Another lovely Jonson musical!

Browsing through MIL I came across another fantastic score by Jonson
.. this guys never ceases to amaze me; really creative tunes!!
Especially check out the heavenly Yesudas song in the movie
Chinthavishtayaya Shyamala:

I have no idea how old this movie is, I find serene timelessness in
Jonson's music! Some distinctive features of his compositions include
consistently rich interludes with heavy reliance on Indian musical
instruments (flute, violins, veena and mridangam are dominant) and a
certain sense of "phursat" in the tunes. The latter would be somewhat
analogous to (to steal Pradeep's analogy when describing Salil) taking
the scenic route instead of the freeway to get to work. :)

Enjoy!

p.s. I would also recommend listening to Ee Puzhayum Kadannu:
