How to Break down rhythm to its lowest denominator for practice

[@Snoozy310]

“Learn it slow” - perfect advice that can be applied everywhere, to anything. His experience speaks common sense, and this was very aptly named “Anubhav”.

The problem is, you must already have a decent technique to play this bol similar to Zakir and you don't get it while practising, no matter the speed. It's more like an end-boss in a game while you don't have the skills to beat him in the first levels.

[@dyingbreed9794]

I am doing my math thesis on distributive lattices and I just got inspired by this....half and quarter speed and filling up the space in a manner such that space is even every time. This helped me so much in a concept called "homomorphisms". Thank you Zakir sir.

[@I_am_Dipanjan]

Hello, I am an undergraduate physics student and a musician (tabla player specifically), could you please tell me something more about you thesis? It seems pretty interesting! 😅

[@aakhthuu]

+1 Yes I am interested as well

[@subhadipbanerjee612]

I learn hindustani vocal, and the same idea helped me to understand the concept of 'space filling homomorphism'

[@naraharikasagattaramesh9241]

Hi, anyone got in contact with this person. I am constantly looking at this thread, if the person has replied, very curious to know the thesis 😅

[@abhishekkudwa5150]

can you let me in regarding this, myself a tabla player too and doing my Btech.

[@asifequbal8390]

India has a great pool of talent. We are wasting them fighting over religion and caste.

[@1405_appy]

A lot of people don't understand how difficult it is to play with this perfection in such a low tempo. Ustad for a reason.🙏

This man deserves a Bharat Ratna!! If you are an indian then he has existed in our consciousness from forever!! He is the son of the greatest tabla player of all time....who can ever even momentarily forget that?... Ustad Zakir Hussain is our guru!!

[@navneetraman8279]

surprised he is not a bharat ratna, maybe because he is Bharatendu ( The Moon of India!) One and only one.

[@guneetsingh9750]

He is just too good, very few people in the world can do it even after knowing this technique, but so generous of him to share.

[@diy_rabbithole]

in 10 minutes of casual lesson from him, I learnt about 8-10 mind blowing things that I never realized before.

[@acharyasoni1]

Amazing...He is a bibhuti...may God bless him with a very long life with good health.

[@lvlDlvl]

Three most important words from Ustadji: even every time. A lot of tabla got summarized in these three words ! ❤

[@wetstreets]

He is playing tabla with his fingers, hands, body , emotions, mind and heart.... this is giving YOUR 100%... and when you do that.. you become 1% like Guruji...and when you do this over and over again for 3-4 decades... you become 90% like Guruji.... last 10% is blessing from God....

[@ec8610]

This is such a great initiative by Hariprasad Chaurasia ji

[@MrAvinash79]

Priceless advice🙏. Slowing down the pace of a kayda and then placing the syllables before OR after the standard position brings so much new life and beauty to the rendition. There are countless possibilities here and a sincere student can design his/her own patterns and improvise even on the first kayda that is taught in tabla. We need gurus who can expose sincere students to such priceless doors to improvisation.

[@cyrusghosh]

Ustad ji played simple delhi Dha tit kayda and changed the entire perspective to view Rhythm

[@peteraltenberg1]

I love this! Zakirji's lessons about riyaz always the best. Also, as non-native, mediocre Hindi speaker I can really understand his Hindi very well. And I love phrases like "For instance, ek simple cheese hay."

[@sadhuwaad]

same goes for singers. what a lesson by Ustad ji. 🙏

[@spdcrzy]

This was one of the hardest things for me to learn growing up as a tabla student. Playing slow, in time, WITH VARIETY is really, really, really, REALLY hard.

Amazing wisdom and a great lesson not just in music but for everything.

[@NiteshBahekar]

Kya jabardast tips hai. Thank you very much Zakir ji for sharing and Hari ji for such an initiative. The knowledge from such maestros shouldn't go waste and should be passed on to new generation like old Indian knowledge was just passed verbally from generation to generation Guru to Shishya. And not written in the manuscript. Very good initiative by Vrindaban.

In Pitman English stenography to build speed later upto 200 words per minute , what the book advises to the student is to ...hasten slowly.... to build slowly and steadily faster, without compromising quality.

[@Bob-hd5js]

Best advice ever given, the most advanced message taught with such simplicity 👌

[@HumHindustani007]

So true… your brain runs the show if you are playing tabla or dholak. He understands that very well and that is why there is no one like him on this planet!!!

[@imalive404]

That peripheral arrangement is putting you away from the intimacy with this. you must be intimate.

[@johnpinto3857]

Beautiful advice from the legend ❤.

[@sachinchitnis2608]

For whole of the tabla players community, Ustadji playing tabla is just as important as Sun consuming it's hydrogen reserves to generate energy. Pt. Suresh Talwalkar always says that the Guru must impart energy to students to practice more and more. Ustadji has given that energy, that ray of hope to all the tabla players, that yes, its possible, stay on course. So, without being the teacher for many thousands of tabla players, he is "the teacher" for all of us. Can there be any better connection than this ? Can it be more divine than this ?

[@radhagopinathji1989]

There is nothing more divine than the relationship between guru and shishya ...that's why this sloka explains the chronology...mata pita guru daivam ...the mom first shows you the world and also your father then the father and mother help you find your guru and ultimately your gati is daivam that is God . Pure bliss

Why not Pakistani legends conduct such learning sessions? In 34 years of my life except Ustad Shahbaz Hussain , haven't seen ustad Tari sahab , Jimmy khan sahab, etc doing something like this. This is why India is way far successful in Music and arts industry as compare to Pakistan

[@ateequrrehman87]

It has got to do with the culture that has been developed in Pakistan. Music teachers are too stubborn to talk positively about their contemporary musicians, so as a result Young students are never encouraged to listen to or respect other teachers, players and musicians except for their own lineage. This important factor is very much present in Indian Gurus. They respect each other and the same is transferred to the Shishya. However this important reason is just one reason for India to be way much further in music, there are many many others.

[@userb7026]

These types of music and instruments are intertwined with the dharmic religions originated in India it's supposed to be a form of worship to the respective gods. Pakistan is too intolerant to allow such musical instruments to be learned and played in their country because of their religion and it's limitations, they'll be happy to open madarsaas for young indoctrination, but won't open gurukuls for cultural studies. in india you'll see a Muslim sitaar player paying his respect to god Saraswati before playing, but doing so in Pakistan would mean death. it's a sad affair but it's catching up on today's india aswell, you won't see sitaar, flute, tabla, shehnai players in the coming generation of Indian muslims, cause they're too busy separating themselves from their ancestral culture cause they'd rather be a martyr then follow the traditions and culture of kufrs
