Namaskar Dear ji 🙏
Hope you're doing safe!
The days so far haven't been safe for us.
But life has its own course & LORD DIRECTS THE WAY.
It has been quite long since I wrote to you last.
I've been trying hard to make our Music accessible for all.
But assimilating all that is good requires a lot of effort for the want of authentic sources.
To quote Pandit Suresh Talwalkar ji- the Tabla legend:
"THEKA is the first composition of a TAAL"
This definition is very insightful and so I began a quest to accumulate enough scouring through numerous sources.
I'm progressing well as the feedback from my friends suggest!
Presenting to you:
'TAALKOSH' - an online directory of the THEKAS
along with their Styles, Divisions, Matras, Tali-Khali, Reference etc.
This is a work in progress and I humbly request you to check them out; suggest/insist on corrections, supply me with your references as well.
I will try to include the TALAS as much as humanly possible.
Hope to receive your blessings, suggestions & cooperation forever.
Musically,
Dhriti Gobinda Dutta
