Thank you guys, I met Isaignani, was one of the best experiences of my life❤
please describe your experience thru a
video
Wow❤
Please make a video about that experience
@@karmugilan420 sir, he was very kind to contact and spend 1.5 hours of his precious time. He showed me his office/computer/piano.. He is a music saint for sure. But I am certainly not going to make an online hype out of it.
Gifted x
I keep saying this... People don't understand what colossal work Isaignani has done in all his songs. Most people are addicted to his songs but they don't really understand the music behind them, the musical language behind it. Lidia, you are doing an amazing job in bringing that musical language and emotions behind his works. Kudos to your work.
Btw, I keep saying this in all the reaction videos, I was there when this happened. The reason why the audience laughed was the entire auditorium was quiet for 5 mins. Imagine keeping rabid fans of Raja sir silent for the entire 5 minutes. So when someone accidentally made a noise, it made someone else uncomfortable since Raja sir was writing music. That person let out an uncomfortable laugh, which became contagious and everyone laughed. Then the entire hall went back to silence again.
For most of us, it felt like we were all meditating for the entire five minutes because he was so focused and was on another plane while writing the score. Unforgettable experience.
Btw, Raja sir writes all his music in western notation.
PS: I have sent you Instagram DM. Hope you like what I sent.
will reply on your DM
Just analyse his music second by second. Each second is different and the instruments he uses for every second is astonishing. Is it musical extravaganzy?
@@LidiaKotlovaPianoStudio Do emotions vary from culture to culture??
Well said, not for nothing he is called 'Isai gnani'. For those who don't know Tamil it means Musical genius
Exactly
He's the only Indian music director who writes the music. He says " Silence is also a music "
Only world music composer
@StarPlanet56789 He is an Indian , not a foreigner ,
if so I have to say both MGR and superstar Ajithkumar are born Malayalees and Keralites .... 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂👍👍
@@vjsilentvalley7134 yes why not MGR is menon Malayali, Rajinikanth(Shivaji Roa Gaikwad) is gaikwad Marati and Ajithkumar telungu.
it's not a problem to mention where they belongs to.
@@vjsilentvalley7134 இளையராஜா அய்யா தமிழர்(Illayaraja is Tamil).
7:23 He's been doing that for 40 years, Lidia.
45 to be precise
Haha was actually waiting for someone to say this
It's a shame it was supposed to be a "Masterclass Event". It turned out to be talent showcase event where the hall was filled with plain fans like me (so is the host), not music students or aspiring professionals. Ilaiyaraaja himself was disappointed when audience were asking him to perform instead of asking him technical questions and gaining some knowledge. A Maestro like him deserves talents like you in the audience to ask intriguing technical questions. He would be very happy to teach. Unfortunately, India is yet to accustom for those kind of events.
He is a legendary artist. Thanks for sharing your view of his composition. Hats off இசைஞானி இளையராஜா ❤️
Brilliant explanation. He has been writing western notations for all his 1000 plus movies 6000 plus songs and innumerable BGMs right from his career beginning from 1976. Only very very few who can write music in India
Thank you for honoring my request and reacting to this. We are the "80's, kids" grown up with mother's milk and ilaiyaraaja's music. We all just love Raja sir and his music, but the your explaination has given me a new found respect for him. Thank you.
BTW, If the director aaked him to keep the same melody but changed the situation to a father rushing to see his new born baby, Maestro would have done it right there.
😍
Thank you so much for requesting this reaction bro, my warm wishes for you to react and understand this musical miracle...
I was listening Ilaiyaraja sir's music since more than 45 years. No body taught me his greatness in this way. Thank you for explaining the richness of his thought process ❤️👍👏
I liked your way of approach to Ilaiyaraaja music. My name is Sekar who has been the cellist playing for him for nearly 30 years Lidia. where are you living?.keep in touch.But one thing your piano is not in tune which disturbs me when you play the harmony. This Gig was happened 2019 December.
Oh, could you please point which one! I'd like to know. Keep in touch!
How can I reach you? And I apologize for my piano❤️
you played the cello here sir :)
yes sir.
@@Sekar12345 sir, a big honor to even get a reply from you. I've been listening to your work with the Madras String quartet three last few days. Phenomenal stuff sir. Lucky to have seen you play live in two concerts.
Major scale or minor scale we don't know but illayaraja music always touches people heart....
first note third note and fifth note is major chord ...when third not dimnishes half a note the it is minor chord ...eg . D major D F G# ...and D minor D Fb G# (# called sharp , b like simbol - not in my phone keyboard - called flat ...
There is no scale to judge and grade his music bro he is unique and distinct
I am literally crying for this tune. I am very fortunate to live in Ilayaraja's Era....
