Score Quest Fest

Track 9 is from Punnagai Mannan. Composer – Ilaiyaraaja. I like to call this piece the prelude to the popular love theme. It appears when Kamal is deeply disturbed by the hallucination of him dancing with Revathi and angrily hits the Piano. It is a short piece with a beautiful melody and counter melodies.

Track 10 is from Raam. Composer – Yuvan Shankar Raja. It is the title score of the movie in which the scene takes us through every little detail of the place of crime. Yuvan uses a background score cue from the 7G, Rainbow colony and shifts to a new theme as the visuals shifts to the crime scene. I don’t remember where else the theme is used in the film as I didn’t like the film.

Background Score - 61 Is From

This piece is main theme of Mounam Pesiyathey. Composer – Yuvan Shankar Raja. It seems to be quite popular theme music. No one gave a wrong answer on this one. This piece is yet another sample showcasing Yuvan’s interest in doing background scores. A very breezy romantic piece it is. It is introduced right up in the title credits of the movie and again appears only after Surya falls in love. Listen to other versions of this beautiful theme in the videos below

Answer for Background Score - 42

This piece is from Paruthiveeran. Composer - Yuvan Shankar Raja. It is the main love theme. It is so refreshing to listen Duduk instead of high pitched flute being used in a movie set in interior village and surprisingly it didn't sound alien. But I guess the melody of the this piece is heavily inspired one and an extended version of one of Illayaraaja's comic themes written for a hilarious Baghyaraj movie. Any guesses?
