One Short and Two Long Korvai in Misra Gati

A short Korvai prepares the material for the long one to follow.

After 8 beats (16 handclaps), the second Korvai begins. The structure, expanding and then contracting leads a Mrdanga Yati ("drum-shaped") form.

After another 8 beats, the third Korvai begins.
It uses the material from the preperatory groove to create a complex structure.
The Mora is composed entirely of phrases of five ("ta di ki na thom").
This Korvai is played three times.
