learning a bit of theory in Carnatic music...

sujatha,

if you ask me so much details i would come out looking dumbhead.
I am only a connoisseur of music.

anyways, there is a link in you tube that teaches you to practice the notes. you get to know more links from there.

check it out. there are books for the same.

 

Thank you Shanti!! I will check it out.

 

Prof. Sambamurthy's books are well known for Carnatic Music theory. He has authored different levels of books and they are available at Giri Traders and the entire volume will be available at the shop that Shanvy mentioned.

Shanvy, I remember when I used to go there to find books. Such a respite that place gave from the Madras heat! The smell of old books just added to the beauty

Shanthi, my questions...
What is the ideal age for music classes, both vocal and instrumental?

Hi Latha,

I am also living in Munich and I am extremely delighted to hear that someone is on the lookout to learn carnatic music.

I have been singing carnatic for a very long time, however I miss it so much here.

Btw I am from Chennai too

Guess we should catch up.

This time I got some nice raga alapana DVDs from Madras.

Waiting to hear from u.
