So that first part which I just played is called peskar. Um, it's similar to an alop from a melodic perspective where you're introducing the tal and you're also exploring it and all of the different dynamics. Um, there are restrictions but it's not quite as restricted as a rag. Um, and uh, what I presented was a mixture between the luckno gana with something called paltka. So you heard a lot of das and dins basically you utilizing the tekka of tintal along with some elements of punjab uh I kind of used the chelan that I had learned from zakir hussein um you know may he forever be green as he always will be um and mixed it with luck knows paltate uh the next few compositions you're going to be hearing are kaidas kaidas are fixed compositions with a recurring theme. Um, so I'll play the theme first. It'll go into double speed and then there will be variations of that uh kaida um in various different ways which uh is not memorized. So it's whatever is improvised on the spot. So um let's see what happens.

So this composition uh is inspired by uh a chalan that I actually had heard from the Austad Hashim from Afghanistan. I've play I'll play a chum for you and then I've turned it into a den.
Hey, hey, hey.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Thank you Oh, heat. Hey.
The kila I'm about to play is a very famous kila. It's from the Delhi Ghana.
Basically the origin of tabla. Um and um I will present it in the deadly style first which will use two fingers and then I'll switch over more to the luckno style which uses more of a full hand approach. So you'll see the difference the tone might even change. Um so Delhi style then luck Heat. Heat. N.
Hey, hey, hey.
Heat. Heat. N.
Heat. Heat.
Heat. Heat.

feel.
Hey Heat. Heat.
Heat. Heat. N.
What do you want?
Yeah.
I'll play a few guts. These are typically fixed compositions much shorter than kaidas. Um and the guts primarily are going to be from the luckno gana which I learned from my guru bindwab chi.
I'll recite it first, then I'll play ground. So, this one comes before some.
Um, I'll play it and then there's a second half to it which I'll play as well. Both land before some. It's called Heat. Heat.
Hey, hey, hey.
another gut.
When I learned this gut, um, I was very young and now somehow it's coming back to me. And I have two kids. They're twins, a boy and a girl. They're 2 years old.
And this gut reminds me of them because the the way kids grow up so quickly from walking, from crawling to walking, and then to eventually running. You'll see a that representation in this gut because it starts off at one speed, then you go into another speed, and then it gets faster. So, uh, moral of the story, life is short.
Let me recite it first, then I'll play it.
D.
Go.
Heat. Heat. N.
Oh my god.
Oh my god.
Hey, hey, hey.
A very famous row from the Lucknog Garana.
Hey, heat. Hey.
Hello.
Next, I'll play a few short composition.
itions typically known as tukras and uh pans.
I'll recite them then I'll play them.
They're very short. They're fixed compositions. So so no room for improvisation at all. The masters were very serious about no improvisation.
Hey, hey, hey.
There we go.
There we go.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Natoo.
A few compositions that end before some are typically a quarter beat, sometimes half a beat as well.
So, you'll notice I'll end before him and then he'll accent the actual sum.
Da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da.
ground.
Hey I'll end off with um a few chakas.
So this is actually a chakra where the way that the masters have composed it, the thihigh at the the first part um of the thih in the first cycle and lands on some on one and then in the second cycle the second part of the thih lands on one and then in the third part the third part of the thihigh lands on one it's quite mathematically complex and I don't know how they built these beautiful compositions Heat. Heat.
Final check.
Ding.
The fingering belling belling again.
The fingering bell.
heart.
Hallelujah.
Heat. Heat.
