Song : Oru Murai
Singers : K J Yesudas and K S Chitra
Music : M G Radhakrishnan
Movie : Manichitrathazha

I am very happy to present this song with Pradip Somasundaram who was the first person to learn this song from M.G Radhakrishnan and the first person to sing this song along with the live orchestra at Kodandapani Studio (S.P.B’s own studio at Saligramam). He had to sing this in a single take from start to end as he was singing for the orchestra to prapare the track. Later Chitra and K.J.Y dubbed their voices.
You can hear that very first original take here

And one more fact. “Ouseppachan” the famous Malayalee composer played violin along with the 30 member violinist group in all the songs for this film.And it was L. Vaidyanathan (from L.Shankar, L.Subramaniam, L.Vaidyanathan trio) who set the background music for the songs in the film. M.G Radhakrishnan just tuned the songs!!!

Special thanx to NVK sir for passing me the K Track:)

Introduction

2006-06-20T14:14:00.000+08:00

Hello friends,

I am here to share a few of my audio recordings after seeking inspiration from my singing friends Vidyu, Hemanth, Khan Sahab and Leena.

Eventhough I have been trained in Carnatic Classical for 10+ years, I sadly lost touch after our family migrated to Australia. I am slowly trying to regain the lost momentum...still a long long way to go ...:)

I hope to make many more friends who share the same interest. Please guide me in this path through ur valuable suggestions and comments. I will try my best to build on these for a better performance in the future.
