funny you say that... the violin is often used to accompany the vocals of a singer in Carnatic music. Additionally, the violin is tuned and played differently in Carnatic music to match the singing style, and yes, the Gamakas of the voice is also replicated in the violin

You are right absolutely... Thousands of years evolution in Indian Music. One of the 4 Vedas( Ancient sacred texts of Hinduism ) is actually covers Indian Music and it's rules. All our Ancient texts were actually transferred through songs and hymes until they were written on Palm leaves
It's not a "more advanced" way of singing as art is highly subjective. You can say Indian Classical explores different aspects of music compared to Western Classical and so on.
When she added the gamakas to the notes after singing it plainly, I smiled responsively. Wow, Indian music is phenomenal! Regards from the Philippines!
indian classical is insane. I keep trying to understand but my western classically trained brain can't understand it. it's so cool. I wish I can be taught
Damn dude it was opposite for me I am classical hindustani musician (she talked about carnatic music here) And when i started to learn western music as well, it was easier for me to learn
You can still learn. I started with Indian classical and moved towards western classical and always looked for Indian classical anywhere I could but it's hard to find a teacher. I learnt from just copying Bollywood songs but I like understanding the theory and I can convert this to western theory but there's more that you just have to accept like notes in between general western scales
So would everybody recommend trying to study this carnatic/hindustani music/singing techniques first, so that I can easily improve on western style music/singing? Because I was leaning towards that
I think it’s so amazing how these singers can do all the curves and ornamentations and still find the scale pitches so easily. It’s like they are built in and they can just have fun getting there. love this!!!
I was trained in Indian classical music since I was 5 and trust me, it's not fun getting there at all. Repeated practice of the basics, again, a hell *LOT* of practising and listening to classical songs all my life is what enabled me to sing as I do today. 😄
Wow. I don't know why this is in my recommendations but I thoroughly enjoyed your video! It's very educational and inspiring to know about indian culture because there's rarely people who care to share or teach it to the world. Gamakas do sound fantastic!
Its insane how when she sings it doesn’t even sound like a human voice. I know the voice is technically an instrument but she takes it to a different level! Wow.
@@ilrompiscatole5414 Perhaps check out Shreya Ghoshal and Sonu Nigam live performances - It's common for Indian singers to sound so good especially if they're classically trained. I went to a concert when a Pakistani singer came to South Africa and was blown away.
Omg before this video, I thought Indian yodelling existed. FINALLY, gamaka is the right term! Every time I hear sliding melodies, it automatically transports me to the Indian culture. I keep hearing this in Bollywood films. They usually have musical segments.
I mean, there's a difference in sliding when it's intended and when it's not. Not all music is meant to have slides, just like how not all music is meant to be absent of slides.
Reminds me of my choir director making us sing row by row to pick out the individual who was sliding notes or singing off key. But goodluck learning these techniques
Choral singing is an exact art, that’s why directors don’t like it when choristers add stuff that’s not indicated in the score. When the composer does ask for slides, it will be indicated.
yo for reeeal. i wasn't classically trained for long, but it was enough that when i switched to contemporary i just couldn't (still kinda can't) get the hang of sliding
I'm a singer from Italy. Europeans know nothing about singing tecniques of other continents. I think this is a pity! This style of singing is beautiful. I'm trying to follow your exercises...they are not easy for someone who never tried this style, even if you are already a singer. Thank you, you are an amazing singer! I hope other styles of music will be known more in Italy and Europe. Mixing Cultures and music can create new amazing things... (:
naaah, ti sbagli, l'ultima parte della tua opinione è solo MARXISMO, dubito completamente che i musicisti karnatik vorrebbero mescolare la loro cultura musicale con qualsiasi altro stile perché in questo modo la cultura musicale karnatik può perdere, semplicemente, ma tu sei europeo non è raro che tu voglia mixare ed eliminare il tuo proprio culturel musicale, il MARXISMO è la cosa quotidiana in Europa, non riesco a immaginare Vivaldi che usa sitar e bansuri nel suo lavoro, o Haendel che usa i gamaka nei suoi cori di Halelullah, non essere scemo, l'eredità musicale europea e l'eredità della musica indiana vanno bene proprio come lo è, i gamaka sono straordinari nel loro stile, anche i cori europei, se pensi che questo mix possa funzionare prima prova a mescolare un pesce con un pollo, se può essere carino forse anche questi due stili possono essere carini
It's more like an exercise. You have to practice it, only a few with natural talent can sing that, all the rest are specifically trained to do that. Like the women in the video, she's a trained singer.
4:08 absolutely blows my mind.... I have NO idea how to switch back and forth between pitches so fast, she does it so effortlessly (or at least it sounds effortless!). Amazing. I can't stop replaying it
that’s because it is autotune. her voice sounds robotic is some places, which is a clear marker of pitch correction/autotune. i’m not saying she wasn’t using the technique but this isn’t what this type of singing sounds like live.
