The growth, strength and inter- supportiveness of these four pillars are key to spreading of the Swaminarayan Faith. Lord Shree Swaminarayan has acknowledged these pillars and laid down the key responsibilities for each of the pillars. He instructed his Nand-Santos to write Shastras which helped the devotees to perform devotion (Bhakti), acquire true knowledge (Gnan), practice righteous living (Dharma) and develop non- attachment to every thing material except Supreme God, Lord Shree Swaminarayan (Vairagya). There are nine types of bhakti, of which, Lord Shree Swaminarayan has singled out Kirtan Bhakti as one of the most important and fundamental in our devotion to God.

Fusion Without Confusion Raga Basics Indian
Fusion Without Confusion Raga Basics Indian Rhythm Basics Solkattu, also known as konnakol is the art of performing percussion syllables vocally. It comes from the Carnatic music tradition of South India and is mostly used in conjunction with instrumental music and dance instruction, although it has been widely adopted throughout the world as a modern composition and performance tool. Similarly, the music of North India has its own system of rhythm vocalization that is based on Bols, which are the vocalization of specific sounds that correspond to specific sounds that are made on the drums of North India, most notably the Tabla drums. Like in the south, the bols are used in musical training, as well as composition and performance. In addition, solkattu sounds are often referred to as bols, and the practice of reciting bols in the north is sometimes referred to as solkattu, so the distinction between the two practices is blurred a bit. The exercises and compositions we will discuss contain bols that are found in both North and South India, however they come from the tradition of the North Indian tabla drums. Furthermore, the theoretical aspect of the compositions is distinctly from the Hindustani, (north Indian) tradition. Hence, for the purpose of this presentation, the use of the term Solkattu refers to the broader, more general practice of Indian rhythmic language. South Indian Percussion Mridangam Dolak Kanjira Gattam North Indian Percussion Tabla Baya (a.k.a. Tabla) Pakhawaj Indian Rhythm Terms Tal (also tala, taal, or taala) – The Indian system of rhythm.

Darbhanga Dhrupad Tradition Sumeet Anand Pandey
Darbhanga Dhrupad Tradition Sumeet Anand Pandey Dhrupad Dhrupad is the oldest surviving genre of Hindustāni (North Indian) classical music, and has its initial origins in the ancient tradition of Vedic chanting1 (2000 BCE). By 1200 CE the styles of Vedic chanting called Chhanda and Prabandha had developed with the introduction of verse and metre. It is from these two styles that Dhrupad emerged. Practitioners of dhrupad, also referred to as Dhrupadiya, treat it as a contemplative and meditative form, sustained for centuries by traditions of classical and devotional music. While its soul remains unchanged, it is thought that dhrupad has adapted its character and temperament over the last fi ve to six centuries. This is possibly due to its vast travels from temples, to royal courts and fi nally into the public performance arena. Dhrupad recital typically begins with an extended alāp,2 sung with tānpura in four stages. It uses the syllables derived from the mantra ‘Om Anant Hari Nārāyana’ to sing its melody. 1 Vedic chanting: a form of religious chanting, where the vocalisation of hymns from the Vedas (ancient scriptures of Hinduism) are repeated in three notes - Udātt, Anudātt and Swarit. 2 Alāp: an introductory melodic improvisation that introduces and develops the rāga. There is no rhythm or percussion. A full alāp has three parts, anibaddha (slow, no meter), j odd or madhya laya (mid-tempo) and Jhāla or drut laya (fast tempo). 2 The Pakhāwaj is a double-headed, barrel-shaped drum used for accompanying the composition. The composition has four parts, namely sthāye, antara, sanchāri and ābhog.

In Indian classical music, a “Gharana” or school refers to the adherence of a group of musicians to a particular musical style of performing a raga. The objective of this work was to find out if any characteristic acoustic cues exist which discriminates a particular gharana from the other. Another intriguing fact is if the artists of the same gharana keep their singing style unchanged over generations or evolution of music takes place like everything else in nature. In this work, we chose to study the similarities and differences in singing style of some artists from at least four consecutive generations representing four different gharanas using robust non-linear methods. For this, alap parts of a particular raga sung by all the artists were analyzed with the help of non linear multifractal analysis (MFDFA and MFDXA) technique.
