Introduction I have always loved and admired Indian classical music and its great interpreters . Listening to great masters such as tabla gurus Pt. Suresh Talwalkar and Pt. Zakir Hussain makes you wonder if you ever will be able to grasp the depth of it. Many years ago I acknowledged that I as a western composer and percussion player never will be able to play the tablas properly, but since I fell in love with the Ektaal, I decided to reflect on it and try to transfer the ektaal‐feeling on to western instruments and sounds. The instruments I have chosen for this piece is western modern instruments with only a fraction of soundcreating possibilities compared to the Indian tablas. The intensions of Ektaal Reflections is therefore NOT an attempt to sound like tablas and real Indian music, but to make a crossover between Indian and western music and to give all non ‐tabla players an opportunity to enjoy this beautiful taal. Ektaal is one of Indias most popular taals or talas. TALA is a re‐occuring rhythmetic framework of certain number of beats divided in a particular way. Some talas contain only a few beats while others have more than a hundred. In ektaal there is 12 MATRAS (beats) which is put together into 6 VIBHAGAS (groups) of 2 beats. Indian musicians feel “beat” called ZARB, by counting vibhagas. To keep track of the tala, the vibhagas has different meanings (accentuations). In ektaal these are: SUM which always will be the first beat in the first vibhaga, the 2ndvibhaga is KHALI is “empty” (not accentuated), the 3rdvibhaga isTALI accentuated, the 4th is KHALI, 5th and 6th is TALI. The musician learns to “keeping tal” by clapping hands, a clap representing an accented vibhaga (sum and tali) and a wave of the hand representing an “empty” vibhaga (khali). These accentuations by counting vibhagas is not necessarily to be heard in Indian music, but is a tool to help you keep track of the tala. I have decided to let these be played on the hi‐hat at some points. The Indian musician will learn the many different sounds and beats on the tablas by pronouncing the sound . This is called THEKA or BOLES and is often heard solo or simultaneously with the playing. You should try to pronounce the ektaaltheka boles as you think it wouldsound on the tablas. Then listen to your instruments fors thi piece and make your own “western theka‐ boles”. If you are really into it, it might even be possible to do this in the piece, perhaps in the ad. Lib. Vamps sections. Above all, Ektaal Reflections should be played with a good groovy and virtuostic feeling and some good sense of humor. Søren Monrad Ektaal (12 beats) .

The vamps should always be improvisations played soft and in the style of ektaal with the hi‐hat playing on 1‐5‐9‐11th beat. The vamps are to be repeated as you like.

  • 1St PROGRESS REPORT Scheme : “Safeguarding the Intangible
    1 1st PROGRESS REPORT Scheme : “Safeguarding the Intangible Cultural Heritage and Diverse Cultural Traditions of India. Title of the Project/Purpose: Prepared by: Shri Bipul Ojah “A study of various aspects of Khol: Village- Dalahati A Sattriya Musical Instrument” Barpeta-781301 Assam During the first reporting period I proceeded with my works as per my plan, and took up two tasks mentioned in the plan. One of them was to acquire knowledge of ‘Ga-Maan’, “Chok’, “Ghat” etc. of the main time division (taal) of Khol from the experienced masters and Sattriyas of the Satras belonging to the three main groups. The other task was to prepare the pattern of the time division in a scientific method by maintaining the characteristic features of the Sattriya Khol on the basis of the acquired knowledge. For these two tasks, I first chose Barpeta Satra and the Satras of the Kamalabari group of Majuli, and apart from doing field study there, I acquired knowledge of the Khol from the masters there. In this course I talked to Sri Basistha Dev Sarma, Burha Sattriya of Barpeta Satra, Sri Nabajit Das, Deka Sattriya of Barpeta Satra, Sri Jagannath Barbayan (92 years), the chief ‘Bayan’ of Barpeta Satra and Sri Akan Chandra Bayan, besides several distinguished Sattriya artists and writers such as Sri Nilkanta Sutradhar, Sri Gunindra Nath Ojah, Dr. Birinchi Kumar Das, Dr. Babul Chandra Das etc. Moreover, I studied various ‘Charit Books’ (biographies of the Vaishnavite saints), research books etc. and got various data on the Khol practiced in Barpeta Satra. After completing these works on the Khol of Barpeta Satra, I worked on the time division (taal) of the Khol practiced in the Satras of the Kamalabari group of Majuli.

PO – SARPARA. PS- PALASBARI (MIRZA) DIST – KAMRUP (ASSAM) PIN NO _ 781122 MOBILE NO – 9854491051 0 HISTORY OF SATRIYA AND MANIPURI DANCE Satrya Dance: To know the history of Satriya dance firstly we have to mention that it is a unique and completely self creation of the great Guru Mahapurusha Shri Shankardeva. Shri Shankardeva was a polymath, a saint, scholar, great poet, play Wright, social-religious reformer and a figure of importance in cultural and religious history of Assam and India. In the 15th and 16th century, the founder of Nava Vaishnavism Mahapurusha Shri Shankardeva created the beautiful dance form which is used in the act called the Ankiya Bhaona. 1 Today it is recognised as a prime Indian classical dance like the Bharatnatyam, Odishi, and Kathak etc. According to the Natya Shastra, and Abhinaya Darpan it is found that before Shankardeva's time i.e. in the 2nd century BC. Some traditional dances were performed in ancient Assam. Again in the Kalika Purana, which was written in the 11th century, we found that in that time also there were uses of songs, musical instruments and dance along with Mudras of 108 types. Those Mudras are used in the Ojha Pali dance and Satriya dance later as the “Nritya“ and “Nritya hasta”. Besides, we found proof that in the temples of ancient Assam, there were use of “Nati” and “Devadashi Nritya” to please God.

GUIDE TO THE TEXT FORMATTING Throughout this curriculum, we have used different text formats to help simplify the directions for each lesson. Our hope is that this format will allow you to keep better track of your steps while you are on your feet in class teaching a lesson. There are two main formatting types to recognize. 1) Any “scripted” suggestions—especially all questions—appear in “blue” with quotation marks. 2) Basic action headings are set in bold italic. (Options are in parentheses.) Note: For CD tracks, we list the track number first, then the title. For example: MEET THE ARTIST • Read Sameer Gupta’s Meet the Artist handout (out loud). • Summarize what the artist has said (on paper). • “Based on what we know about Sameer, what might his music sound like?“ • Listen to CD Track 1, Sameer Gupta’s “Yaman.” • “Now that you have heard the music, were your guesses right?“ • Transition: Sameer Gupta is an expert at working with musical freedom and structure. To get to know his work, we will need to become experts on freedom and structure.