+1❤
I broke into tears, not only moved by his music, also the way you break it down for us!!
Thank you for much, I truly appreciate your genuine comment❤️❤️I also cried watching this for the first time
You are the blessed one Lidia kotlova.... Yes. You entered Illayaraja's magical and spiritual music domain. Most of the Indians and particularly Tamils enjoying his songs not his music. Upto some extent few got the talent and ability to understand what he is doing. He is a Musical monster. Thank you for your analysis of his music with your wonderful western classical talent. Your presentation makes me ... Literally broken when you play the Lullaby... Wow... Beautiful . Once again I am thanking you . Keep listening to his music. You can explore more and more . People like you should expose His wisdom on music.
Thank you for your kind comment 🙏
Illayaraja is the stylish man in the Asia in terms of music.. this spontaneity is amazing..
absolutly
Raja sir combines folk, western, carnatic musics , but without any boundries in a disciplined, melodial holy path..the result is u see only God .
For Illairaaja it's a child's play writing music in western notations for the exact footage. I noticed him for all my movies for several years. He is the one and only composer in India who can compose very fast 🙏
Late malayalam composer Johnson master also does this fast composing without using musical instruments.
Nalla solluma avara pathi Tamilnadu la irukuravangaluku theriyattum Raaja ayya Tamilnadu la poranthathu avaru sabakedu😢
Fascinating analysis of this composition. It takes a trained talented musician like you to understand the music composer's mind and come up with the logic behind the arrangement. We couldn't have done that. Thank you 🙂🙏
Your transcribing of the score for Piano is equally beautiful. For Raaja of course, writing a four part score in 10 minutes is just another day at the office. Just don’t know how he is able to write such detailed, perfect scores without even touching the piano. Genius
I watched other videos of him composing as well. This on e is genius and underappreciated. I got touched and decided to make a reaction
@@LidiaKotlovaPianoStudio under appreciated ? Or some are ignorant? He’s like a music god for many in India !
underappreciated in oter county not in india. he is god of music
Come on guys don't be toxic. I am also ilaiyarajaa fan.
Thats why we call him as "isai gnani"(Musical Genius)
I felt tears when she played in piano.. real lullaby
a father killed by son. so, the father is remembering the lullaby he sing for his son and feel
Same here... that's how powerful his music is !!
He is A gold medalist in classical guitar from Trinity College of Music, London
May it be songs or background music he always writes notes
Great to know there are people outside India living our culture and listening to our music.
India is largely outside india. Thanks to the BJP govt who never listens to democracy
People going out side to make money and living. They have been going since time immemorial. people who forgot their roots praising foreign culture and civilization and hence the have to blame indian civilization.
Because more views give more money on youtube
Only for views
India is now demoCARZY
Ilayaraja scorings will be in western notations and he also translates it to Indian carnatic notation whoever wants in his orchestra. As far as I know he achieved gold medal award in western guitar instrumental music.
Hi Lidia… My name is Athul and I'm a Pianist too ......Just came across your channel today and Hats off to your effort for making this explanation video. Im also an Ilayaraja fan since my childhood and Im in love with the way he compose basslines for his songs .
The feel of music is always awesome. Thanks for your detailed explanation. #என்றென்றும்_இளையராஜா 💕💕💕
Oh ! What an irony - Reminiscences of the lullaby which the son remembers from his childhood before murdering his father . A unique concept to suit the situation. Only our Mastero can conceptualize such scenes musically and you have deciphered it wonderfully well 💤👍 .
isn't it? I am waiting to see Maestro reaction
@@LidiaKotlovaPianoStudio That's true . Best of luck
I literally cried after seeing how raja approached that situation........if it was me I would had gone for some disturbing and terrifying music.... He just made a normal scene into a masterpiece.......... 😍😍😍
Lidia what you are doing is an incredible job. Raaja sirs music is influenced by western classical and blended with our southern folk... That i feel is a gift for us.
And hearing a western pianist non biased view is so refreshing and makes us feel the depth of his music.
GREAT GOING. Can't thank you enough.
oh thank you so much🙏
@@LidiaKotlovaPianoStudio Lidiya , you are yet to do a video on Illayaraja meeting Bizet .. Because his song abc nee vasi is a direct inspiration from Bizet composition- L'arlesienne- Suite 1 - Carillon
7:23 Once a director narrated this story happened during a movie's song composition: Movie Name Avadaram, Actor & Director Nasser.
