This book shows the great similarity that exists between the Hindustani and Karnatak systems. Their source is the same, but, since the last seven hundred years, history and geography have made them emphasize differing aesthetical ideas. One system explores the beauty of flow, glides, ambiguity and shading. The other system delights in clarity, crispness, words and rhythm. Both these systems are true to their ancient origin and today there is increasing mutual awareness and appreciation between them. In the south, three great saint composers, called the Trinity, shaped the features of the Karnatak idiom. A fascination for mathematical calculation led Karnatak musicians to explore complex time divisions in rhythm. Their scientific temperament gave a viable classification theory for the plethora of ragas.
