Learn Carnatic Music with Free Lessons & Tips

Indian classical music is one of the many forms of art music that have their roots in particular regional cultures.Indian classical music has two foundational elements, raga and tala. The raga, based on a varied repertoire of swara (notes including microtones), forms the fabric of a deeply intricate melodic structure, while the tala measures the time cycle.The raga gives an artist a palette to build the melody from sounds, while the tala provides them with a creative framework for rhythmic improvisation using time

Music is not something to compare with. Every musical identity is different just like every human being is different from each other. A musical comparison is not possible. The music you like should be considered the best, but that doesn't mean other music formats are inferior. The vision of Indian music is that every song or composition is based on classical music. If you learn classical music, you can learn every format of music. For example, if you can read and write English, it means  you learnt English and grammer so that's why you understand th english very well. Similarly, Hindustani classical music is an abcd or grammar for every music.
