A couple of days ago, I got to attend a public function that saw the inauguration of an Oriya album,NUA LUHA PURUNA LUHA. The lyricist of all the songs was pou very own DEVDAS CHHOTRAY and the music directior was the very talented OMPRAKASH MOHANTY. The soulful songs were sung by the beautiful and very graceful singer of our times-Smt. Susmita Das. The songs are an effort to bring good, lyrical and melodious music back to the Oriya cultural scene which seems to have given itself up to rampant imitation, mindless writings and jarring, noisy commotion of voices and musical instruments. The guests did speak that the people who listen to good music are rare, yet they can play a part to promote it. The inaugural price of the CD was a bit overboard, but considering the appreciators of such music, it was not inapt also. All those who love Oriya literature and Oriya music, should consider making it a prized possession and be instrumental in promoting it too.
