In this week's lesson, I cover the time frames: Tintal, Rupak, Jhaptal; the concept of “Tehai” and how it is used in each tal.
Tintal: (16 beat cycle) review:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16
Dha dhin dhin dha Dha dhin dhin dha Na tin tin ta Ta dhin dhin dha
Rupak: (7 beat cycle)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Tin tin na Dhi na Dhi na
Jhaptal: (10 beat cycle)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Dhin na Dhin Dhin na Tin na dhin dhin na
New sounds:
Ne = 2 fingers, the ring and pinky which makes a half-open and half-closed sound
Din = the four fingers in the right hand for an open, ringing bell sound.
New phrase:
Te te ka te Gha di ghe ne
New phrased used in a tehai:
Tintal basic:
tetekatha ghadigene dha —
Tintal chakradar: (tintal within tintal)
tetekatha ghadigene dha dha dha (3 X 3)
Rupak:
tetekatha ghadigene dha (start next on upbeat 8th note)
Jhaptal:
tetekatha ghadigene dha (quarter note rest in between)
Tha = (forgot to go over this one. It's a 4-finger closed sound like Te but with all for fingers on the gab (black spot).
