About Aarthi

vocal training class“The name Carnatic music refers to the traditional music of a region called Carnatic. All books on recent Indian history note that before British rule, the kingdoms in South India were: Travancore – most of today’s Kerala, Mysore – the southern part of today’s Karnataka excluding the west coast, and Carnatic- most of South India. (almost the same as Madras State of the 1950s i.e. all of today’s Tamil Nadu, southern Andhra and some neighboring areas). When the Carnatic kingdom came under British control, they renamed it Madras Presidency. They also renamed the town of Chennai patnam as Madras City… see Encyclopedia Britannica for a map of Carnatic…….Tamil ‘Nadu’ is also often called as Tamil ‘agam’. ‘Karu’ means black and also means central. ‘naadu’ means country and ‘agam’ means home. Thus Karunaadu meant central country, as well as black (people) country. The name ‘karu naad agam’ got anglicized to ‘Carnatic’ state. In Tamil, the word karunaadagam is still used. The British renamed the territory as Madras.

About the lesson

Karnatik music today revolves around the celebrated trinity, Tyagaraja, Dikshitar and Syamasastri. In Tamil Nadu, Tamil isai also has a phenomenal growth. Then one may question as to whether these two are different ones. If one does a deep research then one may come to the conclusion that these are one and the same.

It is generally said that music came from sama veda. Similarly in Tamil tradition, musical texts are available right from the first sangam period. Works which are meant for singing had the name “padal”. Lot of musical references are found in tamil poetic works like Tolkappiyam, Silappadikaram etc.

In Tolkappiyam we find the reference that land was divided into five namely, palai, kurinji, mullai, marudam and neidal. Each land had its own major scale and their names are Palaiyaz, Kurinji yaz, mullai yaz, maruda yaz and neidal yaz. Yaz was the term used for indicating both major scale as well as an instrument, which formed the basis for the present day vina. Palai yaz corresponds to Cempalai which may be taken as equivalent to the present day Harikambhoji scale. Kurinji is considered as Sankarabharanam. Mullaipperumpan corresponds to harikambhoji and mullaippan, mohanam. Maruda yaz corresponds to the present day kalyani scale. Neidal is considered to be tiran il yaz.

In “Paripadal”, we find that one person writes the lyrics and another person tunes the song, which may be compared to the present day practice in the cine field. Thus, if Kannaganar wrote the lyrics, it was tuned by Pettanaganar. We find pans like “Notiram” employed for tuning the song. “Pan” was the term used in Tamil books for the term “raga” used in musical parlance.
