Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pandit Amarnath was regarded as a musicians' musician and the foremost interpreter of the Indore Gharana. In this book, he demystifies the many terms associated with Hindustani classical music for the common man interested in this art form. From crucial terms such as avaart and kharaj bharna to musicological terminology like moorchhana and shrutee to short profiles of stalwarts in the field and telling musical 'proverbs' and sayings of the great masters, this is a pathfinder to the otherwise closed traditions of Hindustani classical music whose secrets and philosophies have been restricted to masters and connoisseurs. Pandit Amarnath reveals the terms in both their etymology as well as their implications in musical practice and listening. First published twenty-five years ago to great critical acclaim and now being updated by Rekha and Vishal Bhardwaj, this will be a must-read for music lovers and musicologists, musicians and students, linguists and historians alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique reference book on music incorporating terms and references from both the traditions in Indian classical musicýthe Carnatic and the Hindustani. The Penguin Book of Indian Classical Music, the first of its kind, provides definitions of musical terms and descriptions of the traditions and styles that constitute the rich musical heritage of India. From the primary enunciation of a raga as ýaaý, the unstructured, emotionally inspired musical rendering, to the Urdu term ýzamzamaý that refers to the back and forth movement of a note, the dictionary defines the A to Z in Indian classical music. Comparison between the two systems in terms of ragas and the use of notes is facilitated by cross-references. And Raghava Menonýs introduction provides a perceptive insight into what constitutes Indian classical music, both in emotive and technical terms. Complete with photographs of the major instruments used in the two traditions as well as those of some of the all-time great musicians in Indian classical music, the volume is intended to be a valuable reference book for the virtuoso and the lay person aspiring for a greater understanding of Indian music.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work aims to address the historical development of the great Indian raga tradition, enhanced by computational approaches, and to use computational strategies to analyze aspects of contemporary Hindustani classical music (HCM). It is divided into two parts with Part 1 focusing on the history and aesthetics of HCM and Part 2 covering its computational aspects. The historical development of HCM in the ancient, medieval and modern periods; its terms and genre; and its Khayal gharanas are covered in Part 1. The subtopics include essential concepts such as raga, tala, shruti, thaat, gharana, khayal, dhrupad, thumri, tappa, etc. Part 2 covers the state-of-the-art in computational musicology, raga analysis and song analysis using statistics. The subtopics include statistical modeling, inter onset interval, note duration analysis, pitch movement between the notes, rate of change of pitch (pitch velocity) and probabilistic analysis of musical notes. The author concludes the work with reflecting on the lives of a few renowned musicians and musicologists with an account of hilarious moments taken from their lives to excite the reader to know more about HCM. This book would be useful for musicians, musicologists, researchers in music history, aesthetics, computational musicology, and advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students of music and musicology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over thousands of years, Hindu palmists have observed special symbols located on the hands of people. They learnt that the combination of a few lines in the form of these symbols could add more depth to a palm reading than simply reading each line one at a time. In other words, the sum of a few lines on a hand could give a greater meaning than each line could all by itself. These combinations of lines were given names and entered mainstream palmistry in India through its shastras (ancient texts). This style of palmistry was mostly practiced by monks, hermits, and other holy people. Over the course of time, the people who could interpret these symbols became fewer and fewer until a large number of the symbols became lost over a period of time. This book attempts to save the remaining symbols that are still known for future generations of palmists. This is the first book of its kind to catalogue and record the symbols of palmistry that are used in India. It is a vital reference for beginner palmists and an essential skill for the experts alike.
