 Beautiful Music - Highly Recommended

Purchaed this CD and am very pleased. The music is beautiful, soothing, uplifting and highly recommended. This was my first A.R. Rahman cd and have purchased others by him, but this one ranks as the best in my book. Some of it is just instrumentals and others have singing. All beautiful asian language pieces are very good. Can't go wrong, The Czech Symphony performed flawlessly.

| What can you expect from a genius? A matchless performance! Hence, when the music wizard of India, A R Rahman, who is indeed a master of instrumentals, delivers and album that is chiefly instrumental-oriented, you just have to listen to it and get mesmerized by the power of his music. To the best of my knowledge, this album is not available in India (surprisingly), hence, when I saw it on Amazon, i ordered it without a second thought. Listening to this tunes have been a great experience, especially the 'warriors of peace' and 'dacoit duel'. A must have for not only a Rahman fan, but also for anyone who likes instrumentals. |

I noticed Rahmans name in the initial credits of the movie and I grew curious.
Having grown up in India, I always had the deepest respect for Rahman. This, however, is out of the world! Shorn of cheesy Bollywood film lyrics, his music rises to the highest levels. Beautiful amalgamation of eastern and western instruments.
And it perfectly matches the ambience of the movie.

| I don't remember how I even found this CD. I had never heard of A.R. Rahman but after sampling the music and reading the reviews I decided to buy it. What a revelation! The music is truly a timeless blend of eastern and western. It is at the same time powerful, sensual, deep, primitive, modern and melodic. Rahman blends primitive-sounding drums with lush orchestration and Indian and Chinese instruments. This is one CD of which I do not tire, even after I've had it on "repeat" in my CD player while I'm doing other things. Highly recommended. |

His music always sent chills down the spine. I feel sad for people who cant understand his music. Here is one rare gem of India. He is the Kohinoor of India. I have listened to this cd like a zillion times. Some people dont understand the genius of this music. All of the compositions are the same melody. Different variations, differnt tempos, different rhythms, different intruments but all of the 15 or so are the same melody. Unbelievable.
The lyrics to the song Warriors in Peace is very deep in Urdu/Hindi. I have tried to translate it below. Hope you guys enjoy it.
There is a calling in silence
(The world is) a marketplace of sighs
A lonely heart is a pity (as in a heart should never be lonely)
Come to me on this side. (as in the side of peace)
(This paragraph is focused on the night after a day long battle when the warriors are resting)
The dusk is setting in on the deserts.
The day has sunk into peace.
A pleasant breeze I dedicate unto thee. (to the warriors)
Rest thy sabers. (as in for ever)
(This paragraph focuses on the world ravaged by wars)
The world is a garden and
Do not color this garden with blood.
Whatever had to happen has happened. (as in atrocities)
Time itself is a healer.
let go of the bitter memories,
that drown lives in tears.
(this paragraph is in hope for the future)
The sun will rise again tomorrow.
Life will go on
Foster the world of aspirations.
For you are not alone; I am with you.
For I see you through the eyes of my heart Oh my companion
Every moment.
Call out to me
Anytime you need a friend
Like the mountain walks into the sea (referring to the lonliness of the mountains and the seas)
In the same manner we shall share our lonliness.
There is ease in tough times.
There is escape in difficulties.
Go beyond all these.
You have lost your dear ones.
you have shed many a tear.
You have to give your courage a destiny.
For you are not alone; I am with you.
For I see you through the eyes of my heart Oh my companion
Every moment.
Here the thing I like aboutt his song is that the lyrics and music both are in perfect harmony with each other. the music compliments the lyrics of Mehboob sahib. And nobody can do justice to lyrics in India beyond Rahman.
