Time in Indian Music is the first major study of rhythm, metre, and form in North Indian rag, or classical, music. It presents a theoretical model for the organization of time in this repertory, elucidated and illustrated with reference to many musical examples drawn from authentic recorded performances. Written in a clear and intelligible style, it will appeal to anyone interested in Indian aesthetic forms and the study of musical time. The book includes a free CD of authentic recorded performances closely referred to in the text.
