A.R. Rahman.

Lagaan Hindi film     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uC3DmRfEigg

Back in 1992 a new music director, south Indian A.R. Rahaman took the  world
by storm with  "Roja".
 A living legend, perhaps 50 years old  now, unparalled in both western and
eastern music.
The film Lagaan 2002 is possibly one of  his best among hundreds. 
A musical with  a  do or die cricket contest between the British and the
locals. 
He won an international award for his music in 'Slum Dog Millionaire'. To
me, that was a flop.

Listen to all the songs in Lagaan. You can listen to all by clicking on
each.
Music, tunes, drums, balance, vocal variations both in pitch and volume to
suit, choreography, are outstanding
Even to a non Asian.
