Remember these lines from Rahman’s Anbe Aaruyirey. He is getting to what he has been promising for a long-time now.
A R Rahman kick starts his KM Music Conservatory, an organization that teaches music in Chennai. It’s an appreciable effort and I hope they keep proceeding as planned. Looks like it is a joint venture with Audio Media Education which is the first Apple authorized training centre.
This is what he had to say about this organization, “There are 1.4 billion people in India and thousands of musicians but there is no symphony orchestra with our very own musicians while even smaller countries have their own orchestra. So, the reason to start the KM Conservatory is simple. Most of the young aspiring musicians want to learn more of electronic stuff. Acoustic instruments are of no interest to them. We want to start a course where students learn acoustic instruments as well as electronic instruments. It is important to raise awareness about different kinds of music,” he continues. ”
Giving back to the society is such a noble motive but I only hope the naturally talented guys get selected instead of just the rich kids. BTW what does KM mean ?
KM is his personal label, and it is the short form of something religious.

Posted by:I guess KM means Kwaja Moinuddin… He is a spiritual saint, whom ARR follows. ARR himself has told that the letters KM are spiritual and have bought good luck to him.
Posted by:I guess KM means Khwaja Moinuddin Chrishty… He was a spiritual saint, whom ARR follows. ARR himself has told that the letters KM are very spiritual, and bring good luck to him.
