  • Mind-bogglingly complex carnatic rhythms can be simplified to its basic foundations: rhythmic cycles! Adi Tala is the most common rhythmic cycle in carnatic music, and I'm here to introduce this simple concept to all of you.
    From this simple 8-beat cycle spring forth multitudes of mathematical rhythmic patterns. It's been an amazing adventure discovering the rhythms of South Indian Classical music, and I hope you'll join me on this journey.

    Hey Neil, this videeo is great! Thank you! Since uploading this, have you covering the vocal sounds and their meaning? I feel this would assist me, and perhaps some others too quite likely, in better understanding.

    *You are an amazing teacher.*
    Wow! You so nicely, easily and with such technical illustrations explained such a seemingly complex rhythm in just less than 5 minutes. Whereas with an Indian teacher/s (mostly who are actually talented performers in the strict sense) would have taken weeks or more than a month or even probably a year to make his student/s make understand & ably recreate such concepts. And in the process, keep students gravitating to him and let them remain amazed by making them think what a high level of rhythmic complexity - Indian rhythms are !!! LOL.

      Thanks for your kind words sir! While Indian rhythms definitely are very complex, it doesn’t have to seem so unattainable to new learners! Breaking it down into simple steps is the way, and I am blessed to have a great teacher to help me help others understand this.

    WOW Mind blown! Subbed
    Great video. Thanks
    One curiosity I noticed oddly "tanga" is only 2 syllables, but lasts 3 beats!
    any explanation or reason? Thanks again

    • @neilchanmusic
      @neilchanmusic  Před 2 lety +2

      Hey Drew, thanks for the sub! Yes any syllable can last for more than 1 beat. So 'thangu' is 3 beats, you can think of it as follows: Tha - aang - gu', where 'tha -aang' is two beats, but vocalised as one syllable. It's common to also vocalise the 'aang' part as a separate syllable, to make counting the 3 beats simpler. Hope this helps!

      Yes you are right! the last beat just signals the start of a new cycle, so it’s beat 1 of a brand new cycle of 32 beats
