Aagaaya Gangai ...!


Its truly a joyful occasion to express my extreme happiness about Isaigyani through my blog. Raja’s music is my constant companion in life. I love to sing songs composed by Illayaraja. I have the strong belief that one can improve one's singing capability by singing the songs composed by Illayaraja. He had created an astounding environment with his music and made people to feel truly about his competence and the excellence he'd should in his music.

Particularly this song “Aagaya Gangai “,Ilaiyaraaja has given Madhyamavathi in quite pure form. He even tried to give this song with rare combination of voice of Malaysia vasudevan with Janaki.

Mr.Sukumar, who is a chemical Engineer from Egypt has joined me in this song. This is his first song with me. He is very passionate towards music and I am very happy to introduce him to this audio blog world. Hope you all enjoy !

Thanks for visiting my blog. Just came here out of curiosity and My God.. some lovely songs. I have bookmarked your blog.

I feel your voice has resemblance to one of my favorite singers MinMini. I am not sure if anyone has told you this before. Keep up the good work.

very nice. Just ran into your blog and it is so nice. This song is indeed a blast from the pas.

BTW, how do you guys get all the elaborate backgrounds for the songs? Karaoke or programming some synthesizer (sorry i am naive in that area).

I liked the fact that Sukumar's voice seemed to be the same type as Malaysia's :) If I may leave one small, constructive criticism for Sukumar - please try to focus more on differentiating ள from ல.

hi sukumar, I meant difference between the la in vengalam (brass) and the la in mangalam (auspicousness)

If I may suggest this (you probably know this and so I feel a bit uncomfortable):
For the first one, your tongue I believe touches near the edge of the roof of your mouth just above your front teeth. For the latter, the tongue folds a bit to reach the middle of the roof of your mouth. But not so much as it goes all the way back as that it would result in zha as in pazham.

Fantastic, both of you.

The track is not very good, and Sowmya, I don't think you have used your husky voice as well as you did in 'Hari Om Hari'.

Do try it again, but only with a better track.
