Soft cover. Etat : New. Music, whether classical, devotional, secular, folk, fusion, etc., is a form of expression, which words and actions alone cannot describe. Indian music is quite popular both in India and worldwide, as genres such as classical, folk, and modern fusion have gained immense attention and praise from music artists and laymen alike. This volume is dedicated to the study of Indian music from a musicological perspective. This book was initially published under The Heritage of India Series at the request of the said publisher s editors. It uses tables and covers the classifica-tion of Indian music based on north Indian and south Indian traditions along with the description of nomenclatures used in Indian musicology. It explains the history and origins of Indian music, usage of notations, scales, forms of ragas, and its characteristics. It discusses the compos-itions made by Indian musicians, and discussion on Indian and western music. The author, interestingly, also narrates the biographies of Indian musicians. This book is highly recommended for scholars and enthusi-asts interested in the history, forms, and nuances of Indian music. About the Author Herbert A.

Soft cover. Etat : New. The Music of India by Herbert A. Popley is a detailed exploration of the rich and diverse traditions of Indian classical and folk music. Written with both scholarly depth and a sense of cultural appreciation, the book examines the historical development, theoretical foundations, and spiritual significance of Indian music. Popley delves into the origins of Indian music, its connection with ancient texts like the Vedas, and its evolution into two primary traditions: Hindustani (North Indian) and Carnatic (South Indian). The book covers key elements such as ragas (melodic frameworks), talas (rhythmic cycles), and the spiritual role music plays in rituals and meditation.
