Sarali varisai 13

Neighbour-note turns all the way up (Ri Ga Ri Ga, Ma Pa Ma Pa). The closest the sarali series gets to a gamaka shape.

How to do it

  1. Sing it on the swara names with the tanpura, one swara per beat.
  2. Then twice as fast, keeping the beat steady (second speed).
  3. Then on "aa", with the same clarity.

Remember Every swara the same length.

With Sa = G, the first rep
