Panchavadyam, a classic temple art, literally means an orchestra of five instruments. The orchestra includes four percussion instruments namely thimila, maddalam, ilathalam and edakka and a wind instrument, kombu. It has a pyramid-like rhythm structure with a constantly increasing tempo coupled with a proportional decrease in the number of beats in cycles.