It exists in middle-eastern music too, called "koma". There are 9 middle notes in between two notes. Like western music has accidentals. It's usually the performers' consideration to how perform komas to achieve a natural sound and results are pretty similar to gomakas described in the video. Mostly oud and clarinet players like to use komas as these instruments allow them to do more with it.
I think the closest thing western music has is traditional irish music, which has “trills” of two notes in between the melodic notes for embellishment-really cool to hear how different middle eastern and south asian music is from what I’m used to hearing
I love all kinds of music, but it's only Indian singing that makes me reflexively close my eyes and sway... it's like someone pulling my heart strings when I hear those slides.
I guess the western equivalent to gamaka is ornemantation. The first one is similar to a glissando, slide or bend. Second one is similar to a trill or mordent. Third one is similar to an accent on the second note
Yasmin Devan yeah the only thing is Gamaka singers really utilize semitones and for some reason have found a way to really showcase the notes in between the half steps
Um. Hindustani and Carnatic singing is SO MUCH more complex than Western singing (says this classically trained Western singer). See my note to Panicking Shmuley.
Cameo Shadowness true! It could be seen as a syncopation. But most syncopations also tend to be more varied then just one accent on a second beat. I think both interpretations are correct, it is either a simple syncopation or an accent on the second beat.
As a western musician, I've been fascinated with the melodic delivery of both north and south Indian music for decades. I learned a number of ragas but could tell very quickly that there's much more to it. I'm really excited to have discovered your channel. Subscribed!
Over Wonce they didn’t even try to hide the auto tune in this video, it does not sound like this without auto tune (of course it sounds good, but there’s clearly tons of auto tune used in this video)
I’ve always been in awe of the fluidity it takes to be able to do this and not skate on the edge of being flat or sharp. It’s almost a hypnotic sound. Also, reducing the video speed helped immensely in understanding what exactly was going on with what I’d normally call a “run.”
Indian Classical Music has amazing Melodic Ornamentation. Runs certainly are one of them, but it's the 'CONTINUOUS or UNBROKEN TRANSITION' from one note to another that makes Indian Classical Unique. Eastern cultures, in general, tend to have such continuity, but Indian Classical has explored it the most. This just makes music more diverse. We all need to learn from each other and take music forward !
Something about this music touches the heart and i find the voice spontaneously singing/chanting in ways the mind does not even intellectually understand. Yet here I am, dancing. Then, I stumble upon videos like these - they help Thank you, haribol
@MahaVakyas it's one thing to praise your own culture and another to degrade another culture. I agree that our Indian culture is amazing, I don't think we have to degrade western culture to show that though!
I love at 2:48, the animators didn't even attempt to follow the changes with a line graph, absolutely stunning singing and learning experience. Thank you!
@@beautyandthesavage These are composed by Raveendran master, you can search for his other works too. Most of his work are sung by legendary singer Yesudas sir and Chithra mam.
i was trying for ages to figure out what it was called, i watch bollywood movies and love hindustani classical and i’ve always wondered what the true term for it was. man, indian culture is incredible. namaskaaram from houston texas
Singing scales this way instead of the Western way like I was taught has finally given me control over smooth transitions from chest voice to head voice. I've been playing with overtones and subharmonics for about 2 years but this method of singing has really brought all of my ranges together. Thank you for sharing this with us!
Actually, continuity is fundamental in Indian Classical Music. It really decorates Melodies in a spectacular fashion, which has not been explored in the West, simply because it's not Western. Also, Singing becomes much easier, because you get a very good control over your voice ...
I love the way Gamakas sounds, It's so beautiful 😭❤ I'm from New Zealand, and I would absolutely love to go to a festival where their people are dancing in their colourful and wonderful cultural outfits and this kind of music is playing. I love it!
I wish I could place sub-titles on some amazing Indian movies that use these concepts for their movies. It’s learning through entertainment. Btw, none of them are Bollywood movies though. Lol. They are just annoying. You should learn Telugu or Kannadam if you can. That’s the gateway to all these forms of music.
One of the most clear and beautiful voices I've ever heard! As an American I've always loved Carnatic music and the singing style. I've never seen the technique of Carnatic vocals and embellishments explained. In America they call this "runs." Thank you for sharing. 💖
Before one works on slides, it's good to master the more basic aspects. All things in their order with any kind of singing. Even instrumentally, learning the plain melody of a song comes before augmenting it with flourishes.
Excellent video! I have wondered about the unique style of Indian singing and now I know. The more I learn about the culture of India and its people the more and more impressed I become. Warm regards from the U.S.A.!
Ummm.....might be because we share the same roots. The serbians and indians share the same indo-aryan and indo-european linguistic, culture and belief system, i suppose

