Answer to Question 1

 The mridangam continues to accompany the melody being played on the veena, playing rhythm patterns within the adi tala cycles that complement the rhythms of the melody.
18:00-21:30 The Drum Solo: Tani Avartanam

Answer to Question 2

The melody is made up of notes which are repeated many times. In the kalpana svaras (imagined notes) section of an instrumental performance, the musicians articulate or pluck each note.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
