WiTh lOvE FrOm Sreejesh Nair...
"The hand of God works in very mysterious ways. I met Stephen Devassy around 2 months after the Rockstar concert in mumbai, but we spoke like the friends
we were when we met 10 years back in Chethana. He was studying music and I was
studying sound with his bother Sam
Devassy. I am no one to speak about his immense talent. I have no
right to talk about the years of hard work he has put into becoming what he is
today. Yet, I cannot but draw inspiration from what he is.
Everyone has seen a celebrity after attaining that status. Very few people know the hardship they take to be where they are today. He sang a song by Michael W. Smith yesterday. This draws from a deep rooted dream and wish. I remember an evening in Ottapalam, 10 years ago, when I was on the way to his house to have a look at his system, he told me. "I wrote to Michael W. Smith. I hope he replies. I want to be able to sing his song on stage one day." He may have done it before on a different stage, but yesterday, when he sang, it was not the song or music that filled me. It was the realisation of a dream that I was witnessing that inspired me.
Everyone can be humble on the way to achieving a status. But to remain so, after attaining that level, is where the true test lies. Without fail, Stephen aces that. I am a Film Sound mixer by profession. I cannot but put it in his words as he spoke to my family saying, "I perform when you see me on stage, but he (technicians) perform with what we perform to make that magic. Those are performances you dont see." No one can state that in a better way than a gifted performer himself.
Hardwork and dedication always pays off. He is a testimony to that. You dont need to be a performer or a musician for hardwork and practice to start showing. Even when I mix, I have seen practice make things easier for me. But passion for something with eliminates the feeling that its hard work. It becomes a step towards attaining something unexplained. A personal dream, a quiet moment of satisfaction when you reach there.
You may be an atheist, a non believer, a religious person or any one. But when you see him perform, you cannot but marvel at the wonder of a higher power that is present. In his words, "I may not be a born musician. But I was gifted by the Almighty."
