Haridāsas, the founders of the Karnatak musical pedagogy, dexterously weaved literature replete in cultural and spiritual values through rakhti ragas and simple rhythmical formats as Chapu talas, rich rhetoric embellishments, presenting them as folk music forms be to sung by layman in their day to day life thereby, reaching every nook and corner of different strata of the society, irrespective of the gender. Thus, they worked for the betterment of society. Their compositions stand as testimony of a good value system for all times. Revival of ancient musical forms such as Prabandha were ingeniously incorporated as various segments in music as Dāsarapada, Ugabhoga, Suladi, mundige etc. Thus, they ushered in new dimensions influencing later many Karnātak music composers.
Here is a beautiful workshop, where students can learn and explore a few of their masterpieces.
