Old Tamil Songs MP3 Music

 

Listening to old Tamil songs makes one feel serene and calm. Such rare old Tamil songs mp3 downloads are available for free download or for a small fee online. The lyrics and the remix old Tamil songs are also available for free download.

The old Tamil songs were based on the classical music of South India that is Carnatic music. They concentrated more on the melody of the songs and most of them were devotional songs or love songs with instruments like mridangam, veena, ghatam etc providing the base. The movies helped a lot in popularizing Tamil music not only in South India but  across the nation and overseas as well. Many concerts are now being held overseas and the response is humbling.

The M.S.Viswanathan-Ramamurthy duo dominated the South India Tamil Film Music during mid 50s and 60s. They were responsible for getting a change in the orchestration of the songs in Tamil films. They made use of the guitar and the drums, and were instrumental in introducing Western music into Tamil film songs, which until that time was pretty much classical Carnatic oriented. The combination of M.S.Viswanathan and   T.K.Ramamurthy (as the Music Directors), Kannadasan (as the lyricist),   T.M.Soundarajan (as the male singer) and  P.Susheela (as the female singer), created magic and produced many excellent songs in the 50's and the 60's. Listening to music made by this team was sheer bliss. Later day Tamil film music directors like V.Kumar, the duo of Shankar- Ganesh, started their careers under the wings of  M.S. Viswanathan and T.K.Ramamurthi. The duo scored  music for a couple of  Hindi films as well but did not meet the level of success as seen by them in the Tamil music industry.The duo split sometime in the mid-sixties after which MSV continued to give music for Tamil films with great success, almost into the mid-seventies, before Ilaiyaraja came into the field, and established his own unique style with greater success, while Ramamurthi did not meet with as much of a success in his solo ventures.
