  4. Dear Mr. Musab,

    We happened to see your article on Jagjit Singh 'Ghazal Sung True', during web search.
    It was so wonderful, let's tell you. And we thank you for that piece.
    It has inspired us (the activists of Raspberry Books, calicut, kerala, india which attempts to bring out books of delicate taste like
    music, mysticism, literature etc.from Calicut) to work on a book in Malayalam- 'Jagjit Singh: Sketches of Recollections'.
    If you permit us to get your article translated
    into Malayalam and be used in that book, we would be extremely glad.

    Hoping for a word from you,

    Yours

  5. Thankyou everyone for the encouragement. A large number of destractions topped by a laptop crash has meant that I have to start over from scratch, but I've also come across a bunch of new recordings that will allow me to significantly expand the project. Therefore, I'm afraid the first posts won't be appearing untill January or thereabouts. Still, I'll try my best to make them worth the wait.