I LOVE this. It's so refreshing hearing about music theory that isn't so... western-centric.
It exists in middle-eastern music too, called "koma". There are 9 middle notes in between two notes. Like western music has accidentals. It's usually the performers' consideration to how perform komas to achieve a natural sound and results are pretty similar to gomakas described in the video. Mostly oud and clarinet players like to use komas as these instruments allow them to do more with it.
Thanks for this extra info :)
Thank you so much I wish to learn about this immediately!
I think the closest thing western music has is traditional irish music, which has “trills” of two notes in between the melodic notes for embellishment-really cool to hear how different middle eastern and south asian music is from what I’m used to hearing
This is the one Shakira uses.
Makes sense considering the middle easts history with india
I love all kinds of music, but it's only Indian singing that makes me reflexively close my eyes and sway... it's like someone pulling my heart strings when I hear those slides.

HOW?!?!?! HOWWWWW!!! SHE IS SO GOOD! HOW IS SHE SINGING SO CLEAR
Practice of one note for 4 hours for 2 years that's basic
I guess the western equivalent to gamaka is ornemantation. The first one is similar to a glissando, slide or bend. Second one is similar to a trill or mordent. Third one is similar to an accent on the second note
Yasmin Devan yeah the only thing is Gamaka singers really utilize semitones and for some reason have found a way to really showcase the notes in between the half steps
@@iliveinabog3254 Those use of semitones are soooo beautiful.
Um. Hindustani and Carnatic singing is SO MUCH more complex than Western singing (says this classically trained Western singer). See my note to Panicking Shmuley.
Accent on the second note is known as syncopation. Might have spelt it wrong but that is the over all term for accent on a weak beat.
Cameo Shadowness true! It could be seen as a syncopation. But most syncopations also tend to be more varied then just one accent on a second beat. I think both interpretations are correct, it is either a simple syncopation or an accent on the second beat.
I am a black Latina lady and I LOVE this woman. Her voice is amazing.
Hi fellow Latina!! 💖💖
Id understand the reason of Adding"Black"huh?
@@anonymousguy329 what do you mean by that? they’re just saying.
What means that? XD "Black latina Lady" you need claps?
As a western musician, I've been fascinated with the melodic delivery of both north and south Indian music for decades. I learned a number of ragas but could tell very quickly that there's much more to it. I'm really excited to have discovered your channel. Subscribed!
This not just a music, never known that music can be Soo deep and wide, it's like the sea

* *autotune has left the chat* *
TRUE 😂😂😂😂
I was wondering why it sounded so good
Over Wonce they didn’t even try to hide the auto tune in this video, it does not sound like this without auto tune (of course it sounds good, but there’s clearly tons of auto tune used in this video)
@Over Wonce to automatically tune the notes. Lol. Next question.
@@e.hhampsen4508 good thing it was a joke.
Her Voice sounds like if she was playing an instrument, so good
Still she is average.....many great carnatic, hindustani singers are way ahead chitra, shreya goshal
I’m blown away at her vocal control. This has always blown my mind. I’m glad to have it explained
th-cam.com/video/f4NwRo12-70/w-d-xo.html
I’ve always been in awe of the fluidity it takes to be able to do this and not skate on the edge of being flat or sharp. It’s almost a hypnotic sound.
Also, reducing the video speed helped immensely in understanding what exactly was going on with what I’d normally call a “run.”
Me too 😍
A run is more of a mariah carey rnb ornementation thing, this is how the lyrics are sung, runs also glide less and in and from less directions
Indian Classical Music has amazing Melodic Ornamentation. Runs certainly are one of them, but it's the 'CONTINUOUS or UNBROKEN TRANSITION' from one note to another that makes Indian Classical Unique. Eastern cultures, in general, tend to have such continuity, but Indian Classical has explored it the most. This just makes music more diverse. We all need to learn from each other and take music forward !
Dear Sister,
Congratulations.
Your way of teaching is able to understand easily. May God bless you all ur efforts.
Thank you.
Exactly.. I love her videos..
Yes correct.....it is easy to follow

Something about this music touches the heart and i find the voice spontaneously singing/chanting in ways the mind does not even intellectually understand. Yet here I am, dancing. Then, I stumble upon videos like these - they help
Thank you, haribol
Friends I found the best website that will help you to learn singing
that is LearnSinging55.blogspot.com
Hope this will help…

@MahaVakyas it's one thing to praise your own culture and another to degrade another culture. I agree that our Indian culture is amazing, I don't think we have to degrade western culture to show that though!
@MahaVakyas dude shut the fck up....you are a disgrace to all hindus
I love at 2:48, the animators didn't even attempt to follow the changes with a line graph, absolutely stunning singing and learning experience.
Thank you!
This is the most beautiful and magical thing I've seen today. Wow.
Then try these songs based on classical Carnatic music:
Pramadavanam Veendum
Devasabhathalam
If you need more just ask.
@@0arjun077 wowww! you've blessed this evening. These are beautiful!!!
@@beautyandthesavage These are composed by Raveendran master, you can search for his other works too. Most of his work are sung by legendary singer Yesudas sir and Chithra mam.

