Portada
Wesleyan University Press, 1971 - 222 pàgines
This book explores important features of Indian classical modes: the structure of melody, the effect of the drone, ornamentation and intonation, the function of accidentals and the perception of symmetries. These are related to a well-documented survey of the evolutionary processes that hae shaped the rags of today.
