New Mansions For Music (eBook, ePUB)

Performance, Pedagogy and Criticism

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book looks at one of the most ancient classical musical traditions of India, the Karnatik music system. It also contributes to our understanding of the experience of modernity in India through the prism of music. The developments that influenced areas of classical music were pedagogy, performance conventions and music appreciation. In an immensely readable book with anecdotes and conversations with musicians, humorous visual representations, part caricature, part satirical, the author describes a rapidly changing society in early twentieth century Madras.
