Teen Tals

Teentaal is in16 matra-s (beats) divided into
4+4+4+4.
The most famous teentaal theka (main
cycle) is:
Dha Dhin Dhin Dha
Dha Dhin Dhin Dha
Na Tin Tin Na
Ta Dhin Dhin Dha
Now I give some teentaal kaida-s. I should
mention that kaida is derived from the
Arabic-Persian name Ghaedeh that literally
means rule.
Teentaal Kaida No. 1 from [D]:
Dha Dha Te Te Dha Dha Tu Na
Ta Ta Te Te Dha Dha Dhin Na
Now I give some kaida-s similar to the
teentaal kaida No. 1. I have composed them
some years ago, but it is very natural that
some other people have composed the same
or similar kaida-s.
Dha Te Te Tu Na Dhe Dhe Na Dha Dha Te Te

Teentaal Kaida No. 2 from [D]:
Dha Te Te Dha Te Te Dha Dha Te Te Dha Ga
Tu Na Ke Na
Ta Te Te Ta Te Te Ta Ta Te Te Dha Ga Dhi
Na Ge Na
This is a very famous kaida and there are
lots of different variations. So it is better to
refer to the books and I give only two similar
kaida-s.
Te Te Dha Te Te Dha Te Te Te Te Dha Ga Tu
Na Ke Na
Te Te Ta Te Te Ta Te Te Te Te Dha Ga Dhi
Na Ge Na
Dha Te Te Te Te Dha Te Te Te Te Dha Ga Tu
Na Ke Na
Ta Te Te Te Te Ta Te Te Te Te Dha Ga Dhi
Na Ge Na
In this kaida I have not used the same
phrases such as Dha Te Te & Dha Dha Te Te
but structurally it is similar to the kaida No.
2.
Dha Ge Na Dha Ge Na Dha Ge Na Na Dha Ga
Tu Na Ke Na
Ta Ke Na Ta Ke Na Ta Ke Na Na Dha Ga Dhi
Na Ge Na
Similar to kaida No. 2 it is possible to
compose lots of different variations. But I
only give one:
Dha Ge Na Dha Ge Na Dha -- Dha Ge Na Dha
Ge Na Dha --
Dha Ge Na Dha Ge Na Dha Ge Na Na Dha Ga
Tu Na Ke Na
Ta Ke Na Ta Ke Na Ta -- Ta Ke Na Ta Ke Na
Ta --
Dha Ge Na Dha Ge Na Dha Ge Na Na Dha Ga
Dhi Na Ge Na
Teentaal Kaida No. 3 from [D]:
"Ustad Habibuddin Khan had two styles,
which is easy to understand because his
father, Shammu Khan of Ajrara School, with
whom he started learning, died only four
years after his institution. As a result, he
continued his studies with Natthu Khan of
the Delhi School. For example he played a
kaida, from Delhi, which goes as follows:
Dha Ge Na Te Te Dha Ge Na Te Te Dha Ga
Tu Na Ke Na
Ta Ke Na Te Te Ta Ke Na Te Te Dha Ga Dhi
Na Ge Na"
I give some kaida-s similar to kaida No. 3,
which I have composed them some years
ago. Again I emphasize that it is quite
natural that the same or similar kaida-s have
been composed by other people.

Teentaal Kaida No. 4:
Dha Ge Na Dha Ti Dha Ge Na Dha Ti Dha Ga
Tu Na Ke Na
Ta Ke Na Ta Ti Ta Ke Na Ta Ti Dha Ga Dhi
Na Ge Na
Ending a teentaal kaida with the phrases
"Dha Ti Dha Ga Tu Na Ke Na" and similarly
"Ta Ti Dha Ga Dhi Na Ge Na" is so popular in
Indian tabla solo recitals.
Here I give some samples:
Dha Ge Na Na Ti Dha Ge Na Dha Ti Dha Ga
Tu Na Ke Na
Ta Ke Na Na Ti Ta Ke Na Dha Ti Dha Ga Dhi
Na Ge Na
Ka Ta Dha Ti Dha Ge Na Na Dha Ti Dha Ga

Teentaal Kaida No. 7:

Ta Ta Te Te Ta Ke Na Ta TeRe KeTe Ta Ke

Now I give some teentaal kaida-s ending
with the phrases "Dha Ge Na Tu Na Ke Na"
and similarly "Dha Ge Na Dhi Na Ge Na".
Teentaal Kaida No. 8:
Ka Ta Dha Ti Dha Ge Na Dha Ti Dha Ge Na

Teentaal Tihai-s:
Tihai indicates the end of a composition.
Tihai is the figure at the end of an
elaborated or fixed composition, which
begins on any matra in the given taal and,
after being played three times, ends on sam
(the first matra of a taal).
Repeating three times a phrase in 11 beats
can be a tihai for teentaal, because (3)
(11)=33=(2)(16)+1 and the 33rd beat of the
composition will be the first beat (sam) of
the third cycle of the composition in
teentaal.
Now I give some examples of teentaal tihai-
s.
Teentaal Tihai No. 1:
