Rupak - Clap & Wave

Clap & Wave

Using the 'Clap & Wave' system can be problematic for Rupak Tala. Traditionally one claps on sam, or taali, and waves on khali. The first matra of Rupak Tala, however, is both taali and khali. If the clap were to be present on sam then Rupak Tala may be confused for a similar tala of seven matras, Tivra Tala, that has identical vibhags but differs in that the first matra is taali.

Famous quotes containing the words clap and/or wave:

    In matter of commerce the fault of the Dutch
    Is offering too little and asking too much.
    The French are with equal advantage content,
    So we clap on Dutch bottoms just twenty per cent.
    George Canning (1770–1827)

    And his wish is intimacy,
    Intimater intimacy,
    And a stricter privacy;
    The impossible shall yet be done,
    And, being two, shall still be one.
    As the wave breaks to foam on shelves,
    Then runs into a wave again,
    So lovers melt their sundered selves,
    Yet melted would be twain.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
