Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Music of India These differences are reflected in the music of the North and of the South, though we must not commit the mistake of thinking of these as distinct types of music. There is one Indian music, though there are many ways of working it out; and these all group themselves under the Northern and Southern schools. Distinguished as the Northern or Hindustani school and the Southern or Carnatic school, both are yet based on the principles stated in the ancient Sanskrit treatises on music.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Indian Conceptions of Music The modern world needs Tone Poems born of the world-soul some expression of the Christ spirit, the spirit of love, which has yet to unite the peoples of the earth. There could be no higher ideal for the young musician, whether of East or of West, than to make of himself an instrument upon which that spirit might breathe. But since that artist alone is truly great who can submit himself to the preparatory labour which such an ideal must impose, let us remind ourselves that it is in the patient study of, and sympathy with, the little things in the arts of many nations, that we that will acquire the power whereby to strike fresh chords and free new melodies in the music of the future.

Download or read book The Music and Musical Instruments of Southern India and the Deccan Classic Reprint written by C. R. Day and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Music and Musical Instruments of Southern India and the Deccan Among the heterogeneous populations of India much material may be found that bears upon the history of melody. There is an Aryan strain probably as old as the Vedic Sanskrit, and a Persian which has in these latter days, and especially in Northern India, considerably modified the true Hindu. There are also echoes of an indigenous music which prevails among the hill tribes, remaining in the Indian music of to-day; but yet not so clearly heard that we can say we identify here or there a refrain of an original or pre-historic music, although we may unconsciously be very near it. In the present state of our knowledge it is impossible to affirm that a pentatonic, or system of five notes in the octave, is of greater antiquity than a heptatonic or seven-note system; or that a chromatic or half-tone scale preceded an enharmonic composed of quarter tones. All these varieties occur in our historic records, and if we argue from the analogies of speech, or consider the measurement of vibrating strings, it is no less plausible to decide for primitive narrow intervals than for primitive wide ones. In every province, go where we will, may be found some melodic or rhythmic habit or turn which it is possible to reckon as proper to it, having its peculiar scales or modes, its figures, rhythms, graces to mark its authenticity, but we may yet be far away from its origin, even as to locality. In the native music of Africa, so far as is known, there is much that maybe traced to Asiatic sources. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Music of Hindostan Classic Reprint written by A. H. Fox Strangways and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Music of Hindostan Hindostan is, technically, the Indus and Ganges basins; and it is with the music of that part of India that this book primarily deals. It contains reference also to the system of the Carnatic, though that has been more fully treated of in C. R. Day's Music of Southern India and the Deccan. The study of Indian music is of interest to all who care for song, and of special interest to those who have studied the early stages of song in mediaeval Europe or ancient Greece. For here is the living language of which in those we have only dead examples. It is hardly possible in the case of modern European Folk-song to study melody pure and simple, for we have no large body of such song of which we can certainly say that it was not influenced at all by the current conception of harmony. But here is melody absolutely un touched by harmony, which has developed through many centuries tendencies which have the force of laws; and the examination of these enables us to some extent to separate the respective contributions of melody and harmony to the final effect in our own music. Those to whom this aspect of the subject appeals are recommended after glancing at Chapters I and II to look at Chapters VI, VII, VIII, and XII. Others may be more interested in that technical side of the art which tabulates the facts of song, and their taste has been consulted iii Chapters IV and V; others, again, to whom the main charm of the music lies in the memories of India which it revives, may find more of what they would care to read in the Introduction and the first three chapters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Music We have as relates to the ancient music of India only much about theory, but this is suf cient to give us an idea of the immense com plication of their musical system. The tones of the diatonic scale which they seem to have known, but whose importance as basis of a musical system they did not appreciate, were divided into semi tones, and these in their turn into other semi tones, quarter-tones, and yet smaller divisions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Music of India This book has been written at the request of the Editors of The Heritage of India Series; and although it has grown beyond the possible limits of that Series and is now published by itself, it still remains, as it was originally planned, a brief introduction to a large and intricate subject. We believe that Indian Music possesses so much value for the life of the people of India that, in this great day of national aspiration and progress, it ought to be known and understood by every man and woman who has India's good at heart, so that it may become cultivated in every city and village throughout the land. The purpose of this book, then, is to provide sufficient information to make insight possible; so that the educated Indian, and also the European, may be stirred to such a living interest in Indian music, both vocal and instrumental, as to start musical societies and schools, and to seek for the wider and more detailed information which this book does not attempt to give.

It is almost impossible now to obtain' a printed copy of any early Tamil book that has not been systematically corrupted and mutilated, to meet the views of those whose livelihood depends on the rejection by the public of Dravidian literature and its acceptance of the Puranic legends.
