Indian classical music can be divided into two traditions - Hindustani from Northern India and Karnatic from Southern India. Both share similarities in using small ensembles, complex rhythmic systems called tala, and melodic scales called ragas. The main differences are the Hindustani tradition shows more influence from other regions while Karnatic retains a purer Indian form. Improvisation is a key element, allowing musicians to freely create melodies and rhythms based on the raga and tala.

The Sitar is a plucked string instrument derived from the Veena used in Hindustani and Indian classical music. Finally, the Bansuri is a bamboo woodwind instrument
Indian classical music has been developing since 1700 BC into a strong tradition still practiced today. It contains ragas (melodic modes), talas (rhythmic cycles), and drone (a continuous pitch). A raga uses a scale and melody to evoke particular moods and feelings. Tala provides rhythmic structure. Drone emphasizes important notes. Performances have four sections - opening with simple improvisation, middle with greater tempo and complexity, final section with percussion and complex ideas, and closing. Common instruments include tabla, harmonium, tanpura, and sitar. Famous performers are Ravi Shankar and Alla Rakha.
The document summarizes the two main traditions of Indian classical music, Hindustani from Northern India and Karnatic from Southern India. Both share similarities like use of melodic instruments, complex rhythmic systems, and scales called ragas. However, Hindustani was influenced by migrations from the Middle East while Karnatic integrated European concepts after British rule. The key elements of melody, rhythm, harmony and instruments are also described for each tradition.
The five players on each side fall into five playing positions. The tallest player is usually the center, the second-tallest and strongest is the power forward, a slightly shorter but more agile player is the small forward, and the shortest players or the best ball handlers are the shooting guard and the point guard, who implements the coach's game plan by managing the execution of offensive and defensive plays (player positioning). Informally, players may play three-on-three, two-on-two, and one-on-one.

East Asia can be viewed as one of the big four among the generally urban, literate cultural areas of the world. The other three are South Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. Around each of these major regional cultures one can find many satellite musical systems known as national forms. In most cases, the fundamental musical concepts of such national forms reflect the basic ideals of the cultural core. For example, the musics of Iran and Egypt are of one family, as are those of France and Sweden or of China and Japan. A possible fifth addition to the “big four” concept is the Southeast Asian musical culture characterized by the use of knobbed gongs. Its documents on music theory from the 18th to the 20th century combine South and East Asian concepts with indigenous insights. Its most distinctive aspects are its instrument types and resulting ensembles and forms.
Using instrument type alone as a measure, it is sometimes possible to note cultural influences and mixtures of the major traditions in smaller units. For example, the physical structure and playing positions of various bowed instruments in mainland Southeast Asia can often mark clearly Chinese influence, as in Vietnam, or Muslim and Chinese forms in confluence, as in the various bowed lutes of courtly ensembles in Cambodia and Thailand. By the same token, the appearance of flat gongs in mainland Southeast Asia shows Chinese connections, while the knobbed gongs clearly stem from Southeast Asian culture proper.
Concepts of music
If one turns to distinctions in musical style, one of the first questions to arise is “What is music?” Two basic definitions will suffice for the present discussion. The first definition is cultural: a sonic event can be called music if the people who use it call it music, regardless of one’s own reaction to it. Similarly, certain events that sound musical to foreign ears are not music culturally if they are not accepted as such by native culture carriers. A good example of such a situation is found in the Middle East, where singing is never allowed in the mosque, though one may hear performances and even buy records of “readings” from the Qurʾān. Such cultural and functional problems of definition seldom arise in East Asian music, and a more neutral definition is appropriate. A sound event may be considered and studied as music if it combines the elements of pitch, rhythm, and loudness in such a way that they communicate emotionally, aesthetically, or functionally on the levels that either transcend or are unrelated to speech communication. Those who have been moved by a love song or a lament can well appreciate some of the implications of such a view of music. When listening to “exotic” music—i.e., that of a tradition outside one’s own background—it is important to remember that such transcendental values are at work for the alien listener as well as for listeners familiar with the particular musical language in use.

Japanese music is based on two pentatonic scales called Yo-sen and In-sen modes. It is typically monophonic in nature and uses instruments like the koto, shamisen, and various flutes and drums.

India has a rich musical tradition with both vocal and instrumental music. Vocal music includes Carnatic music from South India and Hindustani music from North India, both of which use melismatic singing. Instrumental music is classified into five categories - percussion instruments like ghatam and tabla, wind instruments like bansuri and shehnai, string instruments like sitar and sarangi, and bowed instruments like esraj. Rhythm also plays an important role in Indian music through the concept of tala, with instruments like tabla and mridangam keeping rhythm.
Carnatic music is one of the oldest classical music systems in the world with roots tracing back 4000 BC. It developed in South India and is distinct from Hindustani classical music which developed in North India. Carnatic music places strong emphasis on detailed musical compositions set to spiritual Tamil lyrics along with technical elements like intricate rhythms and ragas. It continues to be a vibrant musical tradition passed down through generations of gurus and remains deeply influential in South Indian culture.
Indian music is based on traditional sacred Vedic chants that are over 2,000 years old. These chants are accompanied by string instruments and drums, and sometimes incorporate dance. Indians believe that their traditional music has the power to positively impact nature and healing. The goal of Indian music is to convey particular moods and emotions.

