COMMENTS
The first piece is the tratidional theka for "Cara tala Khanda-Jati" as given in Manfred Junius' book about north indian tals. This tal is 4/4/4/4 without khali section. The second is my own adaptions as Kaida/Rela for tintal. Ta is played like open (this is clear from the book because a is a long vowel) I play Dhi with one finger open on siyahi and the first na in dhina naka with two finger on kinar for speed. But this may not be traditional. Catrin

Comment from David Courtney - The intro/theme should have a khali otherwise it violates a cardinal rule of kaida
