Thanks Prakash for both the interesting history and the practical lesson. It's great to be able to breath some fresh air into minor pentatonics for starters. I'm gonna adopt some of this stuff in my impro.

A breath of fresh air (it gets a bit 'stuffy' in here, sometimes..!). Nice use of a 'heavy-metal' sitar. Instructive (although my old brain, or what's left, isn't going to appreciate an alternate terminology any time soon...).
I tried to improvise finger lubrication with what I had 'on hand' (no pun intended, but I'll keep it in there...). Boot blacking was perhaps not the best choice, it seems... Oh, well, needed new strings, anyway.
Thanks a lot; I hope there are more (well, perhaps not the koto next week; give us a chance to absorb the raga first...).
Anyone got video lessons of sliding with tuba? No? No-one? Good.

Thanks a lot for this lesson. I have been looking for materials for the past couple of weeks on this type of stuff, so it was a pleasant surprise to get the newsletter with this lesson in it.

Thanks again and I hope there are more lessons like this one!

Yup, thanks for posting this. And Johnny Mac's konokol vocal exercises are well worth checking out too.

Great Lesson on Indian style of improvisation.
Here's a link to another highly respected guitarist in Carnatic music.He did his masters in jazz improvisation at Berklee College of Music if I'm not mistaken.

I just bought his 'Live in Sedona' DVD. Good stuff!

Thank you ever so much for the lesson . This forum emailed me and said they missed me . (that's funny) so I checked it out . To my amazement I found this lesson . I've been trying to incorporate some Carnatic style into my playing for a year or so . This lesson on Gamaka (sp?) is exactly what I needed. I've been playing lap style electric slide for 1.5 years along with 20 yrs of bottle neck. This Gamaka technique is the exact sound I've been looking for , and should be a very adaptable to my way of playing.
The books I've been reading say my soul will guide me to what I need to learn if I just Listen to it. This lesson seems to validate the concept for me
Again thank you
