Tough job for ARR isn't it. Each fan wants him to explore some kind of music. :)
I do understand what you mean though. For what it's worth, I'd like some orchestral sufi exploration. Have you heard of French/Morrocan film composer Armand Amar? The following two tracks from the soundtrack to Bab'Aziz are the finest I've heard from him in this genre- Poem of the atoms (vocals by Haroun Teboul) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ex9UWYhVAbE Poem of the atoms #2 (vocals by Salar Aghili) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iY2o0O6K0AI It's amazing what a powerful voice and minimalistic (and almost brooding) strings can achieve. ________________________________ From: AJ <purev...@yahoo.com> To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sat, September 4, 2010 9:50:12 PM Subject: [arr] I too am missing ARR's semiclassical/sufi numbers This is not a post to complain or gripe. As much as I'm enjoying ARR's international music of late, I sure wish he'd compose for a film again with better scope for more traditional Indian semi classical music and Sufi music. Of course, in Delhi 6, we heard quite a bit of folk/semi classical/Sufi music and that's the last album we heard ARR in those genres. When will be the next film we hear ARR compose such type of music? I don't know. Does anyone know? ...
