Rakkamma kaiya thattu - One of BBC's top 10 Best tunes of all time


http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/us/features/topten/profiles/index.shtml

Composer: Ilayaraja
Movie : Thalapathi

Language: Tamil

Singers : S.P.Balasubramaniam, Swarnalatha

The beauty of the song lies in the synchronisation of those 64 VIOLINS. The orchestration is simply spell-bounding. The transition of the song from the folkish style to the devotional number and then back to the folkish style is amazing.

The no. of violins Ilayaraja has used and their synchronization is even now very difficult to reproduce by any other music director.

It rightly deserves the "BBC's One of the Top 10 Best Tunes of All Time" title.
