BASIC LESSONS IN CARNATIC MUSIC AND ITS SIGNIFICANCE - PART 4



TARA STHAYI AND MANDARA STHAYI VARISAI

Raga Mayamalava gowla is a Tristhayi Ragam and hence the Sancahris will include Tara Sthayi Panchamam and Mandara Sthayi Madyamam.

Hence it is appropriate to practice Tara Sthayi and Mandara Sthayi exercises  in this Ragam and get perfection to reach both Extreme Swaras after setting an Adhara Shadjam as Sruthi.

More over, this varisai can help Guru make necessary adjustment in fixing Adhara Sruthi of the student if he/ she find it difficult to reach the higher and lower Swaras.
