Mr. Dheeraj Kumar Mohapatra

Abstract :

<p>&nbsp;The Geetagovinda, though directly can not be said as a scripture of music, it is undoubtedly an eternal treasure house, filled with valuable explanatious and analysis of music and is an unmatched asset of great thoughts and descriptions. Odissi music is sung through Raganga, Bhabanga and Natyanga Dhrubapadanga followed by Champu, Chhanda, Chautisa, Pallabi, Bhajan, Janana, and Gita Govinda, which are considered to be a part of the repertoire of Odissi or an allied act form of Odissi. The purity, sanctity and characteristic features of Odissi music have been enriched, refined and pervaded its horizon through Gitagovinda of Sri Jayadeva. We have the first evidence of Odissi music in an articulated and systematic form from the versifications of Gitagovinda. Sri The songs of Gitagovinda are set to talas (rhythems) such as Rupaka Nisarah Jati Astatala, &amp; ekatali, which are included in navatalas, commonly used in Odissi till to-day</p>
