The Concept Of Tala In Semi-Classical Music, Peter L. Manuel Dec 1983

The Concept Of Tala In Semi-Classical Music, Peter L. Manuel

Publications and Research

This article explores certain rhythmic features distinctive of the concept of tal in North Indian light-classical music, especially thumri. Particularly salient is the way that ambiguity of beat counts in tals called dipchandi, addha, and jat reflect how these tals are traditionally conceived in terms of drum strokes (dha dhin dha dha dhin etc.) instead of beat counts, which are in fact variable. Published in: National Centre for the Performing Arts: Quarterly Journal (Bombay) 12(4), December 1983. pp. 7-14.

Radhagovind Sangitsar Of Maharaja Pratap Singh, Peter L. Manuel Dec 1799

Radhagovind Sangitsar Of Maharaja Pratap Singh, Peter L. Manuel

Publications and Research

The Radhagovind Sangitsār (or simply Sangitsār) completed in Jaipur around 1800, is a significant musical treatise regarding North Indian classical music. Its special importance lies in its status as one of the very few writings on Hindustani music in the nearly two centuries between the 16th-17th Sanskrit and Persian texts and the early modern writings commencing in the decades around 1900. In the interests of disseminating it to interested students and scholars I have digitized chapter seven, on rāga, which is the chapter that has proved to be of most use and interest to musicologists.
