Excerpts from Sangita Kalanidhi Shri Palghat Raghu's lecture / demonstration on Carnatic music, entitled "The Multifaceted Splendour of Misram", held at the Madras Music Academy in December of 2007. In this segment, Shri Raghu explains how a mridangam solo (thani avarthanam) must flow seamlessly as a part of a composition. The song Enthundi (Durbar, Misra Chapu) is presented in Part 1, along with a full thani avarthanam composed by Shri Raghu in Parts 2 and 3.

Performed by:
Abhishek Raghuram (vocal)
