Album made on vibrancy of Tamil in Singapore

An album of Tamil songs will be launched next month, highlighting the vibrancy of the South Indian language which is one of the four official languages in Singapore.
Non-resident Indian musician Soundara Nayaki Vairavan has completed the six-song album, saying "Tamil is an ancient language with many literary values."
"It is amazing to know that so much effort has been taken to enrich and preserve its tradition and culture in Singapore," the 44-year old vocalist was quoted as saying by Friday weekly 'tabla!'.
The album is "to express its sophistication in the form of music and song and tell people how it is vibrant and living language in Singapore," she said.

The songs, sung by Vairavan, are tuned and set to suit all age groups from school-going children to senior citizens.
"Each song, with a different theme, puts across how Tamil is being enriched in Singapore so people can connect to its beauty and the real happenings.

For others, they will get to know about how Tamil is a living language in Singapore," said Vairavan on how the album will appeal to all.
Entitled "Tamil in Singapore", the album will be launched on March 5, 2017, in conjunction with the Tamil Language Month which is held annually.
The songs were recorded at a studio in Chennai.
