Keerthanam

Keerthanam is a musical composition that typically consists of devotional lyrics and is set to a specific raga and tala. Keerthanams are an essential part of the Carnatic music repertoire and are often used in religious and spiritual contexts, such as during worship and religious gatherings.

A Carnatic Keerthanam generally follows a structured format, including Pallavi, Anupallavi and Charanam.
