  • Classification of Indian Musical Instruments with the General
    Classification of Indian Musical Instruments With the general background and perspective of the entire field of Indian Instrumental Music as explained in previous chapters, this study will now proceed towards a brief description of Indian Musical Instruments. Musical Instruments of all kinds and categories were invented by the exponents of the different times and places, but for the technical purposes a systematic-classification of these instruments was deemed necessary from the ancient time. The classification prevalent those days was formulated in India at least two thousands years ago. The first reference is in the Natyashastra of Bharata. He classified them as ‘Ghana Vadya’, ‘Avanaddha Vadya’, ‘Sushira Vadya’ and ‘Tata Vadya’.1 Bharata used word ‘Atodhya Vadya’ for musical instruments. The term Atodhya is explained earlier than in Amarkosa and Bharata might have adopted it. References: Some references with respect to classification of Indian Musical Instruments are listed below: 1. Bharata refers Musical Instrument as ‘Atodhya Vadya’. Vishnudharmotta Purana describes Atodhya (Ch. XIX) of four types – Tata, Avnaddha, Ghana and Sushira. Later, the term ‘Vitata’ began to be used by some writers in place of Avnaddha. 2. According to Sangita Damodara, Tata Vadyas are favorite of the God, Sushira Vadyas favourite of the Gandharvas, whereas Avnaddha Vadyas of the Rakshasas, while Ghana Vadyas are played by Kinnars. 3. Bharata, Sarangdeva (Ch. VI) and others have classified the musical instruments under four heads: 1 Fundamentals of Indian Music, Dr. Swatantra Sharma , p-86 53 i. Tata (String Instruments) ii. Avanaddha (Instruments covered with membrane) iii. Sushira (Wind Instruments) iv. Ghana (Solid, or the Musical Instruments which are stuck against one another, such as Cymbals).

  • Indian Art,Culture & Heritage-Gktoday
    Civil Services Examination 2013 Conventional General Studies-39 www.gktoday.in Target 2013 Indian Culture- Comepndium of Basics 1 1. Religions Religion has been an important part of India’s culture throughout its history. Religious diversity and religious tolerance are both established in the country by law and custom. A vast majority of Indians (over 93%) associate themselves with a religion. Four of the world's major religious traditions; Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism are originated at India. These religions are also called as ‘Eastern Religions’. 1. Hinduism The word Hindu is derived from the Sanskrit name Sindhu for the Indus River. With around 1 billion followers, Hinduism is the third largest religion in the world after Christianity and Islam. Hinduism is considered as the oldest religion of the World originating around 5000 years ago. It is the predominant spiritual following of the Indian subcontinent, and one of its indigenous faiths. Hinduism is a conglomeration of distinct intellectual or philosophical points of view, rather than a rigid common set of beliefs. Hinduism was spread through parts of South-eastern Asia, China, Korea, and Japan. Hindus worship a god with different forms. Evolution The origin of Hinduism dates back to prehistoric times. Some of the important evidences of prehistoric times: • Mesolithic rock paintings depicting dances and rituals gives evidence attesting to prehistoric religion in the Indian "subcontinent". • Neolithic pastoralists inhabiting the Indus River Valley buried their dead in a manner suggestive of spiritual practices that incorporated notions of an afterlife and belief in magic. • Other Stone Age sites, such as the Bhimbetka rock shelters in central Madhya Pradesh and the Kupgal petroglyphs of eastern Karnataka, contain rock art portraying religious rites and evidence of possible ritualised music.

  • Tradition and Innovation in the Bānsurī Performance Style of Pannalal Ghosh
    Tradition and Innovation in the Bānsurī Performance Style of Pannalal Ghosh Carl Clements he twentieth century in India was a time of dramatic change, and Indian classical music T reflected this on many levels. Socio-economic transformations, the growth of mass media, independence from British rule, and many other factors contributed to a major restructuring of the Indian musical landscape. An important outcome was the introduction onto the classical stage of musical instruments not previously featured as prominent solo voices, such as bānsurī, sārangī, shahnāī, and santūr. Nonetheless, audiences retained a certain level of conservatism, and continued to demand that classical music remain firmly rooted in tradition. Thus, exponents of these instruments looked to established vocal and instrumental models of performance, while simultaneously creating styles suited to their particular instruments. The music of Pannalal Ghosh (1911–1960), who is generally credited with the popularization of the bamboo flute, or bānsurī, in modern Hindustani classical music, exemplifies this balance of tradition and originality. While the transverse flute had a long history in the music of India and had been revived in South Indian classical music in the late nineteenth century, there does not seem to have been any extant tradition of Hindustani classical bānsurī playing in the 1930s and 1940s when Ghosh was adapting the instrument for the North Indian classical stage. While he ultimately came to be affiliated with the Maihar gharānā, an important school of Hindustani classical musicians, through the teaching of its founder, Allauddin Khan, Ghosh drew from a variety of sources to create a style suitable for bānsurī.