Mastero told him to come for composition in the next day morning. Nasser went to Mastero's studio and saw him wrting something very fastly. It looked like a person writing a letter in anger / love, with such emotions. This writing continued for almost one hour. The director started to think, "if he wants to write some personal letters, why he had given an appointment and wasting my time". The director thought Mastero is writing some personal letter and after realising his appointment to this director, Mastero is speeding up to finish the letter as soon as possible. After an hour, Mastero finished his writing and called one of his assistant and gave all that papers he wrote. Then, after this Mastero started talking to Nasser. Nasser asked, sir shall we start the composing session? Mastero replied, oh your songs composition were completed, come in the afternoon, and you can hear the song.
Then, the director came to know that letters he was writing, fastly were not letters, they are musical score sheets written in western classical notes.
One of that song composed was, Thendral vandu theendum podu, you reacted few days before..
You are Doing a great work. Continue. God bless you.
Really? So awesome to know that
That is extraordinary song , " how could a blind woman feel colors through other senses "
Yes....
As like everyone even I was expecting something thrilling stormy kinda tune...but thats ILAYARAAJA he is always above our thoughts..
King is always king
isn't it?? I was just about to say the same...
Ilayaraja is the real mastermind in India... maestro and இசைஞானி
Great job mam, this is really great when western people like u realize about ilayaraja talent n music knowledge, in my point of view ilayaraja is legend like Beethoven, mozart,bach, john William, ennio morricone, hans Zimmer, thank u
just reseazed an article on Kamadenu about that
@@LidiaKotlovaPianoStudio Read the article, thoughtfully written. Wish you all the best sister.
For your kind information
Lord Almighty ilayaraja's is a GOLD medallist in Trinity college
he is way ahead then Trinity curriculum
@@LidiaKotlovaPianoStudio happy to hear from a talented musician🙏
All gold medalist cannot be ilayaraja
@@lionelshiva absolutely 🙏😊
Wonderfully played ..pls review En Vanile from the Tamil movie Jhonny .,from the Rajasir
Plz do some more reaction videos for Illayaraja ❤️. He is my all time favorite
This is truly incredible stuff 👏!! Initially I couldn't understand the feel. Sounded completely disconnected from my imagination of the scene but as the video progressed the way you conveyed it and the way Raja Sir himself explained it made it truly fitting !! The rhythm not in synchronization with the heart beats giving a heart-pounding feel and the lullaby feel showing helplessness and difficult moments at the time of showing anger, fury and arrogance is equally relevant !! Great work this really 👏 👍 👌!! The flute backing amazing !! And finally the way you rendered it on piano mesmerizing Sis !!
Thank you, Dheebhan
When you played the piece on the piano at the end...wow! It hits home, all that emotion...just great!
Lidia- you are doing a wonderful thing.. thanks for breaking it down 👍 if you don’t mind I would like to give you my suggestions
1. Thenmozhi enthan thenmozhi (movie:Solla thudikuthu manasu)
2. Kannan vanthu padugindran (movie: Rettaival kuruvi)
3. Alli Sundaravalli laali
4. Antha kanji kalayatha (I love this song chorus counters)
I will be happy to hear you talking about any illayaraja songs..👍
When music today has moved to electronic, he advises everyone including his son Yuvan to use real instruments, musicians, the legacy of music. Ilayaraja is more than what he is now from Symphony to indian tamil movie music. Am proud and fortunate to hear his music. And proudly say am a AUDIOPHILE. Appreciate the way you decoder his Idea.
Ilayaraja composed more than 1000 films and he composed 10 films every month when he was in peak..
Now he dead?
@@AKFourteen no shit...he is alive and giving us a great feel❤️
How can anyone compose a film?
He did and continuing this task.... Kaattumalli song is recent hit he gave..@@robertmathew55
Pride of Tamil musics ❤️❤️ legend Ilayaraja sir .
Excellent ! I am a portrait artist from India. I am doing a project on Music Maestro I
Illayaraja Raja Sir ( for exhibition of his portraits). 2 weeks ago I got a chance to see this Great Musician at his Music Studio in Chennai. I presented him 2 of his portraits and seek 2 Autographs on his Portraits. It was my special day and a special gift of my life.
Ilayaraja sir is a living legend .... 🙏No Words to say
Thanks for exploring ilaiyaraja's music 🎶 space. He his genius
Hi Lidya, i am ardant fan of Illaiyaraja sir, recently i have seen his movie HAPPI in Hindi, BGM is purely western style, pl listen and bring it to analysis.
I think you came to know that he is 8th grade gold medalist in Guitar. He is the only person who did symphony in Asia. He can write score very fast like A, B, C, D.. alphabet. He composed 1000 films. He is good singer, lyricist. He, sometimes, suggests story , scene to film director.
Real LEGEND... Maestro ILAYARAJA Sir!
