In classical vocal music, Layakari (the rhythmic play) plays a very important role in enhancing the beauty of the performance. The rhythmic improvisations and Tihaai certainly add value to Raga Music. In this concert Sameer will focus on the different varieties of layakari and will showcase the technical virtuosity particularly in Gwalior style of singing.
