Nandu Kulkarni explains the nuances of the Jhaptaal in Indian Music. Understanding Taal is an important step in the appreciation of Hindustani Music. This recognition brings a certain sense of joy. Following the taal, you can appreciate the beauty of the composition and the peak emotion brought along by the 'Sam'. Jhaptaal is a 10 beat taal that is divided into two main parts - the Bhari (first five beats) and the Khali (last five beats)
