If you watched "Ilaiyaraja 3 note song", watch this #Demo753 to experience the beauty of composing with three notes. If master classes are for experts, then this is a non master class... for curious music lovers who are not musicians.
Damn who are you???? So so talented. It is my misfortune to miss you these days in my life. Appreciate what you are doing. Please please don't stop. And please compose more music and i am happy to hear from you. After many Western classical composers. I see you are promising and can be there on the list. I wish you all the best to see you soon as the main composer in movies. Please forgive me for my less knowledge if I am incorrect with my text. Have a great time:)
Thank u! I started this channel for my own compositions.... but... my analysis videos of existing songs are the ones which started picking up. I hope to be able to release my unreleased compositions in the future... 🙂🙏

I am flabbergasted by your ability to make excellent tasting soups whether I give you 7 ingredients, 5 ingredients or 3 ingredients. I was of the opinion that if you use more ingredients the soup will be tastier.. But you proved that it is not the case. A good cook can make delicious soups even with limited ingredients. Thank you for explaining this fact in a very simple way. Wonderful presentation!
Awesome experience hearing first time the same tune by reducing notes in each octave's. 3 note song melody &five note melody same music. Wonderful 🙏👏👌🌹
Ok. Noted. Here I wanted to showcase going from 7-5-3 against the same BGM. So I used mine. Any three note creation is rare and precious - don’t want to totally change such a precious creation by Raja sir, by creating a 5 and 7 note versions of it. I can... but I don’t want to. Maybe I can do a separate appreciation video of it in future.
@@suvaissance Your composition is mind blowing too. Each of those 3 samples you created have the characteristics of an everlasting melody on par with great composers
@@suvaissance Also didn't mean to alter Ilayaraja's melody.. rather give an example of a 3 note melody of Ilayaraja sir so that we could appreciate his genius
Fantastic question... 3 note tunes are like magician's tricks... when pushed to the brink, the tricks become obvious and it starts losing the magic... These tunes are there to make us think like how you're thinking...I'd say choosing the notes itself is part of the trick. And the important thing for choosing the notes: (1) it should allow the creation of tunes which have an unresolved feeling (2) it should allow the creation of lines of tunes with the resolved feeling. Without these two, it is hard to make a song or tune "progress". We can create horror music, action-detective music with combinations like yours... I guess the question is where do you draw the line between "this is trivial, I just made up some permutations and combinations, but this is post-something-ist art" and "this is beautiful music, like a Raja 80's love theme"
Haha. Hi skynet... I remember specific requests... including this one from u... it’s filed under long term since I have to get to know VS more. It’s like getting to know a best friend! It takes time... meanwhile I hope u enjoy 🙂 and thanks for always commenting
All three (7, 5 and 3 note versions) in this video are my compositions though... not Maestro’s... I think you are looking for Maestro’s chords for his 3 note composition?
Mam.., those are really great melodies. But looks like the background music you put when you are speaking is kind of distracting.. something that starts at 03:13
Thanks! Yeah adding the BGM while talking is not my fav part... it’s always a tough choice... Sometimes people seem to respond better when there is BGM... sometimes during silence... as a compromise, I add it only in certain small sections. This itself will be a great topic for the channel 😂
It’s a fantastic song! But it is not a 3 note tune. That is exactly what makes 3 note composing extremely challenging. You can NOT touch that fourth note, not even once, not even for a tiny mood change. This song is good for many other reasons though... I mean we don’t have to judge a song’s quality by how many notes it has... 3 note songs are just like a magician’s trick, and pushed beyond a point, they will get boring...
😂 You conveniently picked the three notes of the C minor chord. These three will always sound melodic if you played it in a symmetric pattern. But Ilayaraja picked three notes C, D and E. Now that’s a challenge, showing variations using these three notes is an extreme creative challenge.
