RagaJazzMusic

At university we were required to investigate North Indian Classical Music for an assessment task. As a classical musician, I couldn't get my head around it. Many videos were available on you tube published by brilliant Indian musicians, who didn't explain things in a way that made sense to me. Then I stumbled across these videos. After watching them, I felt that I had a basic understanding of how Raga and Tala worked, and was able to start reading Academic writings and understanding what they were saying, and writing my essay. They were explained in a way that made sense to me as a western musician. I would recommend these lessons for anyone who wants to get a big picture idea about Indian Classical Music. I am sure the step by step exercises would also be very beneficial to work through for someone interested in learning to play Indian Music too.