Maestro has been a blessing for the Indian music audience for decades. Many still don't fully appreciate the genius of this work (like the director in this video).
Thank you for sharing this video and your very insightful thoughts. Although I know next to nothing about music, I truly appreciate your work.
God bless.
From the moment I saw this video some months back, I keep humming this tune. but when I hear from your piano it touches my crimson heart. if you are willing please do play a 30 sec .. I will use it as my ringtone..
Reach me on Instageam - will give it away to you!
@@LidiaKotlovaPianoStudio ha ha sure will do
Tremendous, the way he composes and the brief understanding of the feeling illustrated by you!👏👏👏
You should compose and finish the entire piece as a tribute to him and upload a video. There are two reasons why Ilaiyaraaja didn't get the recognition that he deserved in India. 1) Complete ignorance about western classical music in India. 2) The usual North Indian, South Indian divide and prejudice owing to language and skin color politics which led to the suppression of South Indian geniuses and their world class achievements.
Great analysis Lidia. Can you please do a music analysis on
1) 'Sundari Kannaal Oru Sethi...' song composed by Mastero Ilayaraaja for Tamil movie 'Thalapathy'
2) Ilayaraaja's English album 'Love and Love Only'
Thank you so much.
Maestro writes western notations by hand for every composition for every instrument with timings. This process will take 20mins. He then share across to all orchestra then starts fine tuning it with adjustments individually. At last, with all ingredients, the beautiful composition is ready
Madam. Lidia Kotlova, Honorable Meastro Sir, music every tune come up in the "SCREEN" or "AIR" there is a "JEEVAN" - by the birth of a baby which mean. Maestro, Sir, Music "BRAMHA". Whenever the five elements "ALIVE" his " NATHAN" - Sound is alive in the "AIR", We are all. also you and your family also somehow arrest his sound. 100% more than. For my kind request please listen to his late 1980's to 2021 albums there is a variety, Meastro Sir, versatile music "BRAMHA". My Goodness, I am living in when Mastro in the century. We are all blessed by God and his Sound. 'Music God is - "Om Nama "SHIVAYA" he gifted Meastro sir, to all over the world. Because I getting every day his Positive energy sound. Note: He came to CHENNAI city in "HUNGRY" late 1960-1970?, sir brought to us his music play the famous orchestra of "Hungary Budapest " ( HUNGRY VS HUNGARY). Thanks and more videos we are all waiting from you............ "Om Nama "SHIVAYA"
He got gold medal from London's Trinity school of music in 1970's , western classical music
He is way ahead then their curriculum
I was thinking if I was the only person in the world who was crazy about that composition for the " son killing father ". Really happy to see a western classical player such as yourself understanding the depth of this sort of composition!
Mam, whenever we hear any of his thaalatu ( llullaby) ppl like me will start to weep and unable to control our emotions even though we want to Stop crying and thats the magic of "ragadevan isaignani ilaya raja sir". keep posting in your style again and again 🙏
Lidia we've heard people say that ilaiyaraja was the first to write and compose with musical notation in India, which was an amuse to the people in music industry itself at the time he entered the field...
Illayaraja is a gold medalist in classical guitar (Trinity college London)
Hi Lidia, How did I miss your channel so long...as I am a devotee of Ilayaraja's Music. I have subscribed your channel and going to ask all my friends especially north Indians to do that. I always felt bad that North Indians and foreigners do not much value Ilayaraja and his compositions just because people here do not care much about taking him forward. As a country we have failed in this. He himself does not demand that being a very simple man. You are great not because of your talent but because of your passion to do what others would not. You conscientize the international community that there is a great musician here unrecognized and less appreciated. Kudos Lidia.
Beautiful analysis. Ilayaraja is a musical genius.
High class appreciation by you for fans of Raja sir . I loved watching ut description
He is a gold medalist in guitar (classical) from Trinity College of Music, London (Distance Learning).
"Living Legend"
I am from India...illayaraja was a blend of western and Indian music...especially South Indian music...he was a wave out of this world
He is one of the God's creation.. It is very unfortunate that he was born in India😔😔😔
But he thought himself as God, and God was not happy about that , and created A.R.Rahman
Thank you for decoding what his music really is. I have been listening to his music since my childhood but no one has decoded what the music 'Raja' is playing like you.
Great work.
We are very blessed that we are also living with ilayaraja ERA.
100%
He came from poor family without music knowledge but he did. What Great composer of south India. I really enjoyed your explanation you are genius too mam.
Maybe you are wrong.. he was poor but came with musical knowledge
Thank you, for making us to realise the brilliance of Ilayaraja.
