India is a land of music. IF MUSIC BE THE FOOD OF LOVE , THEN PLAY ON,quoth Shakespeare. Music is dominant in every activity of life.  right from singing lullaby, to the weeping of the dead, there is music. The beats vary, the rhythm differ, the tone modulates, the cadence is  at different levels, the pitch is modified, and the presentation alters. , according to circumstances.

Music is innate in every Indian. He thinks music, talks music  and believes in music.Certain  Indian languages , have a  drawl   and a motion ,that speech itself is   similar to tender  music.Certain other languages , have a beat and notation that the talk appear to be a harmonic band. Few other languages sound chirpy and sizzling ,that they expose a vibrancy.

Notation, harmony profound feelings   and vibrancy along with voice modulation present  a heavenly music.

The power of music , is such that, it exudes happiness  in a joyful rhythm, it expresses sorrow in  a melancholic strain, it pours out profound feelings in dragging tenor, it vibrates a zodiac stir in the  beat of the band, it keeps good humour in  the kindred notes.

Music diffuses the soul and dispassionately divulges the eternal truth.

A.R. Rehman , has won the hearts of the people world over, as music outwits languages, outsmarts individuals, overwhelms culture, and out stretches boundaries.

Music is for all the senses, is for permeated atmosphere, is for all souls.

Play on to the world’s well being.
