Sangita-ratnakara by Sarangadeva About Archives January 2016 October 2015 September 2015 August 2015 July 2015 June 2015 May 2015 April 2015 February 2015 January 2014 December 2013 Sarangadeva’s Sangita-ratnakara (first half of 13th century) is of particular importance, because it was written November 2013 just before influence of the Muslim conquest began to assert itself on Indian culture. The Music discussed in Sangita-ratnakara is free from Persian influence. Sangita-ratnakara therefore marks the stage at which the October 2013 ‘integrated’ Music of India was before it branched into North-South Music traditions. October 2012 It is clear that by the time of Sarangadeva, the Music of India had moved far away from Marga or Gandharva, as September 2012 also from the system based on Jatis (class of melodies) and two parent scales. By his time, many new August 2012 conventions had entered into the main stream; and the concept of Ragas that had taken firm roots was wielding considerable authority. Sarangadeva brought together various strands of the past music traditions, defined almost 267 Ragas, established a sound theoretical basis for music and provided a model for the later Categories musicology (Samgita Shastra). Abhinavagupta (3) Sarangadeva’s emphasis was on the ever changing nature of music, the expanding role of regional (Desi) Agama (6) influences on it, and the increasing complexity of musical material that needed to be systemised time and again.

  • Formulas and the Building Blocks of Ṭhumrī Style—A Study in “Improvised” Music
    Formulas and the Building Blocks of Ṭhumrī Style—A Study in “Improvised” Music Chloe Zadeh PART I: IMPROVISATION, STRUCTURE AND FORMULAS IN NORTH INDIAN CLASSICAL MUSIC usicians, musicologists and teenage backpackers alike speak of “improvisation” in M modern-day Indian classical music.1 Musicians use the term to draw attention to differences between different portions of a performance, distinguishing between the “composition” of a particular performance (in vocal music, a short melody, setting a couple of lines of lyrics) and the rest of the performance, which involves musical material that is different in each performance and that musicians often claim to have made up on the spur of the moment.2 In their article “Improvisation in Iranian and Indian music,” Richard Widdess and Laudan Nooshin draw attention to modern-day Indian terminology which reflects a conceptual distinction between improvised and pre-composed sections of a performance (2006, 2–4). The concept of improvisation has also been central to Western imaginings of North Indian classical music in the twentieth century. John Napier has discussed the long history of Western descriptions of Indian music as “improvised” or “extemporized,” which he dates back to the work of Fox Strangways in 1914. He points out the importance the concept took on, for example, in the way in which Indian music was introduced to mainstream Western audiences in the 1960s; he notes that the belief that the performance of Indian music 1 I am very grateful to Richard Widdess and Peter Manuel for their comments on draft versions of this article. 2 The relationship between those parts of the performance that musicians label the “composition” and the rest of the performance is actually slightly more complicated than this; throughout, a performance of North Indian classical music is normally punctuated by a refrain, or mukhra, which is a part of the composition.
