Tarana is a type of composition in Hindustani classical vocal music in which certain words and syllables (e.g. “odani”, “todani”, “tadeem” and “yalali”) based on Persian and Arabic phonemes[1] are rendered at a medium (madhya laya) or fast (drut laya). It was invented by Amir Khusro (1253-1325 CE),[2] and is similar to the Qalbana form of Sufi poetry. In modern times, the tarana is most commonly associated with the singer Amir Khan, who helped popularize it and researched its origins and the syllables used. Nissar Hussain Khan was also well known for tarana singing. Tarana was also used by Sikh tenth Guru Gobind Singh in his compositions. read less

Is three years of age too early to get a kid start learning Carnatic music if the kid can quickly memorize and sing rhymes/slokas, considering the parents are not from a singing background?
Learning has no age! And it's best to start as early as possible! Kids are a blank canvas at an early age, and you can expose them to good values and direct them in a productive direction at that point!...
