Music and Love for music and arts.

While driving across the scenic beauty of  Peel, It suddenly struck to me why we like music and arts as such? why different people like different kind of music ?
Why some people spent and dedicated  their whole life for the sake of music and that is the most important thing to them and for sure it gives them enormous and countless joy.

Fundamentally all ears are keen to discover the sheer magic of  all the beautiful notes we hear.As seen people grow up in musical Gharanas, grow up as very good in all facets of music. Part of it when you are really young you develop a taste for music (if  you  are surrounded by the quality and supreme flair of  music) even though you are not born  with this gifted talent.

Part of the reason that's why in the past all heir and heiress of  all  kingdoms used go to  the Ustad to learn the music,even most of them were not even gifted with this talent,  but just to develop the taste for good music.
You do not have to very good in any kind of art to be admirer of it but you should have a zest for it.
The zest developed when you are really young and the company you kept and of course the swing of the things knitted all around you.

Some people are better than others but we need to learn things one way or other based on very raw desire and very inquisitiveness to learn not only music but any art or skill.
Indian classical music is best thing ever happened to the music, we need to give this music the respect 
it deserves and most importantly develop a taste for it.
   
Some people are very talented, they don't even need a conducive environment to be good in anything.
They are simply gifted,  they have good ears , they have nice naturally inbuilt notes  and they are  razor sharp in learning and grasping. But unfortunately most of us will not fall in the above category. So to develop a taste for it we need to listen to it and be patient, hopefully someday it will sink in.    
     

Hopefully we will continue the tradition of Indian classical music and keep it alive for many more years to come.On the above  note I will finish it  with a  magical  melody by Panditji in Raag Bhimpalas.
सबसे ऊंची प्रेम सगाई -  सूरदास 

सबसे ऊंची प्रेम सगाई
१. दुर्योधन के मेवा त्याग्यो, साग विदुर घर खाई
४. जूठे फल शबरी के खाये, बहु विधि स्वाद बताई
३. राजसूय यज्ञ युधिष्ठिर कीन्हा, तामे जूठ उठाई
५. प्रेम के बस पारथ रथ हांक्यो, भूल गये ठकुराई
६. ऐसी प्रीत बढ़ी वृन्दावन, गोपियन नाच नचाई
२. प्रेम के बस नृप सेवा कीन्हीं, आप बने हरि नाई
७. सूर क्रूर एहि लायक नाहीं, केहि लगो करहुं बड़ाई
