Indian music, has it’s   origin in the Vedas, Sama Veda in particular. In fact the arts of music and dance are classified as ‘ Gandharva Veda ‘- the Veda of celestial musicians and singers. Shiva plays ‘Dhamaru’ (drums), Krishna  plays  'Venu’ (flute) and Saraswati the goddess of learning plays the ‘Veena’ (stringed instrument). These are the classical Indian musical instruments. Evolution and adoption have added several new types of instruments in all three categories of percussion, wind and string. Western instrument like the Violin has now become as much a part of Indian musical scene  as the Veena or Sitar.

Basically there are two systems of classical music, called

 Carnatic  and  Hindustani.

The Carnatic Sampradaya’ encompasses music written in Sanskrit and South Indian languages and has a history dating back to the Vedas.

The origins of Hindustani classical music called the North Indian style (Gharana) can be traced to the courts of the Persian and other Islamic rulers  of fourteenth century India.

The seven notes  (Sapta Swara) – Sa, Ri, Ga, Ma, Pa, Dha, Ni

 are common to both styles of music. Whereas these classical forms of music are for connoisseurs, there are other musical forms, of universal appeal. These are folk music, light classical music (Bhavageet  or  Sugama  sangeet) and film music. In terms of variety, volume, popular appeal,  and  number  of fans, film music is indeed phenomenal..

Historic perspective

 Vyasarayaru (A.D 1447-1539) the celebrated Vaishnava guru (Mathadhipati) at Udupi, whose disciples include, the most revered composer Purandara Dasa, is credited with taking Carnatic music to new heights of glory.

The honor of being recognized as the trinity of Carnatic music goes to Saint Thyagaraja (A.D 1759-1847), Shyama Shastri (A.D 1762-1827) and Muthuswamy Dikshitar (A.D 1775-1835). Between them they have composed over a thousand melodies (Krithis).
