Floating in music!!

Vivek Barun


ANCIENT CONNECTION

For the past few months my connection with music has grown stronger than ever. First, there is the flute. If u remember It was my new year resolution to start learning flute which you can check out HERE. And so I did. Its been 3 months since I am learning Carnatic flute, which is also called the Venu.
Now most people know that Indian classical music has two distinct disciplines.. That of Hindustani and Carnatic.
As of now I cannot comment or compare between the two but I can say that I have become familiar with the basic elements of Carnatic music through my flute practice. Thus I am not lost when someone says Raag Kalyani or Roopak Talam. However this is just the beginning.
Also I have been busy doing Satsangs all over Bangalore(especially in the Yes+ centres),,, that is after Rashmin Bhaiya told me -- "Your job is to do satsangs! At least for this lifetime".  We have also had a few "Awakening To New Reality" Programs.. with grand sound system and all the other stuff that make people ask for more.
I have been really thinking to record some of the songs in the ANR and put it up in the blog here. I hope that might be coming soon...
If you are learning some instrument or are interested to learn, kindly leave a comment... I am looking forward to keeping in touch with u guys...
P.S: From now on you can expect the posts in this blog to be fairly frequent.:)

cool:-). I would like to learn some percussion instruments. Also, i have this desire of singing, but my voice is of not that good quality.
Anyway all the best in your endeavour in raching out to more people thru satsangs, my best wishes

Is there any classic music out there? the one that is most touching or some really good songs that just make you float with it.

I watched a music video the other day with the band/artist standing in the middle of the street with cars rushing by, but all you see are the lights from the car. There's a city skyline behind the singer. And once in a while the camera changes to show a couple walking down a sidewalk with the same car effect. They cross each other's path and then turn and start to float towards each other. Once they get close, they kiss and lights surround them.
