- Mozart Meets India.

The carnatic ragas Kaapi, Banduvarali, Bilahari, Sankarabaranam, Sinthu Bhairavi and Hamsananthi are explored in the Western Symphony system giving harmonic versatility to the ragas. That both systems were brought to blend without losing their distinctive grammar  and character is the success of this challenging effort. An unknown genius from Tirunelveli, Jesuraj worked the musical wonder with conceptual backing from Rev. Fr. Jegath Gaspar Raj. Kanimozhi patronized the project. The creation had a philosophy to experiment. That integration need not necessarily mean dissolution of individual identities. Harmonious integration is possible among cultures and civilizations which retain their unique characters and identities.

- Indian Christmas.

Not many could imagine that the eternally reverberating carol ‘Silent Night’ could be quietly brought to ‘Neelambari’ raagam. And the ‘Jingle Bells’ to Kathana Kuthu Koolam. Indeed an extraordinary effort which took the essence and feel of Indian music to Europe and North America. Tamil Maiyam passionately believes in the beauty and purposefulness of enriching conversations and dialogue through arts and culture. Dogmatism and exclusivity are the antithesis of art, music and culture which actually reveal the ultimate essence of the human quest for freedom and meaning. Diversity is part of our spirituality.

- Vazhum Valluvam.

Among the books in Tamil, Thirukural by far has the largest number of translations. It’s neither a scripture nor an epic, but an extraordinary treatise on the Art of Living. It also bears evidence to the level of civilization and culture as well as intellectual attainments the Tamils reached nearly 2000 years ago. ‘Vazhum Valluvam’ puts to music 50 couplets from Thirukural. The relevance of Thirukural has become the focus of intense discussions in the context of the violence and politics of hatred perpetrated in the name of religions. Thirukural could be the most eminent Book which can give foundations for a system of ethics and spirituality beyond the boundaries of religions.

- Insha Allah.

‘Someone is listening! A Guru, a wise one!’ sang Kabir, 600 years ago. Mukhtiar Ali who hail from the Pugal village of Rajasthan bordering Pakistan brought the ethereal spirit of Sufi music to Chennai. In the Egmore Museum Theatre it was an experience of immersion, provocation, reflection and revelation. The superb blend of mysticism, classicism and folk idioms made Mukhtiar Ali’s music splendid and extraordinary. Sufism is the mystical and ancient branch of Islam that emphasizes the seeker’s path toward ecstatic unity with God. The great Sufi Jalaludin Rumi wrote in the 13th century thus: “Today, like every other day, we wake up empty and frightened. Don’t open the door to the study and begin reading. Instead take down a musical instrument. Let the beauty we love be what we do”.

- Season of Love.

Christmas & New Year are times of giving and sharing. Margazhi as a month brings music, dance and bakhthi. Season of Love celebrates the spirit of this season. It brought together thousands of orphan & street children and people of Chennai to share some moments of joy and care. It ran campaigns against violence, terror and hatred. From the Season of Love proceeds we have built care homes for the children of migrant workers and provided scholarship to hundreds of poor children. Season of Love 2008 was unique. On December 26 while believers walked from Temples, Churches and mosques, non-believers started from Periar statue to converge  near Mahatma Gandhi statue in the Marina. They prayed for harmony and remembered the victims of violence with candle light vigil. On December 27 the city came together with 5000 orphans and street children conquering the mood of despair through compassion. The children were shared good food, gifts, New Year clothes and love. The same story of joy followed the next day with the elderly.
