Nineteenth century Madras led the way in the transformation that Karnatik music underwent as it encountered the forces of modernization and standardization. This study also contributes to our understanding of the experience of modernity in India through the prism of music. The role of Madras city as patron and custodian of the performing arts especially classical music offers an invaluable perspective on the larger processes of modernization in India.

Once the urban elite demanded the widening of the teaching of classical music traditional modes of music instruction underwent a major change involving a breakdown of the Gurushishya parampara or the tradition wherein the teacher imparted knowledge to a chosen few.
