Hindustani and Carnatic: Two Branches of One Tree
Draft outline. Aishwarya will write this post; these are the points it will cover.
- Shared roots: raga, tala, the drone
- Hindustani (North): khayal, dhrupad, sitar, tabla, bansuri
- Carnatic (South): kriti, the Trinity of composers, veena, mridangam, violin
- How a concert unfolds in each
- Listening guide: three pieces to start with
