Basic Kirtan Beat variation #2
Variation #2 of the Basic Kirtan beat uses for the first time
the hand flick called tiri.
You will recall that earlier I pointed out that when we write tiri
it will always be underlined. This is because sometimes tiri
may be combined with a Ge, and become tiDha. Because
tiDha is underlined, we know it is not just a simple
ti followed by Dha. You see, tiri is a
fast flick of the hand that takes the space of only one beat, not
two.
Note also that when we write tiDha, because the
"D" of "Dha" is uppercase, it means it is
produced with a loud "Ge."
In the RealAudio recording below, we introduce the back
to front teaching method described in Lesson
2.
 The
mantra for this variation goes like this:
ta ta ki tiri
ge tiDha - -
