Kathakalipadam: Kathakali Songs
Kathakalipadams are songs sung in the Sopanam style of music and plays a significant role during performances of Kathakali, the resplendent classical dance form of Kerala. The story of Kathakali is conveyed through Kathakalipadams. The slow rhythmic pace with subtle variations in pitch is the noted feature of Kathakalipadams.