It's a shame these concepts aren't taught in schools. Truly amazing techniques that really show how much an instrument the voice is!

I had no idea what a Gamaka was. The instant that you demonstrated it my heart sang. Thank you for sharing, my friend!
"My heart sang" omg yes! That is exactly how this made me feel.
I had no interest in Indian music until TH-cam recommended this video to me but now I’m mesmerized

Singing scales this way instead of the Western way like I was taught has finally given me control over smooth transitions from chest voice to head voice. I've been playing with overtones and subharmonics for about 2 years but this method of singing has really brought all of my ranges together. Thank you for sharing this with us!
Actually, continuity is fundamental in Indian Classical Music. It really decorates Melodies in a spectacular fashion, which has not been explored in the West, simply because it's not Western. Also, Singing becomes much easier, because you get a very good control over your voice ...
I love the way Gamakas sounds, It's so beautiful 😭❤ I'm from New Zealand, and I would absolutely love to go to a festival where their people are dancing in their colourful and wonderful cultural outfits and this kind of music is playing. I love it!
J. Kahu I'm from zeta retculi
Go to your local hare krishna temple..
I wish I could place sub-titles on some amazing Indian movies that use these concepts for their movies. It’s learning through entertainment. Btw, none of them are Bollywood movies though. Lol. They are just annoying. You should learn Telugu or Kannadam if you can. That’s the gateway to all these forms of music.
@@TabeerAli pls Ghazals are not the same. The discussion is about something different here. You can promote your videos on a different discussion.
Yes... You can watch the performance of dancer shobana or sharada nrthiyalaya students......
I absolutely adore Indian music simply because of the gamakas. It's just so beautiful how fluid the notes feel.
I will probably never sing indian music but I watch this video at least once a week because her voice is so enchanting
OMG your voice when you sing the Khamas raga arohanam with gamakam
Thank god we have Indian music, I was getting tired of the western system.
Thank you for this crystal clear lesson

@Joel Roy I mean drip report is pakistani but hey the songs are still a banger.
One of the most clear and beautiful voices I've ever heard! As an American I've always loved Carnatic music and the singing style. I've never seen the technique of Carnatic vocals and embellishments explained. In America they call this "runs." Thank you for sharing. 💖
I'm so glad I can put a name to this unique and beautiful technique. Indian vocals are the most mesmerising things. 💕

It is nice to know the name of the sound that always get my attention in classic indian songs.
Your voice is so cool.And,when u sing ,it sounds divine!
p g true
It’s pre recorded but still good
No. It's not. She sang it live ...
Indian music is definitely different from the rest of the world. Now I know what gives it that beautiful traditional melodic sound.
I 'member getting in trouble with my music teachers when I'd slide :( I wish I could have showed them this vid, but that was 3rd grade
Before one works on slides, it's good to master the more basic aspects. All things in their order with any kind of singing. Even instrumentally, learning the plain melody of a song comes before augmenting it with flourishes.
Friends I am learning advance level singing at

That first time she adds a gamaka it's like straight up Bollywood. I've never had it broken down and explained so well. Very interesting.
No south indian
Bollywood is persian version
@@kitchens222 what😂

This came up on recommendation and I am so glad it did. I always have love traditional Indian music. It's beautiful.
i always thought those vibrations and gamakas were autotune added into the vocals, but it's not and it's even more impressive to think about!!
Excellent video! I have wondered about the unique style of Indian singing and now I know. The more I learn about the culture of India and its people the more and more impressed I become. Warm regards from the U.S.A.!
Wow this is pretty similar to singing in Serbian folk music. Cool to see us connected through music. 🥰
Ummm.....might be because we share the same roots. The serbians and indians share the same indo-aryan and indo-european linguistic, culture and belief system, i suppose
I've always been so curious as to how Indian music sounds so beautiful. I'm very happy I've found this video.
Not even Indian but I love this style, it’s so beautiful
Sliding and Gamakam, it's all in this Hindi film song : th-cam.com/video/haMty33VXjQ/w-d-xo.html
I wish I met u 20 years ago. U are perfect for my style of singing. I sing Spanish English and sometimes hindi. I love these different styles of gamakas.. My heart is happy with ur chanel
Indian culture... Food.... Songs are so beautiful ... Its so hard to not fall in love with indian culture ~
Amazing ancient Architecture and numerous languages which we invented are also great
Woah. This is so much more organized than I ever thought it was just from listening. Thanks for a great video!
