u/Brief-Opportunity-20

I have written this exam twice now and i have not come across one proper channel or a person who is actively guiding on youtube, i have tried self study with the help of notes , books and music archives but I haven't been able to pass this exam. I have done well in the general paper ( self taught it ) even the common music part but not the main paper 2.... There are always questions that jump over me... The margin gets bigger due to this and I'm targeting the ones where they ask about compositions and authors.

Lately this entire section has been so unapproachable, it scares me at this point. I've tried preparing for these questions by listening , remembering making notes and memos but the list is neverending , there is no syllabus for these...making it nearly impossible to crack. If anyone has figured a way out PLEASE let me know Edit: im asking for jrf...not for only phd

ive never really had a proper learning of music for vocal i just picked it up as an aid for violin, later i went to college and have completed my ug and pg in vocal but throughout i never really had a single teacher or guru to have a private learning with, now i am at a point where i feel i should have one , might be late but whatever i have been learning is purely out of my college gurus and practice ( to whatever extent i sing ) it would be really helpful for me to get some advice and guidance.I do not have a preference over carnatic or hindustani. Namaste.

At the extent of your cheek,

I live here.

Like the record of a gramophone,

I nestle here.

Like the reel to a cassette,

I function here.

Like a compliment to a dress,

I am adorned here.

Like the locks that frame your face,

I am perched here.

Like a melody upon your lips,

I hear it here.

Like a chord held so dear,

I lend you my ear here.

How not to write content?!

First things first grab a ladleHold it at the neck and start tapping away on your empty head perhaps something resonated?...

Just like how we make water with hydrogen and oxygen we can write content by writing words and sentences, which definitely depends on cosmic alignment.

Now grab your helmet gwt on the bike nad go to rhe nearest market to buy blinds, the kind you dont put on the windows but your eyes, along with that get a pastry of assorted variety and go back home.

Once you have reached , chnage into comfortable clothes, grab a spoon and sit on the recliner, eat those pastries.... Now that u are comfy and full

Now mull over what to write....

After you have piddled around,

Get the mask you bought earlier , put it on and take a nap, to refresh and think about the content.
