Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate world of Indian music, specifically the Hindustani school, aiming to bridge the gap between contemporary practice and ancient musical theory. The author embarks on a journey through time, exploring the evolution of Indian music from its golden age, possibly coinciding with the era of Kalidasa and Bharata, to its present form. The author argues that music serves as a profound reflection of the Indian soul, expressing its essence more completely than any other art form. Despite facing periods of neglect and misunderstanding, Indian music has endured, preserving its vitality through oral traditions and the dedication of master musicians. However, the influence of Western music and instruments, such as the harmonium, has posed challenges to the purity of Indian musical intonation. This book emphasizes the critical role of understanding intonation in appreciating the nuances of Indian music. The author introduces a scientific approach to analyzing musical scales and intervals, drawing upon the research of Mr. Deval and his 'sruti harmonium'. Through meticulous examination of ancient texts like the Natya Shastra and Sangit Ratnakar, the author sheds light on the historical foundations of Indian musical theory. By offering a comprehensive method for studying Indian musical intonation and advocating for the preservation of traditional practices, this book provides valuable insights for both Indian and Western musicians. The author's exploration of the depths of Indian music underscores its significance not only as a cultural treasure but also as a source of inspiration and artistic enrichment for the world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
