I have too a music master degree, from Milan conservatory (Italy). Actually, Western rhythm is bond to syllabation too, especially from Ancient Greek poetry. Practicing time quantisation is often much more mind-blowing than simply using the metronome, but for time economy purpose we always forget it!

lmao

I realize your comment is 4 years old and you might not read this reply. Just in case...i hope you introduced your students to konnakol. I've loved music for as long as I can remember and my elementary school music teacher was pivotal in feeding that interest and developing its structure. She also played us music from different styles and cultures...we learned Beatles songs in 1972. She recommended to my parents that I should receive piano lessons and I'm so thankful. I'm 55 and have earned a living from writing, performing and/or teaching piano & guitar for most of my working life, an ill advised foray into the corporate world notwithstanding. My point is that educators like you are important and appreciated. All the best.

Yoga

!same!

TheZenguitarguy hi, please mail me on manju_bc@yahoo.com

Noooo- So that you western people can fuck that up too like you did with yoga and appropriate it? No - keep it at your own western scales.

I am in Colorado and would come.

TheSunshinefee Obviously yoga hasn't suppressed your ego.

@@TheSunshinefee I'm going to learn konnakol out of spite now.

This is Aadi Taala (8 beat cycle) and it consits of 3 parts. The 8 beats are divided into 3 parts of 4, 2 and 2. The first part is named laghu and the latter 2 parts are named dhrutas. A laghu is counted on the fingers (1 beat plus 3 finger counts = 4) A dhruta is counted by a beat followed by another with upturned palm. Hence 4 beats for the first part, then a beat + palm up and another beat + palm up.

They start from the drutha of the adi thaalam and then go on to the next one. Basically, they flip their hand twice while starting instead of counting the fingers first. Then they count the fingers and flip it two more times to complete that avarthana.

@@sanjanasriv thats very complicated. The hands thingy

@@camiloin Not really tbh. Adi taalam is an 8 beat cycle and instead of starting at the beginning, they start halfway through

@@sanjanasriv why? thnks btw

Thats aadi taala which follows the beat of 1-2-3-4(slap thigh, lil finger placed, ring finger placed and followed by middle finger placed) and then 5-6-7-8 slap-turn over-slap-turn over. Theres many taalas that are use as and when required.

Its natural for people that come from classical music background hence why he says in the beginning that "everone knows aadi taala right ?"

Another name is Sollakattu/Solkattu. Maybe you can search with that name also.

It's a south indian thing. The h denotes a soft t ("thank") and no h means a hard t ("tank"). In romanisation of north indian languages this h-distinction is not used.
