The book deals with the rapid roll Mohras which are rendered before the final mukthayam is rendered in a tani avartanam. The book is monographic in bringing out the different aspects of construction of mohras and covers the mohras for the entire scope of Karnatic music, i.e., the suladi saptha talas. The mathematical aspects and the formulas are well brought out clearly and precisely. The author has done a lot of ground-work for the preparation of this book and I hope this knowledge will be used by many of the practicing and younger generation of percussionists to strengthen Karnatic music and the art of percussion. It was really a pleasure reading this book and whole heartedly recommend this scholarly book to both musicians and budding percussionists.
