The Nottuswarams are a set of compositions in Carnatic music by Muthuswami Dikshitar in Shankarabharanam ragam. They are a fusion of old Western C lassical tunes with the tradition and richness of Carnatic music. Composed in without typical Carnatic gamakams , these compositions sound more like the Western Major Scale. Since these are much simpler to learn, it encourages children/beginners to learn Carnatic music with fun.
