Dhaatu Varisai
Dhaatu Varisai are sequences in which the notes jump up and down. These exercises help you hit notes no matter what their sequence. These zigzag sequences are more difficult but can be learned with practice. When you have command over them, learn to sing the notes in four speeds with Tala and in Akaaram, singing only aaa.
Raagam: MaayamaaLava gowLa (15th Melakartha)
Tala: Aadi
