Ragas of Northern Indian Music

Rating:
Summary: window on a world of music
Review: As someone brought up on western music and untrained in indian music, I was able to follow what the author was saying. This book is an important piece of the puzzle, in understanding the expressive power of music in gerneral and intonation in particular. Aspiring composers should check this book out. Probably best for instrumentalist with continuous control of pitch, (violinists trombonists etc.) and singers accustomed to singing against a drone.
