About the Book

This book is a small compilation from the vast repertoire of Indian percussion Tabla. This is an outcome of more than one decade efforts to gather an extensive amount of varied Tabla compositions; I received as Guru-Krupa from Sri S Sai Ram sir, Late Guru Chintamani Pujahari and from Pandit Nishikant Barodekar, who happened to receive this art from Ustad Allarakha Khan Saheb and Ustad Zakir Hussain of Punjab Gharana. This book comprises more than one hundred fifty compositions which includes advanced Kaidas, Relas, Gats, Tukudas and Chakradars in Teen Taal. All the compositions in this book are scripted in Indian notation system and in a short-form-notation for easy reading. Most of the compositions are from Punjab repertoire. The purpose behind foregathering these wide-ranging compositions in a single place is to make accessible the valuable treasure of Gharanedar Tabla for any kind of further study and to preserve the intact of the precious traditional compositions in a written form as the oral transmission causes subtle changes to the music. Hope, this English version book may help the students of Tabla beyond cultures, who can read this notation and may increase their understanding of Tabla. At large, it would give a better and deeper insight to the realm of Indian rhythm.
