Raga Yaman is known to be the first raga taught to students of Indian classical music. This is why I choose to make a book that is on this specific raga. The masters that teach feel that the knowledge of raga Yaman will help one understand all the other ragas. This is a book that is focused on raga Yaman and includes most of the tals of Indian classical music that pertains to Khayal, Dhrupad, and light music. This book's main focus is showing one how to practice correctly with a raga. All the important aspects of Yaman are expressed and shared within this book. All the alankars / paltas / sargam exercises, songs, and merukhand are written for raga Yaman only. To practice correctly, one must practice with a rhythm cycle (taal). Indian classical music in it's entirety is the expression of raga & tala together. This is why the importance of tals are taught and shared within this book. This book is for the vocalists and instrumentalist of the string and wind categories. All my other books are thaat based. "The ultimate book of sargam patterns" & "The Ultimate riyaaz book series Vol.1-4"