This document summarizes several traditional Indian musical instruments organized by type: aerophones (wind instruments), idiophones (instruments producing sound through vibration without strings or membranes), membranophones (instruments with membranes that produce sound through vibration), and chordophones (stringed instruments). Some of the instruments described include the bansuri flute, shehnai oboe, ghatam clay pot, tabla hand drums, tanpura long-necked lute, and sarod plucked lute. Many Indian instruments have religious and cultural significance and are used in both classical and folk music traditions.
Indian classical music originated in ancient Hindu scriptures like the Vedas. It uses a system of notes like sa re ga ma that are similar to Western music's do re mi fa but uses just intonation tuning rather than equal temperament. Indian classical music places great emphasis on improvisation.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

1. Tabla Tales: Journey through
History, Rhythm, and Meditation
in Indian Classical Music
2. INTRODUCTION
A tabla is a pair of hand drums from the Indian subcontinent,
serving as the principal percussion instrument in Hindustani
classical music since the 18th century.
It can be played solo, as an accompaniment with other
instruments and vocals, or as part of larger ensembles in
various musical performances across countries like India,
Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Nepal, and Sri Lanka.
The name likely originates from the Arabic word for ‘tabl’ which
means drum, and the instrument consists of two drums of
different sizes and materials for creating treble and bass
sounds.
The smaller drum is called "tabla" and the larger drum is called
"bayan."
The playing technique involves intricate finger and palm
movements to produce a diverse range of sounds and rhythms.
3. HISTORY AND EVOLUTION OF TABLA
Origins of tabla: The tabla can be traced back to ancient percussion
instruments like the puskara and mridanga, which were used in early
Indian music and dance traditions.
Historical context: The emergence of the tabla was deeply intertwined
with the socio-cultural context of India, particularly during the Mughal
era. It was during this time that the tabla became associated with Sufi
mysticism, as Sufi saints and poets used music as a medium to
express their devotion and connect with the divine. The tabla also
received patronage from the Mughal courts, where it was performed
in royal gatherings and courtly events.
Evolutionary milestones: The transformation of the tabla from its
rudimentary forms to the sophisticated instrument we know today
was a gradual process marked by several milestones. One significant
milestone was the addition of the bayan in the 18th century.
4. THE LANGUAGE OF RHYTHM: UNDERSTANDING TAAL
Explanation of taal: The taal is defined as the rhythmic framework
governing tabla compositions, consisting of a fixed number of beats
(matras) organized into rhythmic cycles (avartans).
Demonstration of common taals: The rhythmic patterns of popular
taals like Teentaal (16 beats), Ektaal (12 beats), and Rupak (7 beats),
illustrating their rhythmic structures and subdivisions (vibhags).
Insights into improvisational techniques: Explore advanced rhythmic
concepts such as tihai (repeated rhythmic phrases ending on the
first beat of the cycle) and layakari (tempo modulation),
showcasing the virtuosity and creativity of tabla players.

5. ROLE OF TABLA IN INDIAN CLASSICAL MUSIC
Tabla as a rhythmic backbone: The tabla plays a crucial role in
Indian classical music by providing rhythmic support and
embellishment to vocal and instrumental performances. As the
rhythmic backbone of the ensemble, the tabla player sets the
tempo, maintains the beat, and adds intricate rhythmic patterns
that enhance the overall aesthetic experience.
Tabla as an accompaniment: In the realm of Indian classical
music, the tabla is a versatile instrument that adapts to various
genres and styles, showcasing its ability to enhance different
musical forms.
In khayal the tabla player supports the vocalist by providing
rhythmic accompaniment and improvisational interludes, adding
depth and complexity to the performance. In thumri, the tabla
player adds a layer of rhythmic embellishment that complements
the lyrical content of the composition.
In raga improvisation, both in Hindustani and Carnatic music, the
tabla player engages in intricate rhythmic dialogues with the lead
artist, exchanging rhythmic patterns and motifs in a dynamic and
interactive manner.

TABLA AND MEDITATION: THE SPIRITUAL ASPECT
Meditation: Playing the tabla involves intense focus, concentration, and
discipline, leading to a meditative state for both the player and the listener. The
repetitive practice of tabla compositions and rhythms can promote mindfulness
and inner peace, akin to the benefits of meditation.
Connection to spirituality: The tabla holds profound spiritual importance in Indian
culture, linked to religious rituals and devotional music. Its rhythmic patterns and
compositions can evoke spiritual connections and transcendence, enabling
players and listeners to reach elevated states of consciousness.
Symbolism and metaphors: The tabla is symbolically interpreted as representing
the cycle of life and creation, with its two drums symbolizing the duality and
balance of existence. The interplay between the dayan and bayan drums
signifies the cosmic rhythm and harmony that underpins creation, illustrating the
interconnectedness of all beings and the universe.
Healing and therapeutic benefits: The vibrations and rhythms of the tabla drums
are thought to possess healing and therapeutic qualities that benefit physical,
emotional, and spiritual well-being. Listening to or playing tabla music can have
a calming and soothing effect on the mind and body, aiding in stress reduction,
anxiety relief, and emotional balance.
