The KM Conservatory.....

It's a well known thing,the"KM Conservatory.."started by A.R.Rahman on January this year,for the cause of symphony orchestra,as there is no where in India these kind of orchestra,so the KM Conservatory trains the people who join there..There would be some handful of professors from all over the world who come to teach the western classical and the indian musicians would train the Indian classical etc.I always had some passion for the music..so i have also registered online for this conservatory...the course there will be a par time or a two year diploma one..the trained musicians will be working with Rahman and joining him for various concerts...It's always a dream to work with Rahman...so i hope i too learn some music under the guidance of some famous people...

The IPL......

Recently I heard in the news that,former Indian batsman Sunil Gavaskar has lashed out the Indian players,as they attend their respective IPL team launch function..He said that the Indian players can spend time at the nets rather than going and attending such kind of functions..This came after the poor show by the Indians against the South Africans at Ahmadabad..



The IPL is the major fever for all the cricketers all round the world..In future there would be only these kind of games rather than playing for a whole day...This is a event which fetches more money then these limited over game and test matches..
