Musicians with their songs and tunes manage to win hearts of millions of people all around the world. In fact every forte of music has its own star. Like Michael Jackson is the king of rock music, every type of music has its individual fan following as well.

Apart from the well renowned celebrities in music, there may be others not so famous but skilled also. Both the famous and the not so famous musicians manage to spread their talent and entertain people around the world. These musicians if assessed during their working tenure could be made aware of their weaknesses and that will help them to work on them and enhance their efficiency and talent.

Therefore in order enable candid evaluation of the real talent and skills of musician, it is essential to assess them post their death. This process will keep them alive even thousand years after their death.The greatest achievement of an artist persist in the hearts and in the music of the future generation pertinaciously.
