Tabla Riyaz

Riyaz Session Sunday,was organized by Sathish Sir at Vailoppilli Sanskriti Bhavan-Nrithamandapam,
Definitely the best I had so far.I found it isn't easy practicing eight hours continuously.A good co-ordination worked out there under proper guidance and the bols were customized to suit different styles of playing.Before noon Keshkar sir joined us and gave ideas to improve.Provided individual attention and inspiration to get motivated.I had a good long practice session of playing tabla.
That sure is a divine experience.And we all hope this will happen Regularly.

so that may account for the bump in traffic.
