Dear sharma sir,


While playing the Sahityam and also Chitta swaras in high speed, I give gamaka only to the ones which have more gaps( like: R , G , , ) I avoid giving gamakas to single swaras(like: P M R G R S) can we skip the gamkas at such single swaras to play in high speed.

Like for instance if we play Durbar varnam in violin, we do gamaka for m, esp for G, also N. In first speed, I give good gamakas to bring the Raga bhava, but i am struggling with high speed. I also practise singing varnams daily in different speeds with talams. I am not able to bring the same beauty in violin while playing the high speed.

Could you give me more tips to play varnams in second speed.

Thanking you..................
