OOps. Pls do not compare with other live bands.
Chote Ustaad also has a brilliant live orchestra and arranger as well.
I was wondering if some one reads our posts from Zee...we discussed orchestra not doing very well in initial rounds. But now absolutely fab..!
And...
1. We always get performances written in order, so musicians know what is coming up next
2. Written notations hence the right effect
3. Sound lay out depends a lot in the hand of arranger. He needs to be tight as well. Same orchestra may sound lacklustre if I tweek with certain settings.
4. A lot depends on what the Channels wnat (at the end of the day).
5. Mos the players are highly trained (for years) musicians, they are respected a lot these days even by top composers, as they come out with brilliant ideas regarding how to male a song better.
It is said Monty had a lot of influence in the reeds verses for the music of Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam.
