anupallavi
Anupallavi is a term used in Indian classical music, particularly in the context of Carnatic music. It refers to the second section of a kriti, which is a type of composition. The anupallavi typically follows the pallavi, the first section, and serves to expand on the themes introduced earlier.
In anupallavi, the melody often becomes more intricate, and the lyrics may delve deeper into the emotional or spiritual aspects of the composition. This section is crucial for showcasing the artist's improvisational skills and understanding of the raga, or melodic framework, being performed.
