Hindu Music From Various Authors
Publisher Description
At the request of several European friends who take a lively interest in the Music of this country and would like to see it improved by the use of Harmony, I have ventured to publish the following pages with the object of acquainting them with the characteristic features of Hindu Music and of showing to what extent its spirit would admit of the application of Harmony thereto. How far have I been successful in giving a clear expression to my views regarding the question, I do not feel competent to say. But if a perusal of these pages enables any Musician to arrive at a definite conclusion on the subject, I shall deem myself amply rewarded.
