Jagath Wickramasinghe has died



Multi gifted music author Jagath Wickramasinghe, says that the nonstop Sirasa Super Star Program, of which he is one of the three judges including Rukantha Gunatilleke and Nirosha Virajani, has transformed into the subject of much verbal confrontation.

He said that the Sirasa Super Star Program would end up at ground zero with the decision of a super artiste to be looked over seven finalists in the last round. It envisioned much augmentation where the finalists could change in sort.
Judging was done by the panalists on the reason of execution and continually in three different ways, however vitally it spun basically around pitch, rhythm or beat, explanation and clearly other establishment unpretentious components of the performing specialists.
Regardless Wickramasinghe said that shockingly there was a disillusioned territory including certain artistes who had been suspicious of the judging when really 'they are endeavoring to profit something for the purpose behind music in the country?' But the fact remained that not in the slightest degree like other such activities where artistes are instructed through the post of how they had fared, the Sirasa framework was unique in being valuable by heading the judging without even a minute's stop promoting their choice quick to the parts.
As needs be, it was still hopeless and demoralizing that today most people were readied to acknowledge what is passed on by suggestion to them, be it reality or an untruth. Faultfinders were expressing that judges should be around 75 - years- old.
In the meantime irrefutably reality about music is that experience is resolved not by age, yet by practice and experience.

Wickramasinghe similarly said that each one of the three panalists - Rukantha, Nirosha and himself had come up the venturing stool the hard way. At 39 years of age he (Wickramasinghe) had wound up as a music arranger having surrendered an outlining occupation to follow in the strides of his gatekeepers who were musical craftsmen and started his calling as a music specialist at the Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation.
He said that rather than being recognized for their endeavor to serve their picked fields that brickbats were being hurled at them from particular quarters. The sorry state of interpretations of the human experience was such an antagonistic arranged up which miracle its headway.

To be perfectly honest, the Sirasa venture should be adulated in light of the way that it was beneficially so different to other such t.v. programs which were 'talk program' where it was woeful that the parts were awkwardly not music artistes yet were from totally unique fields. Some were endeavoring to mix Western music with Eastern music, however the reality of the situation is that the west would reliably be the west and the east constantly the east, Wickramasinghe said.
