- The Berklee Indian Ensemble is delighted to release our second student original "Arz-E-Niyaz" by Sashank Navaladi, featuring the award-winning virtuosic Indian vocalist and composer, Vijay Prakash on Mirza Ghalib's 219th birth anniversary. It's the first time the Berklee Indian Ensemble has had a renowned artist perform on a student composition, and hope this will be the first of many such collaborations.
Hailing from Mysore, Karnataka in India, Vijay Prakash is one of the most sought after Indian playback singers with hits in Hindi, Kannada, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam and Marathi films. He has performed with the likes of Zakir Hussain, A.R. Rahman, and Taufiq Qureshi at venues like Wembley Stadium, the O2 Arena, WOMAD and Woodstock. He also won the prestigious Filmfare Award for Best Male Playback Singer (Kannada) for the song 'Gatiya Ilidu' from the film 'Ulidavaru Kandante,' and was one of the four vocalists on "Jai Ho" which won both, a Grammy and an Academy award. The Berklee Indian Ensemble recorded "Arz-E-Niyaz" with Mr. Prakash during his Berklee India Exchange artist residency at the college in November 2015.
Our composer, Sashank, was inspired by "Arz-E-Niyaz," a poem written by the preeminent Urdu and Persian Sufi poet of the 19th century, Mirza Ghalib. Written in the form of eight couplets, 'arz-e-niyāz-e-ishq' literally translates to the 'supplication for the blessings of love.' Ghalib reflects on the days when the heart was more engulfed in the humility of passion and considered himself a more worthy offering to the beloved.

Special thanks to our friends from the literary world for helping us with pronunciation of the Urdu lyrics: Urdu specialist, Salim Arif, and poetess, Sunayana Kachroo

What i love in Indian music is that you can hear 8 or 10 minutes songs and not get bored . The variety of the themes within the songs are amazing.
Those who are not familiar with Vijay Prakash, check out his song with AR Rahman, "Manmohini Morey" for the movie Yuvraaj. An absolute vocal treat! Class!
Oh, My soul is filling with happiness and beauty.
Oh my God, Vijay Prakash and Berklee Indian Ensemble.....what a treat
