Description:
Is there a living Indian who, at least privately, hasn’t hummed some of Melody Queen’s songs and derived personal satisfaction? Lata Mangeshkar has turned myriad tunes into milestones of our music, by her extraordinary artistry. In this album, some accomplished musicians are letting their instruments do the humming of some of her semi-classical songs, to a collective delight of dedicated listeners - like you.
This is an endeavour at creative interpretation of not only some of her melodies, but also at innovative orchestral arrangements of the songs that we have treasured as immortal. (It’s a little like the genre of Jazz, which does an individualistic elaboration of given notes of a melody). The melodies you are about to savour are like poetry without words, gliding divinely over sweetly familiar musical notes. You almost hear words without an alphabet being vocalised. Here, nostalgia has acquired another attire.
It’s in your hands. Let there be no more words between you and Melodies of the Queen.
