Maestro A.R. Rahmans appearance in public events, leave
alone press meets, is a rare occurrence. And when he called the media to
address them, it was indeed a surprise
The occasion for this is the inauguration of his music school KM Conservatory
of Music. Addressing the media, Rahman
said that this school would be for students wishing to pursue music
courses either as a profession or a vocation.
He lamented that India, though rich and diverse in music, lacks symphony
orchestras. To set this right, the students trained in the institute will
pursue learning to play in a symphony orchestra. Initially, it will be formed
partially with Indian and foreign students; however, he aims at creating one
entirely for Indian students.
KM Conservatory of Music, for the time being, will be operated from the place
adjacent to his studio in Kodambakkam. But about three acres of land has
already been acquired in the suburbs in which class rooms, recording studios,
concert hall and residences for faculties and students residing outside the
city will be built. KM Conservatory of Music will operate in collaboration with
Audio Media Education, an Apple certified institution. It has also been
disclosed that talks are on with the University of Madras to grant Deemed
University status to this institution.
When the reporters quizzed him on the why he had named the school KM, the
maestro refused to divulge it and said the explanation behind the title will
remain a secret close to his heart.
On composing music for the films of the Superstar, Rahman said he had worked
with him several times earlier; his current projects with Rajini are Sultan the
Warrior and Robot.
