One of the many beautiful things in this world is the flower.
Flowers give us fragrance.
Flowers give us happiness.
Flowers make us soft.
Flowers make us mellow.
Flowers give us strength.
Flowers give us a new meaning in life.
Coming to think of it, that great thing in the world called as Music also gives us all these..
Our Literature is also replete with references to Flowers.
Music, Literature and Flowers..
Lot of similarities!!
What happens when flowers take out a march accompanied by Music and lyrics?
Is it not a triple treat?
‘Azhagiya MalargaLin Pudhu Vidha Orrvalame..’ from Ullasa ParavaigaL(1980) gives us this treat.
We see the buds swaying their heads in the first part of the prelude and these begin to dance to the beats in the middle part.
These buds now begin to smile as the western flute is played and …start blooming to the background of violins.
What a great sight it is!
Has anyone ever watched the buds turn as flowers..
His Music makes us see this marvel!
The first interlude is sheer magic as the flowers nod their heads to the pure western classical tune..
We see the Lily, We see the Daisy.
We see the Daffodil, We see the Ambrosia.
We see the Carnation, We see the Lavender.
We see the Marigold, We see the Sunflower.
It is the Painter’s Palette!
The second interlude is a riot of colours as all these flowers march ahead acknowledging the music of the Great Composer…
The voice of Janaki flows like the honey from each of these flowers..
The phrase ‘Vannam Vannam Kannil Minna.. nana.. nana..’ makes the decoration even more beautiful.
Yes..It is the Musical March of the Flowers!!
