Intense learning hits hard today. We learn the conditions of a thaath, Aarohi and Amrohi of the same and learn the Major scale. Bilaawal thaath. Apparently the run of the mill Sa Re Ga Ma that we are accustomed to singing whenever asked the sargam, is Bilaawal Thaath. Wow. a) Baby actually has a name, b) DUDE Sargam has other forms *blink blink* Welcome to the real world!
Eastern Theory explained saptaks, tones, semi tones, Qayem Komal Teevar and the thaath and raag side of life. I was very proud to understand the concept and reproduce a self explanatory note of my own.
“Thaath is a larger set to which there can be many subsets. Each subset is a separate ‘Raag’”
Flashback of Sir Anjum Rasool’s class. “Sir ek chartered accountant ko iss se kya ke bag mein se pink ball aur blue ball nikalnay ki kya probability hai?”
Had i known singing would remind me of O levels Sets and subsets, I perhaps would’ve been weaned off singing long ago. Yes. That IS how much I loathe mathematics. I think someone made God very angry and He made Math. Hmmph. Decision.
Briefly went through the first five thaaths. I think I get it but it is yet another mathematical logic and I don’t wanna talk about it.
