Campaka Savari is an eleven matra beat that is played on the tabla. Although not a very common tala, it is played in slow tempos during occasional kheyal performances. One fascinating feature is the use of fractional divisions. The ending of the savari family of talas will have such fractional endings as shown from the beginning of matras 9½ to the end of the cycle
