This is the first time a full fledged Indian classical music is being written in western standard classical notation format. This is not a fusion music. Thiruvasakam, a divine Tamil literatute of south India is a great evidence for future humans to believe how civilized we are today. Its english version was written by Rev. G.U Pope,Rome before a century. This symphony is going to be performed in 4 languages viz Tamil, English, German and Hindi in October 2003 at Rome, Italy by a grand, Combined, Indian and Hungarian Orchestra.

  We have often wondered how the Americans play TchaikovSky (Russian), the French play Beethoven (German) or Germans play Elger and Benjamin Brittain (English). But no one plays our music at the international level even though we have some of the most accomplished music systems of the world. The reason: We have not written any musical masterpiece in an universally accepted format which others can read and play. ‘Thiruvasakam in Symphony’ project endeavors to address this long felt need. Selected songs from Thiruvasakam will form the lyrics part

  Thiruvasakam in Symphony’ music is scored by Mr. Ilaiyaraaja - the music icon of South India. The production involves more than 200 artists from India and Hungary with a budget of 50 million rupees. It is simultaneously produced in Hindi, English, German and Tamil.

  ILAIYARAJAA IS THE MUSIC DIRECTOR I LOVE.
  HE IS AN ASSET NOT TO INDIA ALONE,
  BUT TO THE ENTIRE WORLD OF MUSIC.
  THIS EXTREMELY GIFTED COMPOSER IS A MASTER OF
  SPIRITUAL SCIENCE TOO. AND THAT'S WHY HIS
  SEARCH FOR MORE IN MUSIC HAS JOINED HANDS WITH
  IN-BORN SPIRITUAL ATTACHMENT - THE RESULT BEING
  THE SYMPONY OF THE SAINTLY POET, SHRI MANICKAVASAGAM'S THIRUVASAGAM. THIS MASTERPIECE OF MAESTRO ILAIYARAJA WILL DEFINITELY EARN FOR
  HIM REPUTATION IN THE TRUE SENSE OF THE WORD.
  MY PRANAMS TO THE MAESTRO AND ALL THE MEMBERS OF
  THE PROJECT. OM NAMA SHIVAAYA.....
