one language called music.......

[@GuitarSuresh]

Guys please watch this video to see how a master leader like Prasannaji is interpreting music for each instrument for these beautiful interludes and breaking it down with improv ! Amazing !! Salute to your amazing guitar knowledge & playing !

[@TheSeraphim75]

Thank you! This was special! I have always wanted to learn this song since i was 17. This gives us hope to get within 100 kms of your precision playing. Much appreciation. IR is in the zone of greats like Beethoven & Bach. A rare diamond from Tamil Nadu.

[@ittiamgg]

This is amazing guys! Huge Thanks and appreciation to Prasanna and team in breaking down and explaining the technicalities and intricateness in IR's compositions . As you say, the bass lines are complex and filled with counterpoints which are hallmarks of IR's scores. This session itself has taken 30 mins approx.. Imagine writing the full scores for all the instruments and record it with full orchestra and singers in under an hour. IR is beyond genius 🙏

[@gayathrimaheish6306]

Just a slight correction. It is under one shift of 8hours;not in an hour,for sure sir.

[@kasiraman.j]

@@gayathrimaheish6306 notes would be given in an hour.. orchestra will take time to copy notes and practice....but only an hour on raja sir part...think its impossible to create such a masterpiece with highly complex notations within short time..nobody achieved..

The wonder is how a man from a remote village can compose such amazing string scores . Hve anyone wondered on it ? Answer is IR a born genius

[@josesimonh]

Not disagreeing but he is trained in western and carnatic music.

[@sampathkumar6096]

@@josesimonh it's OK... Training is always there... *But what about the grasp...* see how difficult it is to decode this man's (Raaja the great) notations to get the one just close to its replica... As Raaja was booked as music director for many films, in the early stages of his Western classical music learning, Raaja couldn't attend the classic guitar class consistently to be learnt from Mr. Dhanraj Master... At one stage the master himself got fedup and told Raaja, here after he won't teach him.. Raaja immediately reacted I would appear for the classic guitar class even without attending the class... He told it, did it and came out successfully with 7 grade Gold Medal...
