MusicIsLife, thanks for your reply...

Yes, anything welcome, if you can do a key-boardised veena version, and upload it onto the web, that will be welcome...

Can I ask you one question: what is your musical background? I mean, have you learned to sing or play any instruments? If yes, how long have you been learning? What kinds of music do you like most?

Did you listen to the pieces of music I suggested? What did you think?

I'm not a music expert, just a fan, a fan of all kinds of music - Tamil Film music, Carnatic, Hindustani, "Western" music - Western Classical, pop, hard rock, etc.

There's a piece of music called "Am I not merciful?" on the soundtrack of the film Gladiator (by Hans Zimmer). Listen to it, and if you like it (I think you'd have to listen to it a few times before you start to like it), then your musical taste is similar to mine. A good place to get this from is www.grammy.ru. The website is in Russian, but there is link on the top right-hand-side of the place saying "ENG". Click on that link, and some of the text on the page changes to English. You should see a link saying "Music", click on that, and you will get a search box. The rest is obvious.

I have a number of ideas in mind, but just right now, I'm busy with exams. Plus, unfortunately, it seems not a lot of people are interested in my little ideas.

But after my exams are over, I'll post more about my ideas... I hope there will be at least one or two people here who will be interested...

Well, in the meantime, any contributions welcome!!!
