Fill in the blanks: In Teen Taal of Hindustani Classical Music, the Khali is marked on the ____ matra.
9
Teen Taal is a 16-matra (beat) cycle divided into four vibhags of 4 beats each: 4 + 4 + 4 + 4.
The Sam (the first, emphasised beat) falls on matra 1, and the Khali (the 'empty' or un-emphasised beat, marked with a wave of the hand) falls on the 9th matra — the start of the third vibhag.
Hence, the answer is 9.
