Hrudaya Raagangalude Raaja...

A video of Maestro ILaiyaraaja playing the piano. This is part of a documentary titled "Hrudayaraagangalude Raaja" telecast a few years ago on Amritha TV. Its followed by a brief demo of different flutes by Raaja's flautist Nepoleon (singer Arunmozhi of 'En Veetu Sannal Etti-Raman Abdullah' & 'Naan enbadhu nee allavo-Soorasamhaaram' fame)

Check it out! You don't get to see the Maestro's magic from such close quarters..

The second flute he plays is a base flute and it is super hard to play, only because you have to have a huge lung capacity. My school had a base flute which I played in the band a few times. I quite enjoyed the lower registers of that flute
