  hubsoorat
marks a significant milestone in the history of
music and its rendition in India. With it -- and in
it -- Talat Aziz retains the very soul of the traditional
and yet imbues its presentation with a contemporary
new age music feel. The perfect marriage then, in 'Khubsoorat',
of tradition and today's talent". "It would have
been simple," muses Talat Aziz, "to take the easy
way out and have lyrics penned in 'filmi' style or the
music compositions to sound immediately appealing by
striking too-familiar chords." It would have been easier
to put together something so as to call it "fusion".
Instead, Talat Aziz took the complex -- but rewarding
-- way of requesting film lyricist Anand Bakshi to put
a fresh perspective on paper; he asked 38-year-old experienced
guitarist and keyboard player Sameer Phaterpekar to
compose music which while heightening the essence of
the pristine poetry would enhance the listener's sensation
of timelessness through the album's sound.The refreshingly
startling result -- 'Khubsoorat'. Listen to 'Khubsoorat',
experience it. And please remember to give Talat
Aziz your feedback on it through the enquiry form
on this website.
