Tillanas
Sangita Kalanidhi Chitravina N Ravikiran teaches Vintage Thillanas in this series that covers thillanas of a more classical approach as adopted by earlier composers. The Vintage Thillanas are set in rakti or ghana ragas and offer a contrast by setting a tranquil mood as opposed to more dynamic contemporary thillanas which have a more mathematical approach to the rhythmic sections.
