Two friends. Two wonderful singers. Came together for a chat for M-Pod.
One of them interviewed the other. The "meri awaz suno"
fame Pradip Somasundaram interviews state award winning
singer Gayathri in this week's M-Pod episode.
M-Pod has covered an interview with Pradip earlier and
you're all familiar with him now. Through my blog and M-Pod.
I think I don't have to explain more about the wonderful
talent like Pradip. You know Gayathri through the songs
like Thumbi kinnaaram
from the movie " Naran", Chaanchaadiyaadi
from "Makalkku", Enthe
nee kanna (state award winning song), Deena
dayaalo raama from
"Arayannangalude veedu" etc. You also heard her singing
in Maestero Ilaiyaraja's Thiruvaasagam.
In this conversation they
talk about:
- Gayathri as a person
- Her entry into the musical career
- Advantages/disadvantages of learning Carnatic & Hindustani music for a singer
- Different styles/schools in Hindustani music - With vocal examples
- What makes a singer to stand apart from the other singers
- Song from the movie Makalkku
Please let Pradip and Gayathri know your thoughts on the
episode and their singing. Let them know your wishes and
prayers for them in the following email IDs:
Pradip:

Gayathri:

PART II OF
THE PROGRAM WILL BE FOLLOWED NEXT WEEK.
Special thanks to Sri. Pradip Somasundaram and Ms.
Gayatri for their un-conditional support.
