Telangana families and communities preserving Bathukamma songs
Worth noticing
Contributors are asked to record the singer’s name, village, and consent before the song, then email the recording.

Field notes

The sample presents each verse as another ring of flowers and visually distinguishes the sung word from the response using tangedu-gold and gunugu-pink references. The contribution steps ask a recorder to capture the singer’s name, village, and consent before sending the file by email. The page describes its example as a preview rather than an elder recording.
