Indian Music Tradition
IDC Outreach Lecture II The Music Tradition in India India has a rich history of music beginning from the pre-historic times. The caves of Bhimabethaka and other archeological sites display activities related to music and dance from 25000 BCE to 10000 BCE. The earliest literary sources revealing glimpses of musical activities and knowledge of musicology occur in Ṛgveda and other Vedic texts which were composed between 10,000 BCE to 1500 BCE. The concept of stobha in Vedas is a pre-cursor of nÄda and ÄlÄpa. SÄmaveda gave the concept of svaras (musical notations) and pitch. In this lecture we present an overview of the Indian Tradition of Music in theory and practice along with its development till the medieval times.
