An excellent book on Hindustani music of North India. It delves into theory, taal, raag structure, and explains all aspects of the Indian music notation.
A very informative source.
Excellent content.
IThe book is easy to understand for beginners. Every chapter is exceptional and very inspirational.
Great book for beginners. Would be 5 stars if it had a CD of the exercises along with it.
This is a great book. Even though I am not a musician, I love Northern Indian Classical Music.
This is a must-have, not just for reference on your library shelf, but as a practical workbook - which simulates the first year's study at the famous Ali Akbar Khan college of music in California (as the title declares).What most appeals is the clarity of the editing by George Ruckert - himself a formidable performer, teacher and academic on the subject.
