Correct Option: a)
The 35-Tala system of Carnatic music is built upon seven foundational primary Talas known as the Suladi Sapta Talas, arranged in a universally accepted traditional order.
Information Booster:
· Dhruva Tala “C”: Structured as Laghu-Dhruta-Laghu-Laghu “IOII”
· Mathya Tala “B”: Structured as Laghu-Dhruta-Laghu “IOI”
· Rupaka Tala: Structured as Dhruta-Laghu “OI”
· Jhampa Tala: Structured as Laghu-Anudhruta-Dhruta “IUO”
· Triputa Tala “E”: Structured as Laghu-Dhruta-Dhruta “IOO”
· Ata Tala “A”: Structured as Laghu-Laghu-Dhruta-Dhruta “IIOO”
· Eka Tala “D”: Structured as Laghu “I”
Additional Knowledge:
· Standard mnemonic phrase to memorize the order: Dhru-Ma-Ru-Jham-Tri-Ata-Eka.
· Each of these 7 Talas can adopt 5 different Jatis (Tisra, Chatusra, Khanda, Misra, Sankeerna), yielding 7 x 5 = 35 distinct Tala varieties.