Lidia you are doing a wonderful work to make a non music person understand the language of music.illayaraja Sir is a genius and very few can understand the genius behind his compositions.I don't have any knowledge on music but I'm addicted to illayaraja music
Thank you for your kind comment
I don't think many realise the music and emotional depth of Ilayaraja's composition. Real maestro.
Your approach to his Composition is absolutely awesome ~♥~🙏
Dude.. You're awesome ... Like a machine..🤯.
and illayraja is a legend btw
Wow Lidia..!! You are an amazing analyst too..!! We are pure lovers of Ilaiyaraja sir's music... Appreciate your love for Music and your love for Love itself.... May you be happy and grow happily!!
Love from India ❤️😘🇮🇳
I have been listening to maestro all my life and I constantly see how underestimated he is. So many scenes in so many movies are so special due to his music playing in the background. Thanks for this video.
Thanks ma'am for researching Ilayaraja's music ❤❤❤
Hi. Your commentaries and interpretations are fascinating. Needless to say, our Illayaraja sir, the genius of music of the 21st century, is always in a higher pedestal when it relates with music. There is absolute divinity in his understanding of music. He is a gift for music. Your final rendition on piano is equally superb. You are a talented musician as well
Madam, I really wished if you were there on the stage with the Master.. you would have grasped his notes and the harmony instantly, only a master can understand the master.. hats off to you that you recognised how genius illayaraja sir is..
I ll explain this in simple terms.
Music for this situation is not horrific. Its a fight within. It has to destroy your innerself before committing something like that. Hence the piece is resolved into inner self rather than the outro.
Tamil Telugu Malayalam 💌😍
Telugu most spoken language of South India, fastest growing Indian language in foreign countries also..
Many more facts.. such a lovely channel name.. subbed..
He is writing western classical musical notation instantly without even thinking
What an excellent explanation Ms. Lidia Kotlova. Thank you for playing and posting in RUclips.
The day when this video came out, I realized why he is a GOD of Music!!!
Thanks for explaining this ...never imagined all these behind a song ...much more respect for the Maestro
Excellent Work Lidia, he is like a undrain Honey Comb... God of Music.... He is everything for me....
This is awesome,Lidia ❤️ Can you please analyse "Nee paartha paarvai" from Hey Ram by Maestro? I bet you will love it and we will definitely love that analysis too. 😊😊
willdo
@@LidiaKotlovaPianoStudio yes you going to melt after hearing that master piece
Eagerly waiting..
A beautiful interpretation of this composition you added another new layer with the analogy with heart beat and breath. Impressive
True.....her detailing helped ....better understanding...
I am expecting ur piano out bursts from raja sir"s composition. Oh ,my God that will be ultimate music .
thank you!
BTW i saw your interview in the kamadenu news magazine today. Congratulations. It was really good. Hope to see more and more people visit your channel.
Is it available online?
Thank you so much! 🌹
Ilaiyaraaja sir is great in western notes and carnatic notes.
He is a gold medalist in classical guitar after completing the course through distance learning channel from Trinity College of Music, London.
dear Lidia Kotlova ... in India these three "shyama sastrigal,thiyagaiyya and muthusamy dheetchidar " are being prayed as GOD OF MUSIC and music festivals are being conducted every year at the place thiruvaiyaru .. As per music legends ilaiyaraja has achieved more than these GODS in his musical career and he should be also placed in par with them .. FOURTH GOD OF MUSIC
This video of Raja ji's live composition has been blowing my mind for years, but your reaction and analysis Lidia, made me cry.
You have realized and expressed the depth of Raja ji's musical universe in such a beautiful and artistic way that is beyond appreciation.
Thank you!
Thanks a ton
As you mentioned raja sir is using western classical notation... Added to that he is only Indian composer who writes musical notation and uniqueness is the fastest... He is my God,friend, and the best Healer
I'm atheist, but HE is my god..... what else to say????‽
Very happy
You made my day for choosing this video to react. 🙏🤗
My pleasure 😊
Your analogy and indulgence in music itself is commendable 🙏🏻
Just came across your review beautiful analysis. For fans like us Ilayaraja Sir is our healer ... hand holding us all through our life. His compositions helped us to walk thro the ups and down of life. Hope you give a technical analysis of his album How to name it. Thanking you in advance
the moment I heard the tune I was taken aback. Ilayaraja once again bedazzled me... it stuck the right string for me. but only thing that was irritating was the directors tone towards it.
lovely lovely....god bless you. Thank you for translating the genius in a language we can understand. Your interpretation was awesome!!
Hii sis. Pls try (mandram vantha thendralukku) A beautiful Tamil song composed by illayaraja sir.
