Learn ‘Gamaka’ – The Main Ornamentation for Indian Classical Music- Raag Yaman -Alap | Jod | Jhala – in Details

New Bansuri Tutorial!! In Raag Yaman!!

Showing 3 basic parts of Alap

1. Alap:

   This is the initial, slow, and unmetered (non-rhythmic) section where the notes of the raga are introduced and explored. It’s often unaccompanied, except for the drone of the tanpura.
2. Jor:

   As the tempo increases, a steady pulse or rhythmic movement is introduced, marking the transition to the “jor” section. It’s a faster section than the alap, but still relatively slow compared to jhala.
3. Jhala:

   This is the final, fast, and rhythmic section where the tempo is at its peak, and the rhythmic element takes precedence over the melodic. It’s characterized by a rapid and intricate rhythmic pattern, often with a climax or “nomtom”.
