Ramesh, You hit it right on. I LOVE the samples you provided..God if only ARR could do something like this in private....oh man! I have not not heard of Armand Amar. ARR probably knows his music.
Ah, yes....minimalism in music....something less frequent in ARR's music these days.... I love brooding, soft, low strings that set a certain ambiance and then building from there.....so haunting and goose pimple inducing stuff! Thanks for the samples. Really enjoyed them. Orchestral Sufi.....wish ARR could do more.... --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, Ramesh R <triscod...@...> wrote: > > Tough job for ARR isn't it.
