Hindustani Classical Events This Month in Los Angeles

About Hindustani Classical

Hindustani classical music originated in Northern India, emerging from ancient Vedic chants while incorporating significant Persian influences during the Mughal era. This sophisticated tradition relies on the raga for melodic structure and the tala for rhythmic cycles, typically featuring instruments like the sitar, sarod, tabla, and the continuous drone of the tanpura. Performances often follow a meditative trajectory, transitioning from a slow, improvisational alap to a high-tempo drut section, evoking specific emotional states known as rasas. While it shares roots with the Carnatic tradition of Southern India, Hindustani music is distinguished by its distinct emphasis on gradual melodic expansion and secular, court-influenced stylistic developments.
