About
Indian Classical
Indian classical music is a rich tradition that originated in South Asia and can now be found in all corners of the world. Its origins date back to sacred Vedic scriptures over 6,000 years ago where chants developed a system of musical notes and rhythmic cycles.
In this way, Indian classical music is very closely connected to nature, taking inspiration from natural phenomena including the seasons and times of the day to create 'ragas' or musical moods and many time cycles or 'taals' that have been further codified.
Indian classical music is generally passed down in an oral tradition where the student would spend many years with their 'guru', developing a very special, spiritual bond, imbibing all aspects of the music along with philosophical and moral principles that shape them for life.
