Muslim music of India

As the Hindu dancers of India dominate, there exists a large Muslim population that plays a part in the rich diversity of India's music. While Hindu music revolves around dance mainly, Muslim music is founded on instrumental pieces, with dance and voice being secondary.

String instruments are the sitar, invented in the thirteenth century, its smaller version, called the sarod, and the sarangi. The sarangi is known as probably the most difficult on earth as its forty plus strings are held by the fingernails. Used may be the santoor also, a zither of Persian origin.

The shahnai may be the main wind instrument. That is much like an oboe. Bamboo flutes may also be played often. Percussion is dominated by the tabla, whose invention is related to the creator of the sitar.

The courts of the Mughals and Turks gave rise to the tradition of the ragas, melodic structures of between five and twelve notes, within which musicians improvise. They are defined and played based on the period and season and their suitability for a masculine or feminine audience.

Each raga includes several movements. Traditionally, each could have lasted hours, but modern attention spans have observed these being shortened. The ultimate movement, that is split into three sub-sections, introduces percussion in complex patterns of rhythm and sound.

Although instrumentals have already been a male area traditionally, with women contributing as vocalists, women are needs to venture in to the instrumental part of performances now.

Southern India's Carnatic music developed in Thanjavur and, althoughit follows the raga structure, it really is uses and livelier modified versions of the original instruments.

Major music festivals are held in New Delhi, Mumbai in Bombay, and Chernai in Madras. Gwalior's Tansen Festival is really a highlight every December. No stop by at India is complete without hearing a performance of the traditional musical form.
