Hello! I’m Gu Wei, a composer and pianist, and I make educational videos on music theory, composition and performance.
What is a Tihai?
In this video, I share one of the musical devices I have been exploring lately, the Tihai. Discover how it is being used in traditional pieces, as well as how I incorporated it into my own music.

The LONGEST Piano Piece: Vexations
มุมมอง 2.9Kปีที่แล้ว
Vexations by Erik Satie is commonly regarded as the longest piece of music written for the piano, with durations lasting up to more than 30 hours. Besides being known for its length, it also has some curious idiosyncrasies that demand explanations. However, Satie never talked about this piece as it was only discovered long after his death. Is the true meaning behind this piece forever a mystery...

The sun is a star… is a programmatic piece loosely based on the observations of the natural world by the protagonist through a day, from dawn to sunrise, midday to sunset, and dusk to night. Composed and edited by Gu Wei, with special thanks to musicians around the world. ~Check out my music~ www.guweimusic.com/ soundcloud.com/guweimusic
btw try not pronunce it as "TALA" but instead as "TAL"
I just discovered your channel. Thanks for all this super interesting information. Thank you for taking the time to make this. I will continue to watch other videos. I have been playing Tablas for 5 years. Do you happen to know of a book in English about tablas?
Thanks for watching! I’ve referred to ‘Facets of Tabla Playing’ by Pt. Ashis Sengupta for some of my research - it’s quite a valuable resource.
Thank you very much, I just ordered it. And please make us more such videos on Indian music.
You're soo underrated 😢
Nice
Lovely transitionings.
It looks 4 to me
WOW, RESPECTS TO you for learning Indian Classical music. ❤
As someone who actually knows what it is i just wanted some perspective and what an immaculate way to explain it. Keep going
❤❤❤Subscribed
Hello I was at your performance earlier 😊
Come say hi next time! 😄
@@guweimusic yea sure my mom was the one talking to u at the end of ur Khamaj performance
Great video Gu Wei!!! 🤩🤩
Thank you Xin Tong!!
VERY useful explanation of Tihai! Thnx
So much to learn here. Nicely explained.
Greetings from India. Make more such beautiful videos. Also check out carnatic music and konnakol
That was astounding! Thank you!
Really unique way to explain Tihai. As musician myself mostly learned in Western style, I found your explanation really good as an Indian myself.
Wow
I've heard of Tihar (should be my place of abode) but not Tihai......interesting
Such a well made video highlighting Amy Beach’s talent. Thank you for all the wonderful content on your channel 👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you! 🙌🙌
Excellent
Good work keep it up Thanks
I love the incorporation of Indian (or any other cultural system) structure into an ostensibly standard/western piece. So much more interesting to see the theory applied, rather than just incorporating an instrument or whatever.
Thank you for this beautiful video,, love the work
Tihai = 1/3
So beautiful ❤
Great ❤
good to see how r u trying to understand Indian classical music ❤
Much better explanation 🙏
aku cinta indian musik😊
This guy is a genius
Great explanation of tihai. Don't think you can find it explained more clearly, with fantastic examples. I like how you are so knowledgeable about ICM and Western music and using ICM as composition ideas. Keep it up.
do u know singapore name is also from our language, singh/simgh means lion, and pur is used in lots of indian cities also kanpur, nagpur, jaipur, hastinapur
Yes! We call ourselves the ‘lion city’ sometimes. Interesting to know that many Indian cities’ names came from the same root 👍
One of the simplest and best explanations of the Tihai.
Tihai is a very vast subject. You should first mention that it is meant to indicate the end of a part/piece/solo,,, in a composition (not sure you mentioned it). Always at the end of something, never in the beginning or middle (although some composition start from the middle of the rhythm cycle, then the tihai could end there). There are also many different types of tihai, such as chakradar (tihai repeated 3 times so nine repetition in total) or bedam (tihai without the space inbetween the repetition). An easy method of making a tihai is to multiply by 2 the rhythm cycle and add 1 then divide by 3. In 7 beat cycle for example, 7*2+1=15/3=5 so 5beat 3 times would be the tihai. Lastly, it is a detail but for teentaal dha tin tin ta ta dhin dhin dha is not correct for the khali part. The correct way is dha tin tin na na dhin ,,, The na sound and ta sound are different on tabla.
Its വീണ bro വീണ ❤
Amazing explanation.. ❤
Great presentation. From Australia.
16:50 🤯🤯🤯
Very well explained 😍 Thank you so much 🥰
Tihai is not a new system or pattern In carnatic music mirdandam, it is kanda nadai in adi ( Teel Taal) The Bol is Naganathimi (5) thaam (1) naganathimi (5) thaam (1) Naganathimi (5)
Fascinating!! Thanks!!
Awesome. Kudos from India. Subscribed
Thank you! 😄
Incredible
Well done
The illustrations and timing was amazing especially for the Darbar video. This really cleared up a lot for a beginner like me.
Good work! Keep it up!
Your sitar is not in tune…..especially chikari
I didn’t even notice because I was focused on the tala. Small tunes in harmony with thihais, focuses attention more on unity of all tones/tunes. Of course for Indian sur is at the heart which I completely agree with, but for that it takes certain kind of ears. Cycle of rhythm over time teaches what tune is or rather sound in context of minds framework.
Guess where a trained Indian classical musician's attention goes to? 'Your sitar is out of tune'. Yes for many this might seem tuned. But it's a strict no no even if it's off by the slightest of margins. And your sitar... The moment you plucked the strings for the first time... Sounded bad. In India we call it Bae-sura ( Not in the correct tune). You cannot practice anything that's not tuned. Don't get me wrong. I really appreciate your efforts in making this video. And i like it ❤
Thanks for the feedback! 🙌
9:33 perfect bravo bravo 😍😍😍
I wish may God bless you and more and more students join our beloved unexplored Hindustani classical music. ❤😊❤
