Description

Presenting a comprehensive overview of some major traditional Indian rhythms, this book adopts a novel visual approach towards representing these rhythms (for example, Tāḷa/Tāl) in a graphic, tabular ICT (Information Communication Technology) format. It offers insights into structural aspects of beauty in Indian rhythms, and covers examples from ancient to contemporary music, including folk, classical and popular film songs. The tabular informative approach used in this book may also be applied to the study of other forms of traditional music across the world, such as folk music of Eastern Europe and indigenous music from other parts of Asia, the Americas, Australia, and Africa.
