STUDY OF FORMS (Definations)

D hrupad and Dhamar  D hrupad and Dhamar are the oldest forms of Hindustani classical music which are still in vogue. It is believed that these forms have their roots in the ancient compositional form ‘Prabandha’. In these forms, there is special emphasis on the purity of Raga.  Sung to the accompaniment of Pakhawaj, the Dhrupad form is set to Talas such as Chau Tala, Sool Tala, Brahma Tala etc., whereas the Dhamar form is set to Dhamar Tala.

Elements of "Tall". Part 1

M usic is a performing art which is perceived during the process of creation as against Visual arts like Painting, Sculpture and Architecture, which are perceived after the process of creation is completed. Music is determined by the movement of audible forms that give the illusion of virtual time. Just as Visual arts need a measure of space, Performing arts need a measure of time. In Hindustani music, a composition is set to a particular ‘Tala’ or beat with definite intervals. Through the medium of ‘Tala’, an appearance of motion is achieved with the passage of one interval and onset of another. The duration between these intervals gives us the measure of time. This is virtual time that is created within the musical composition. OBJECTIVE Through this lesson, the learner would be able to : - explain the concept and meaning of Tala ; - define Tala ; - differenciate between the ancient and present day of Tala ; - describe the given elements of Tala ; - state the Bols of the

ELEMENTS OF RAGA

  ELEMENTS OF RAGA I n Indian society, music finds expression through    classical as  well as folk streams. The basis of all classical music is believed  to be folk music, which takes the form of classical music upon being bound  by certain rules. The tradition of Hindustani classical music in India abounds   in various styles as well as forms. The basic melodic structure that defines them is   called ‘Raga’. The concepts of Raga and Tala give expression to the main components of music, that is melody and rhythm respectively. If Tala forms the rhythmic foundation upon which a composition is  established, then Raga is the core of the composition’s melodic configuration and its elaboration spanning different forms and styles of Hindustani classical music. The classical character of Hindustani music is exemplified through the medium of Raga in that it adheres to strict rules, which are not seen in other streams of music.   OBJECTIVE After studying this lesson, the learner would be able t
