- Summary
- "Can music really communicate emotions better than words? Is a person born with music embedded in his DNA? Could two souls bound by music ever find a connection outside of it? Like a superbly arranged musical composition, There are seven notes endeavors to sing a song to reveal the unseen bonds between life and music. Eight year old Hamsa suffers through her vocal lessons to satisfy the cultural aspirations of her family -- a skilled singer steps away from his professional performance to re-assess his life -- and a celebrity father's musical hopes for his son are dashed. The seven stories in There are seven notes reveal the pervasiveness of classical music in Indian culture: an attempt once again to fathom the distance between life and art"--D.j.
