Sreeraagamo....Sarath's musical wizardry at its best!

It was in 1998 that I met Sarath first in Chennai. He was assisting my mentor Raveendran Master and had created the background music for the album 'Ponnonam' in which I had sung my best ever song 'Innu njan Ente' for master...
When he was 16, he recorded his first album in Tamil, `Sangeetha Paravai.' Actually, he began his career by singing for the film `Onninguvannenkil' under the baton of Syam .
`Kshanakatthu,' a Malayalam film, saw him make a successful debut in Malayalam film music. The five songs in the film were instant hits.
After these came more melodious songs from him in films like `Pavitram,' `Ottayal pattalam,' `Sindura rekha,' and `Tacholi Vargees Chekavar.'
Sarath is also a good Carnatic vocalist and has been under the guidance of maestro Balamuralikrishna since 1989. All his songs are deep rooted in classical music and it's his peculiarity that almost all his songs have interludes that have very complicated patterns using different instruments like the veena, and flute.
Though he has done only a few films all of them have songs that stand out and are a connoisseur's delight!
Sreeraagamo is a beautiful melody inter-woven in 'Kharaharapriya' made immortal in the golden voice of Yesudas.
