Odissi dance is receiving growing recognition all over the world as an important classical dance system of India. Odissi music is a cognate of Odissi dance in every sense of the term. To use Odissi music as the accompanying music with an Odissi dance number or even to replace Odissi music with some other local variety in ones repertoire one must be acquainted with the genesis the cultural ethos and the technical subtleties associated with both Odissi dance and Odissi music. Ignorance of this leads to incongruous even ridiculous cross between Odissi dance and strange non Odissi music. Keeping this hazard in mind the book deals with the evolutionary history and the cultural background of Odissi music its use as a cognate of Odissi dance and as concert music (generally performed solo). Lastly there is a short comparative study of Odissi Hindustani and Carnatic music and discussion of the claim of Odissi music for classical status. The appendices contain a who's who of Odissi Gurus a list of some important research and training institutes maps and notations of some well known Odissi songs. 266 pp.

Hardbound. Condizione: As New. New. Contents Foreword. Introduction. 1. Hindu rituals in Kerala. 2. Kshetram the Hindu temple of Kerala. 3. Kshetram Vadyam the ritual music of the Kerala temples. 4. Chenda Melam and Panchavadyam the orchestral forms. 5. The solo ensembles Thayampaka Keli Kuzhal Pattu and Kombu Pattu. 6. Anusthan…avadyam the smaller ritualistic ensembles. 7. Musical instruments in Kshetram Vadyam. 8. The Kshetram musician and ritual expert communities. Conclusion and outlook. References. Glossary. Kshetram Vadyam discography. Appendix. Index. This study explores the relationship of the Hindu religious rituals to the percussion dominated music genres in the South Indian state Kerala. It is both an introduction to the ritual performances and to the musical styles. It takes up the quest to investigate how ritual meaning is expressed through music it illuminates aesthetic beauty and the relative independent importance of the musical styles within the ritual context. The study investigates how and why the temple music ensembles are dominated by the ubiquitous drums and bronze cymbals and based on a sophisticated rhythm structure rather than on melody. Extended fieldwork within the musician communities in Kerala enabled the author Rolf Killius to arrange this work from the viewpoint of the musicians. As there are thousands of hereditary professional temple musicians in the districts of Central Kerala this work is mainly based on the oral knowledge of these communities however the few academic accounts of scholars were considered. The musician's perspective identified and illustrated through text photographs and tables should unfold the diversity of this musical culture. Thus Indian and percussion music aficionados and scholars alike should benefit from this study. 136 pp.
