The Department of Music was established at the Central University of Tamil Nadu, Thiruvarur in the year 2016-17, which happened to be the 250th birth anniversary of Sri Tyagaraja, one of the Trinity of Music. A National seminar on the “Contribution of Trinity to Karnataka music” was organised in February 2018. The event attracted several scholars, musicians, dancers and music lovers from many parts of India with Research presentations and Music performance. The whole process of the conduct of seminar was executed online. With pride and humility, I feel delighted to place before you, the first publication from the Department of Music, Central University of Tamil Nadu. Research papers were presented at the Seminar and the abstracts of papers were released online, which is available at https://cutn.ac.in/ctkm2018/. This book is a compilation of 43 full length papers by several young and aspiring scholars of music and dance who enthusiastically participated in the seminar. Most of the papers are in English, while two are in Telugu and one in Tamil. The papers were sent for peer review to duly constituted team of experts and their suggestions were incorporated. Many papers were highly commendable and reflected a serious research writing and a few were maiden attempts by students and scholars that required more expertise. In order to encourage young and upcoming scholars, it has been decided to include all the papers, in this volume. I owe my sincere gratitude to the Honourable Vice Chancellor of CUTN, Prof. A P Dash, Registrar, Dr. S Bhuvaneswari and all statutory officers, for the encouragement and appreciation throughout and making this publication possible.
