TablaSite Composition Database

This section has been deleted

The Tabla Composition Database was an idea that we pursued years ago. Unfortunately, it did not work out. The idea was that this would be a user accessible database where users could submit compositions and read compositions submitted by others

The problem was that the notation of Indian rhythmic patterns (Taal Lippi), is a skill which is not stressed in traditional tabla training. The result was that most of the submissions were of such poor quality as to be useless. Therefore, this section was deleted many years ago.

However, there is still a lot of good information to be found on tabla and tabla compositions. simply go to:
