Read the following passage carefully and answer the following questions on the basis of your understanding of the text :

     From the very beginning Avanaddha Vadyas had an important place in Indian music. In Natyashashtra by Bharat, the description of Tripushkar, a highly developed Avanaddha Vadya explains that such Anga Vadyas were popular even two thousand years ago. In fact, Avanaddha Vadyas had two clear categories – Angā Vādyās and Pratyanga Vadyās.

     The instruments on which the desired notes were obtained with the help of ‘Lepan’ on their face were called ‘Anga Vadyas’, while the instruments which could not be tuned to the desired notes were called ‘Pratyang Vadyas’.

     The Avanaddha Vadyas were used only for accompaniment. Gradually, a complete and beautiful Avanaddha Vadya named ‘Tablā’ came into picture and then became popular, and later, along with the accompaniment, the tradition of solo Tablā playing started.

     With the amalgamation of different playing techniques, compositions of syllables in different manners, use of Layakari, special composition types and way of presentation; six unique Gharānās of solo Tablā playing came into existence.

     Delhi Gharana focussed on compositions of Chatasra Jāti, playing mainly on Chant (Kinār) and emphasis on use of two fingers (i.e. Index and middle), while two disciples of the same Gharānā enriched Tablā playing by using the ring finger along with Index and middle and by making compositions of Tisra Jāti, which resulted into the emergence of Ajarada Gharanā.

     The maestros of Lucknow Gharana created a new flavour with their resonant and forceful technique of Tabla playing. Ustad Hazi Vilayat Ali of Farrukhabad Gharana, with his extra ordinary skills, composed many beautiful ‘Gata’s, although he was trained by the famous Tabla maestro of Lucknow, Ustad Bakhshoo Khan.

     The founder of Benaras Gharana, Pandit Ram Sahay too was the disciple of Ustad Modu Khan of Lucknow Gharana, while Punjab Gharana was popularised by Ustad Qadir Bhakhsh (Second) and his disciples viz. Ustad Allarakha Khan and Ustad Shauqat Hussain etc.

     Presently, the instrument ‘Tabla’ is a necessary part of music and placed on top by virtue of it’s popularity of solo playing and as an accompanying instrument with classical, semi classical, light music and filmy music.
