COMMENTS
"This is the phrase for a Chakradhar I composed based on comps from Punjab and Benaras. The main emphasis is on the use of Dhin in the Tihai section of the piece. This sound is supposed to mimic the use of Meend in Raag. This was what I borrowed from the Original 'Farmaishi' piece of Benaras. Of course this phrase will be repeated 3 times in all as a Bedum Chakradhar. The 'n' bols are using the middle and ring finger both on the edge of the syahi or just the ring finger." - Sajjad Chowdhry
