About the Course
The fundamental course is divided into two parts to provide an in-depth learning experience. It has been designed in this way, also, to give ample scope and time to the students to learn at their own pace. This course is designed as a natural progression from the course - Basics of Hindustani Vocal Lessons.
In the earlier course, you learned voice training exercises that have helped you to identify the notes and sing them correctly in sequence or combination with one another.
In this course, you will learn more complex paltas. You will learn how to hop and slide from one note to another. You will learn to sing complex phrases by mixing and juxtaposing four to five notes together. The more you do such exercises the better it is for enhancing your vocal range and for making your voice agile for delivering various vocal techniques across all three octaves.
Likewise, your knowledge and practical skill set for singing the Ragas as well as your understanding of Taal and Lay will also rise to the next level.
The highlights of this course include -
- intensive voice training with a more complex combination of notes and platas.
- incorporating breathing techniques while practicing the paltas.
- learning to sing paltas with taal and lay (rhythm and tempo)
- understanding the structure of a chhota khayal - complete with singing arohan, abrohan, pakad, a simple alaap, bandish, and taans in 8 and 16 matras of Teentaal.
