Niraval, also spelled "neraval," is a key improvisational technique in Carnatic music where the artist creatively explores a specific line from a composition, typically from the anupallavi or charanam. The chosen line is elaborated melodically and rhythmically while preserving its lyrical integrity and meaning. The performer experiments with different melodic patterns and rhythmic variations, often aligning with the tala (rhythmic cycle) in increasingly complex ways. Niraval showcases the musician’s command over both raga and rhythm, blending imagination with discipline. It serves as a bridge between lyrical devotion and musical virtuosity, making it a profound and expressive component of a performance. read less
